Statue Of Liberty Lyrics

(words and music by Andy Partridge)

One two, one two three four

The first time I saw you standing in the water
You must have been all of a thousand feet tall
Nearly naked, unashamed like Herod's daughter
Your love was so big, it made New York look small

You've been the subject of so many dreams
Since I climbed your torso

 Oh, my Statue of Liberty
 Impaled on your hair what you did to me

I leaned right over to kiss your stony book
A little jealous of the ships with whom you flirt
A billion lovers with their cameras snap to look
And in my fantasy I sail beneath your skirt

You've been the subject of so many dreams
Since I climbed your torso

 Oh, my Statue of Liberty
 Impaled on your hair what you did to me
