"No damage to the statue, thank goodness, only what she stood for."
"I felt it needed to be done"

The songs of Lady Liberty

I thought you were going to complain about the christian symbols that Charlie de Leo painted inside during his years as the "keeper of the flame." The little guy is a zealot and had a big cross painted in there as part of his daily pilgrimage to the torch. He retired a dozen or so years ago and I hope someone painted out his personal shrine.

here is the "body" of her text
performed in the begininng by speaking slow like Issac Hayes in 'by the time I get to Phoenix' then speading up to a ballad and morphing into a quick monster rap rhythm.



In a
marriage that
changed more than her
name, the abuse
had left deep lines
of pain.With a hint of a
frown and a need to cry
weary ol Liberty sat down.
Beneath the weight
of cloak and crown
with a sad glaze
in her eye
Mother Liberty gathered
herself and raised her glass
on high   "A toast to the years
when I was strong.
To the parents who sang my song.
To children who'll cry when I am gone.
and to corporations to which you now belong.
To the harlot that seduced your father and the people
who could not be bothered ,Remember my name when
I'm a corpse My name is NOT Liberty Corp. I used to live
in the old Constitutionand for those who yearned to be free.
Now I'm homeless and stripped by resolutionpaid for by men of
great greed" She then took a drink of the bitterness and
sweetand calmly looked down at her feet   There we were ,
but we allseemed sound asleepWe were watching pay TV ...
"Nothing can stop me"yelled the man who says we're too free.
Lies taught to extend political careers made my radio cry.
Fears tears and radio smears praised the young men who
fought andl died I believe the media complied to oily men who lied
about god and our national pride. You would think they know better
but their crimes in their letters and that is how they got caught....
It's by neglect that Liberty dies. Many don't hear her
cries over the din of cheering TV...smoothing lost lives and lies.
If you don't know what she told you she never will hold you   and you'll
never be all you can be.   I could say "I told you, they're trying to mold you
but its only through your eyes you'll see. Like kids who steal the most toys
out of greed without joy or regret paid for with the national debt "we need more",
they scream. Men sent to the gutter will never be free .
If you complain you're a communist from a psychotic populace ,
a blood sucking flea in their midst. They'll send the police and you'll pray
for release or pay a great fee and be fleeced. For those that recover
they remember their mother, Liberty standing proud!
Some are astounded that people are grounded when CONS
run the nation aground. Despite empire backlashes
and the economy crashes   Liberty still holds her ground.
She survives the schools; she survives high tech tools
that bend elections for fools, she rises from ashes
defeating the fascists who paid great fortunes to rule.
WHO is in Washington DC today, home of the
red white and blue?    There are no angels or devils
liars with shovels its just people like me or you.   
There are men with agendas like the brothers Menendez   
with vendettas as dark as a whore.   But presented
with wealth and luck of good health    they are just kids
in a candy store.   If you had their moneydipped in
tax honey   you might do the same and more.   
First thing you need is to satisfy greed Its the power
and cash you adore.    So you give some to friends   
who you hope in the endwon't try to steal back whats yours.   
Your friends need their favors   in green dollar flavors
or armies to capture yet more.    Right now they're all spoiled   
with all of that oil You've seen their glee on TV   
So lets all take a pause    and forgive them because,
They all just want to be free. Recently I have seen a
lot of people blameing Allah or Christ
I saw people who couldn't find truth no matter
what they would do and people who didn;t know Budda
from the grand Wazoo. If you PAY for god,
Creation is not for you
If you are not merciful you missed Allah too.
Look inside and ask yourself,    Is it words
that you believe? Have you confused the metaphor and
worship Christmas Eve? If your doubt is large
you may have missed the point.
You listened to a guy "in charge"
that God did not appoint   
If you're not a Santa your presents will be few.   
\If these words offend you I'll tell you what to do   
Look inside and ask yourself
Is it words that you believe ? Have you confused the metaphor
so only you deserveto be free?    You need to stand for liberty,
She stood a long time for you
