Plateau

[00:24.83] Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau

[00:29.88] Some belong to strangers, and some to folks you know

[00:35.46] Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand

[00:41.30] To beautify the foothills, and shake the many hands

[00:48.74] Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop

[00:51.67] And an illustrated book about birds

[00:54.06] You see a lot up there but don't be scared

[00:56.71] Who needs action when you got words

[01:11.32] When you've finished with the mop, then you can stop

[01:14.24] And look at what you've done

[01:16.90] The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen

[01:20.35] And the work, it was fun

[01:24.60] Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop

[01:27.26] And an illustrated book about birds

[01:29.92] You see a lot up there but don't be scared

[01:33.10] Who needs action when you got words

[01:47.71] Many hands began to scan around for the next plateau

[01:53.02] Some said it was Greenland, and some say Mexico

[01:58.87] Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood

[02:04.71] But those were all just guesses

[02:07.63] Wouldn't help you if they could
