its not plasticine, it is pleistocene, as in "the pleistocene era." its like saying you're old, and he is refering to the aforementioned era of the twentieth century. it's like he's expressiong a feeling of loss about the old time movies. Whenever I hear this song, I get a mental image of a washed up actor driving up on mullholland drive and feeling like he is the king of the world, because he is above all of hollywood and everyone looks like ants to him and all the lights of the city are visible. if it's a love song, the object of his affection is the hollywood movie.
