Statue of Liberty by Descendents Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1982

[Verse 1]
Well the people walk all around the things
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 for all, it was given to us
And we all appreciate this bomb
The tourists don't know and never will
It has no use its meaning is gone

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

[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
The Statue of Liberty
And for united, we stand
We all agree, it's a mystery
But why'd they give it to us?
