            Many a hand has scaled the grand, old face of the plateau
            Some belonged to strangers, some to folks you know
            The Holy Ghost and the talk show hosts are planted in the sand
            To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands
                                                                                                   G#2

                             Nothin' on top, but a bucket and a mop
                                         G2                                 Bb
                             And an illustrated book about birds
                                             G2                        Bb          F2
                             You see a lot up there, but don't be scared
                             G2                                   Bb         F2
                             Who needs action when you got words
                                                                                              G Bb  G Bb  G Bb  F2 (x2)

            Finished with the mop, then you can stop
            And look at what you've done
            Plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen
            And the work, it was fun

                             Nothin' on 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
                                                                                              G Bb  G Bb  G Bb  F2 (x2)

            Many a hand's began to scan around for the next plateau
            Some say it is Greenland, some say Mexico
            Others decided that it was nowhere except for where they stood
            But, those were all just guesses, they'd help you if they could...
                                                                                                                      G#2  Bb2

                                                                                                      A2 D2 C2  A2 F2 C2 (x6)
