Song | Plateau |
Artist | The Orb |
Album | Orbvs Terrarvm |
编制:田园 | |
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 | |
The 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 was fun | |
Well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau | |
Some said it was in Greenland and some in Mexico | |
Some decided it was nowhere except for where they stood | |
But they were all just guesses, wouldn’t help you if they could |
