Beau - Everything's Possible lyrics

Guess it was three or four thousand B.C. That somebody wanted to shift some debris, But all that he had was a mangy old goat So one sunny day, he put on his coat And he went to a friend who heard his appeals Who said, "Funny you ask, I've invented these wheels! You see, we can do anything under the sun. Everything's possible once it's been done!" Well, move things along for a few thousand years, And a sailor man suddenly pricked up his ears. For centuries, he'd been losing his way. He said, "I'm all at sea at this time of the day!" Then an old friend from Chinatown came to his aid. He said, "Check out this compa**. It's something I made. You see, we can do anything under the sun. Everything's possible once it's been done!" Around 1440, a writer of tales Was guaranteed over a million sales. The book was so hot, it was bound to be banned But each of them had to be copied by hand. "My old pal," said Gutenberg, "maybe, unless… Well, I just invented the first printing press! You see, we can do anything under the sun. Everything's possible once it's been done!" Now, no one can blame anyone who complains In Victorian times of malodorous drains. We'll never know whether it was fortune or fate Brought Alex G. Bell stepping up to the plate. Alex said, "Son, you can easily moan Because luckily, I just invented the 'phone! You see, we can do anything under the sun. Everything's possible once it's been done!" If memory serves, it was late '28 My friend, Alex Fleming had mould on his plate; A remarkable thing he'd pulled out of the box And guaranteed finally to sort out the pox. "I looked in the mould and I found Penicillin," He told me, "I'll try it on you if you're willing! 'Cos, we can do anything under the sun. Everything's possible once it's been done!" "I want to know all that has ever been known!" I'm talking to Tim Berners-Lee on the phone On the twelfth day of March in I think '89. He whispered it quietly over the line 'Cos Tim never wanted to be a celeb; "Between you and me, I've invented the Web! You see, we can do anything under the sun. Everything's possible once it's been done!" It's a long twisting road. There are turnings and bends But believe it or not I have many more friends With a million ideas. They're keen and they're mean And still as inventive as they've ever been. So keep your eyes open – they will come around With thoughts and ideas that will truly astound. You see, we can do anything under the sun. Everything's possible once it's been done!
