Anthony Frank "Tony" Hawk (born May 12, 1968), nicknamed "The Birdman" is an American professional skateboarder and actor. Hawk gained significant fame for completing the first 900 as well as his licensed video game titles distributed by Activision. He is widely considered one of the most successful and influential pioneers of modern vertical skateboarding.
Raised in San Diego, California, Hawk was described as being "hyperactive" as a child. His parents supported his skateboarding because it served as an outlet for his excessive energy, and as Hawk's skills developed, he became a professional skateboarder at age fourteen. In 1999, he became the first skater to land a 900. In 2002, he created the Boom Boom HuckJam, an extreme sports exhibition and tour which launched in Las Vegas.
Throughout his career, Hawk has made numerous appearances in films and other media, as well as his own series of video games. He has also been involved in various philanthropic activities including his own Tony Hawk Foundation which helps build skateparks in underprivileged areas, and also including collaborations with other athletes in the charity Athletes for Hope.
There's only one of you parked on a bridge
Wondering if the radio is playing
If you're crazy or there's voices in your head
You've got a heart so big goes all the way to California
Where the water hits the land I hope your folks'll understand
The city is dark but we're not scared
Wrapped up in each other
Making loving out of nothing like the air supplier said
You've got me so far gone I'm past Governor's Island
I'm past the Verrazano Bridge I'm past the Verrazano Bridge
You come and you glow and you hum and you hover
I cannot believe that you're my lover
You come and you glow and you hum and you hover
I cannot believe that you're my lover
I cannot believe
Later in a room picture of a girl
Doesn't do her justice what it does is make you realize
You ought to be with her
I'm talking 'bout right now I mean this instant
When the hip'll meet the hand I hope your folks'll understand
You come and you glow and you hum and you hover
I cannot believe that you're my lover
You come and you glow and you hum and you hover
I cannot believe that you're my lover
I cannot believe that you're my lover
I cannot believe that you're my lover
You're my lover
You're my lover
