Lyrics

There's always celebrities somewhere To make all the wannabes stare Elaborate spooling of interest spun out like thin air So don't do me any more favors They're just tagged and filed away And I'll not stand up as a villain in your upwardly martyred display No one's holding a gun to your head-stock No one's hoarding the keys to your dead lock No one said this was ever a sure shot You take risks like the rest She traveled Alaska with poodles More than six days on a sled The notion was more than unlikely but stuck in her head 'Till she's gliding along over tundra And speeding past huskies with grace Nobody thought that the woman and poodles could win the Iditarod race No one chooses to struggle in vain No one else is defending your name The unmarked horizons remain It's all there for the risk And whose rules are you breaking? It's all there for the taking She traveled the Arctic with poodles To most an hysterical sight But to see her walk round after they'd all bed down In the ground-breaking Arctic night
