Plateau

[00:21.71] Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau

[00:27.28] Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know

[00:32.87] Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand

[00:38.44] To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands

[00:45.61] Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop

[00:48.27] And an illustrated book about birds

[00:50.92] You see a lot up there but don't be scared

[00:54.11] Who needs action when you got words

[01:08.90] When you've finished with the mop then you can stop

[01:11.20] And look at what you've done

[01:14.29] The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen

[01:17.21] And the work, it was fun

[01:21.52] Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop

[01:24.18] And an illustrated book about birds

[01:27.10] You see a lot up there but don't be scared

[01:30.02] Who needs action when you got words

[01:44.72] Well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau

[01:50.30] Some say it was Greenland and some say Mexico

[01:56.14] Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood

[02:01.98] But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if theycould
