The View From Above letra

This scene is set on a mountain slope.
Hooray! Where the happy deer and the antelope just play all day!
Surgin' through the virgin snow with you (and you, and you)
I'm in heaven climbin' up the view!
Why would one look up at the sun?
I just love the view from above!
What man has seen such a lovely view?
Oh, joy! A world of ants, and as easy to destroy!
Gazing down on hazy townfolk...
we can see it's all a stupid joke
like the sun looking down with love.
We have won the view from above!
