Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau
Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know
Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand
To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands
There's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you got words?
When you've finished with the mop
Then you can stop and look at what you've done
The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen
And the work it took it was fun
There's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you got words?
The many hands began to scan around for the next plateau
Some said it was Greenland, and some said Mexico
Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood
But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could
