There is nothing else like it. The wind in your face. The extreme speeds you can only get from skiing. The air and acrobatics you can do off a jump. Nothing but you, a piece of plastic, and the ice (or powder, whatever you prefer to ski on). "Nothing else compares"-Jake Zamansky (US Olympic Skier)

Here's the lyrics in Swedish:
Nu får det bli allvar
Hunnerna ska bort
Bad om starka killar
Vad är ni för sort?
Är det sämsta gäng jag nån'sin sett
Blir inte lätt, men fattar du
Att jag ska göra män av er nu
Lika lugn som skogen
Lika stor som den
Samla kraft inom er
Gå mot vinst igen
Men jag ser ni är
Ett hopplöst gäng
Fattar ingenting ännu
Men det ska nog bli män av er nu
Jag klarar inte av det här
Det är rena rama natta´
Borde nog ha gått på gymmet då och då
Han skrämmer ihjäl de där
Hoppas att han inte fattar
Borde nog ha lärt mig simma eller så
Bli en man!
Vänd aldrig om när ni ser ett hinder
Bli en man!
Ni äger styrkan och kraft att tro
Bli en man!
Eld, luft och vatten har samma styrka
Tillsammans så kan ni bygga er en bro
Tiden rinner från oss
Snart så blir det strid
Lyd min minsta order
Får ni ro och frid
Kämpa för vår jord
Är mitt sista ord
Annars återvänder du
Hur kan jag göra män av er nu?
Bli en man!
Vänd aldrig om när ni ser ett hinder
Bli en man!
Ni äger styrkan och kraft att tro
Bli en man!
Eld, luft och vatten har samma styrka
Tillsammans så kan ni bygga er en bro
Vänd aldrig om när ni ser ett hinder
Bli en man!
Ni äger styrkan och kraft att tro
Bli en man!
Eld, luft och vatten har samma styrka
Tillsammans så kan ni bygga er en bro
