lyrics

STATUE GIRL

If I was a statue
would I look just like I do?
only so much colder
and so much whiter
than I’ve been in any winter

naked I guess
I hope
like all my favorite statues are
standing proud
without the need of a fig leaf
that’s the kind of statue girl
I would want to be

statue girl
your eyes seem to see beyond you and me
can you show me?
can you show me statue girl

you’ve got such authority
unencumbered by modesty
but do you ever feel that life is passing you by?
in the closed and quiet night
do you look outside
through the French door glass
do you see the wet green grass
do you long to feel it in between your toes
feel the night air tickling your nose

ah-ahchoo!
statue girl
come on, play with me
there’s so much you should see
can I show you?
c’mon, let me show you
statue girl
your eyes seem to see beyond you and me
can you show me
can you show me statue girl?
