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 |
|
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 was fun |
|
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 |
|
Many hands began to scan around for the next plateau |
|
Some say it was Greenland and some say Mexico |
|
Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood |
|
But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they could |
