Foreign places, there's none left to explore
got back to nature, but now we're all quite bored
this mountain, do we know what we're climbing it for

you're not a hero, to do it now this time
of that we're certain, go ahead and climb
no surprise, that everybody doesn't care much anymore

cause we've done it once
yes we've done it once
the risks that you are taking
won't be quite as breathtaking
now on the second run

whatever happens, don't make a song and dance
you climbed it quicker, not many give a damn
on and on, does anybody think it's news we're looking for

I guess we're learning, that it's more boring now
the world is turning, 'gainst explorers now
satellite pictures taking
some pictures of the parts we didn't think we'd see

cause we've done it once
yes we've done it once
the risks that you are taking
won't be quite as breathtaking
now on the second run

the stories told of the adventures on the climb
will seem less impressive, you've got GPS this time
and can find, the end

cause we've done it once
yes we've done it once
you've done it once again
and there's a litter bin
now on the second run
