Statues Lyrics

They'll build statues in our likeness

They wanted to be like us

But did they ever like us anyway?

(We always) gave em the cold shoulder

Our shoulders just got colder

They deserve an elbow to the face

I'll build this monument just to tear it down

(Tear it down now)

And dedicate it to this bitter town and this broken sound

And I'll send postcards to enemies

Made sure to sign and date each one while singing

"Wish you were here"

And I'll send postcards to enemies

Made sure to sign and date each one while singing

"Wish you were here"

Wish you were here

I'll build a throne

Made from the bones

Of those who died searching for gold

Just to find it's found inside our hearts

"What a jip"

You'll hear them say

Tossing, turning in their graves

All this time searching in vain for what?

Blowing kisses to the masses

In this ticker-tape parade

We're saints of this backseat

Swear to God we've got it made

(Got it made)

And I'll send postcards to enemies

Made sure to sign and date each one while singing

"Wish you were here"

And I'll send postcards to enemies

Made sure to sign and date each one while singing

"Wish you were here"

I wish you were here

Today, we're making history

Tonight, we'll take it to the streets

Tomorrow, we'll live in infamy

We're under attack

Pull the knife from our backs and hold it to their throats

And I'll send postcards to enemies

Made sure to sign and date each one while singing

"Wish you were here"

And I'll send postcards to enemies

Made sure to sign and date each one while singing

"Wish you were here"

They'll build statues in our likeness

They wanted to be like us

But did they ever like us anyway?
