The Statue Got Me High

The statue got me high, the statue got me high A monument of granite sent a beam into my eye The statue made me die, the statue made me die It took my hand it killed me and it threw me to the sky The stone, it called to me And now I see the things the stone has shown to me A rock that spoke a word An animated mineral it can be heard And though I once preferred a human being's company They pale before the monolith that tower's over me The statue got me high, the statue got me high The truth is where the sculptor's chisel chipped away the lie The statue made me fry, the statue made me fry My coat contained a furnace, where there used to be a guy The stone, it called to me And now I see the things the stone has shown to me A rock that spoke a word An animated mineral it can be heard And as the screaming fire engine siren filled the air The evidence had vanished from my charred and smoking chair And what they found was just a statue Standing where the statue got me high And what they found was just a statue Standing where the statue got me high And now it is your turn Your turn to hear the stone and then your turn to burn The stone, it calls to you You can't refuse to do the things it tells you to And as the screaming fire engine siren fills the air The evidence will vanish from your charred and smoking chair And what they found was just a statue Standing where the statue got me high And what they'll find is just a statue Standing where the statue got me high
