Statue of Liberty
Jill Sobule
When we started migrating
Across this great land
I should have know we'd never cross
Dancing hand in hand
You were my consolation
Maybe my booby prize
Fat chance I'd ever see
The horizon in your eyes
Went to see the Statue of Liberty
Feeling we'd have nothing to prove
And though they call it a Statue of Liberty
I swear I saw it move
I swear I saw it move
Yeah, when you showed me that Statue of Liberty
I believed I heard a song I could sing
But it's only a Statue of Liberty
Not the real thing
Not the real thing
Not the real thing
Developing the footage
At the finish of the trip
In retrospect it's obvious what made the camera slip
At a malt shop
In a booth
You offered me this charm
I knew you had no earthly reason to do me any harm
Went to see the Statue of Liberty
Feeling we'd have nothing to prove
And though they call it a Statue of Liberty
I swear I saw it move
I swear I saw it move
Yeah, when you showed me that Statue of Liberty
I believed I heard a song I could sing
But it's only a Statue of Liberty
Not the real thing
Not the real thing
Not the real thing
Not the real thing
Not the real thing
