But then I read about of the destruction of the 1996 Atlanta Olympic stadium in the news yesterday -
Georgia Dome: Bus drives in front of camera filming huge stadium demolition, ruining everything
Out of the ruins, out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistakes this timeWe are the children, the last generation
We are the ones they left behind
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change?
Living under the fear, till nothing else remains
We don't need another hero,
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome
Looking for something we can rely on
There's got to be something better out there.
Mmmm, love and compassion, their day is coming
All else are castles built in the air
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change?
Living under the fear, till nothing else remains.
All the children say,
We don't need another hero,
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome
So what do we do with our lives?
We leave only a mark.
Will our story shine like a light,
Or end in the dark?
Give it all or nothing!
We don't need another hero,
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome
All the children say,
We don't need another hero,
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond the Thunderdome
I don't think the signs look so good, but maybe I'm just letting my imagination run away from me?-)
"Izzy was the official mascot of the Atlanta 1996 Summer Olympics.
Named Whatizit (What is it?) at its first introduction at the close of the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, the animated character with the ability to morph into different forms was a departure from the Olympic tradition in that it did not represent a nationally-significant animal or human figure."

Let the Games begin, I guess?
