Lyrics

[Spoken: Kurt Cobain, [?] and Curt Kirkwood] Okay Then there was some little, uh, I think yesterday that one phrasing thing Yeah Tried to fittheword in thereand you say [?] Um, let's, let'ssave that one, let's do um... What? Shit Let's do "Plateau" first There he up and [?] [?] Hey, hey funky bunch, can we try "Plateau" one more time? We'll try with that funk beat? I was addicted to Fingerease for a long time [Verse 1: Kurt Cobain] 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 [Chorus: Kurt Cobain] Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop And an illustrated book about birds See a lot up there but don't be scared Who needs action when you got words? [Verse 2: Kurt Cobain] 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 [Chorus: Kurt Cobain & [?]] 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? [Verse 3: Kurt Cobain & [?]] 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 [Guitar solo] [Spoken: Kurt Cobain Dave Grohl] Excuse me, can someone light that candle over there? My flowers have been knocked over. Could we have someone come set them back up? We spray some Fingerease on the candles please
