Big Love Part 1

There’s a statue of the Redeeming Christ on a mountain near Rio De Jeneiro, The faithful of Brazil count on him to keep them on the straight and narrow. With his hands spread wide he does his best to give their heartstrings a tug, But do any of them ever stop to think that what he needs might be a hug? But the girl from Ipanema’s arms aren’t long enough to wrap around his neck, And she just doesn’t have the height she needs to give him a little peck. He feared that the day might not ever come when he’d find his one true love, He’d have to be satisfied with his mountain top and gazing from above. Then one day he overheard a tourist talking about a statue named Liberty, When they spoke her measurements he thought to himself, “Now that’s the girl for me.” Her height was listed in the brochure as being one hundred and fifty feet, And Jesus knew that a gal her size would make his life complete. So late one night he left his stand and while the city of Rio slept, He decided that he was going to meet this girl so down the mountain he crept. He learned that she lived on a harbor island outside the city of New York, He was happy to hear that she wore a robe like his so he didn’t feel like such a dork.
