XTC - Statue of Liberty

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 oh oh oh 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 stony book
A little jealous of the ships with whom you flirt
A billion lovers with their cameras snap, 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 oh oh oh oh
My Statue of Liberty
Boo boo
Impaled on your hair
What do you do do do to me
Boo boo, said, pop me

Oh oh oh oh oh
My Statue of Liberty
Boo boo
Impaled on your hair
What do you do do do to me
Boo boo, said,

Oh oh oh oh oh
My Statue of Liberty
Boo boo
Impaled on your hair
What do you do do do to me
Boo boo

Liberty
Liberty
Liberty
