24 Hours to Ride the World

Well, I’ve crunched the numbers: (Yes, I know: Muuuuuuh, not again!) But: look, look, that is simply logical.: You attach a swivel joint to the North Pole, but why cycle the 40,000 km along the equator? It would be enough to cycle at the 53rd parallel at the height of Berlin, other do it, too! Sure, you could go to the North Pole, and cycle around it 5 or 10 metres distance. But BOY YOU CAN WALK there!!! So, safety goggles on and a helmet to your head: READY, STEADY - GO! ---------- [Verse 1] Spin the globe, bolt it tight, north Pole joint just spins all night. Weld a quarter, weld it true, bike won’t drown - it’s got a screw! [Pre-Chorus] 1,670 clicks? Earth’s got the pace, 40,000 klicks in one day’s race! But why pedal when the world’s a wheel? Just hold on tight - that’s the deal! [Chorus] 24 hours, no time to stop, Liverpool to Berlin - ZOOM! - drop! Slap the bass, rev the chain, 1,000 clicks - pain! - but we’ll sustain! [Verse 2] 53rd line, Berlin’s my guide, 24k klicks - just take a ride. Dublin, Liverpool flash by, CHEERS? Nah - just wind in my eye! [Bridge] North Pole spin? Ice isn't thin, five meters round? That’s a sin! Speed’s the game, but here’s the twist: BOY YOU CAN WALK there, in this icy mist! [Outro] Could it be done? Maybe not… But damn, the dream sure hits the spot!
