The Big Pit

Lyrics

The big pit’s a museum now
Maybe Fords will be one too
Caught my fingers in this Japanese guitar
And I was wondering
What is it that we are ever going to do.
Sell tickets? Park cars? Give out ice-creams to some visitor from Mars?
No one is laughing in this no-amusement park
The only song I hear is ‘Dancing in the Dark’.

Like they are dancing down in Dollywood
Just like they’re dancing out in Disneyland
Welcome to this great theme park
Call it ‘Tierra’, we’ll call it ‘Dancing…
Call it ‘Tierra’, we’ll call it ‘Dancing…
Call it ‘Tierra’. We’ll call it ‘Dancing in the Dark’.

The big pit is a museum now
Maybe Fiat will follow suit
I could dress up like Mickey Mouse
You could be Pluto
Wow! we’d both look pretty cute.
Small wages but big ears
We’d both be here till the last job disappears
Two more creatures who are waiting for the Ark
And the band on board are playing ‘Dancing in the Dark.’

Like they are dancing down in Dollywood
Just like they’re dancing out in Disneyland
Welcome to this great theme park
Call it ‘Tierra’, we’ll call it ‘Dancing…
Call it ‘Tierra’, we’ll call it ‘Dancing…
Call it ‘Tierra’. We’ll call it ‘Dancing in the Dark’.
