Statue of Liberty

Well, the people walk all around the thing
On an island very, very far from here
They pay it homage like a god
And they paint it on each and every year

A sign above, it was given to us
And we all appreciate the god
The tourists don't know and never will
It has no use, its meaning is gone

The Statue of Liberty
And for united we stand
We all agree, it's a mystery
But why'd they give it to us?

We still don't know just why it came
A present from God or by the rain
The crowds swarm wildly to see its peak
When I watch, I go insane

Why is it so important to them?
What is the beauty they see in it?
I don't know why, I just accept it
I don't want it, 'cause it makes me sick

The Statue of Liberty
And for united, we stand
We all agree, it's a mystery
But why'd they give it to us?
