Plateau - Meat Puppets
Many a hand has scaled
The grand old face of the plateau
Some belong to strangers
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 actions when you got words
When you're 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
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 actions when you got words
Well the many hands began to scan
Around for the next plateau
Some said it was Greenland
And some said Mexico
Some decided it was nowhere
Except for where they stood
But those were all just guesses
Wouldn't help you if they could
