This one thing probably never goes away
Isn't it amazing any thing's accomplished
Caught in some eternal flexed-arm hang
And all I remember is sittin' beside you
Isn't it amazing you can do anything?
Droppin' to the mat in a fit of laughter
You were loosenin' my grip on Bobby Orr
You held my hand and we walked home the long way
Temporary towers soar
Isn't it amazing what you can accomplish
When you don't let the nation get in your way?
No ambition whisperin' over your shoulder
Crisis of faith and crisis in the Kremlin
'Til there are no stars shining up in heaven
'Cause that's what we thought married people do
Fireworks emulating heaven
We hung out together every single moment
Isn't it amazing you can do anything?
'Til there are no stars anymore
And I never saw someone say that before
Next to your comrades in the national fitness program
It's wintertime, the house is solitude with options
Fireworks exploding in the distance
And believing in the country of me and you
I think this one thing is always supposed to stay
And no ambition whisperin' over your shoulder
Temporary towers soar
'Til there are no stars anymore
Complete with the grip of artificial chaos
Isn't it amazing what you can accomplish
Oh, isn't it amazing what you can accomplish, eh?
Not one ambition whisperin' over your shoulder
When the little sensation gets in your way?
We all squeezed the stick and we all pulled the trigger
Showed no patience, tolerance or restraint
And loosening the grip on a fake cold war
And ya, we'd heard all of that before
You said you didn't give a fuck about hockey
Fireworks aiming straight at heaven
When the little sensation gets in your way?
