Miss Liberty Songtext
von Dayna Kurtz

I′m miss liberty - give me your junkies
Your irresponsible drummers
I've swept my halls clean of clean
Your kitchen raiders
Your wingtip dayrunners

Go plant your flags and make your promise
To my promised land
And we′ll make love to the new frontier
In the hot beach sand
You'll hold me like a drowning man
You'll come at me too human
And drag me down again
And leave me broken like a spine
Split open like a melon dropped from a high
High place


I like this country
She′s like a whore
Who loves her junkies
Who loves all her sad outlaws
Lifting her skirt to tease and flirt
With the wretched
Who′ve washed up at her shores

When we die I hope someone's god
Takes us in like immigrants
And we′ll make love in the leftover light
Of heaven's tenements
You′ll hold me like a drowning man
You'll come at me too human
And drag us down again
You′ll leave me broken like a spine
Split open like a melon dropped from a high
High place
