Statue of Liberty

Xtc


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 
Boo Boo 
Impaled on your hair 
What do you do 
Do Do to me 
Boo Boo 

I leaned right over to kiss your stoney 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
