rob walmart - the huge irreplaceable statue lyrics

Loading...

[spoken word]
things grew, things got bigger
the man made a huge irreplaceable statue

thousands of people who traveled to see it
wore special hats so that they would remember

though the instants they captured are tough to discern
clearly imagine the people that day

it was raining, the spectators blossomed umbrellas
there were many with bicycles and some had ice cream cones

expecting the statue to establish its fact
because there were no statistics to accompany its being there

saying why should we crave explanation of things
considering we can not remember our births

saying who dared to say that the man was not finished
when the rest was declared so complete when he died

saying follow the pattern in the history of sculpture the sequence seems destined despite innovation
because history is a huge irreplaceable statue
and our memories are histories with wrought hands
some hundred years later the people with maps
stop in to eat at the place on the way

here is a waitress who’ll count as she pours
she usually gets to eight, she counts obsessively

she tells the people that its just back that way
that it’s simply so huge that they must not have seen it

some stay for the story of her wedding day
how her children were peculiar in that they were born old
