| Song lyrics |
They made a statue of us
And it put it on a mountain top
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum
Take photographs have fun, have fun
They'll name a city after us
And later say it's all our fault
Then they'll give us a talking to
Then they'll give us a talking to
Because they've got years of experience
We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
We wear our scarves just like a noose
But not 'cause we want eternal sleep
And though our parts are slightly used
New ones are slave labor you can keep
We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
The tourists come and stare at us
The sculptor's marble sends regards
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Were living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious

it is a good song this is true, but what does it mean?
i think maybe its about that time when you just realised that the world is not what you thought when you were young, you see youre living in a den of theives trying to find the answers to your problems. and we never find them untill finally theres a time (when you die) and are at peace and people finally know you were meaningful and remember you (with statues and naming cities) and its not that this song is about killing yourself, no its not, its that i think this song means once you realise that the world can be evil you can find happiness in the little things like bubble gum and photographs while you still have time. its like the song is telling us to enjoy our lives. maybe thats not what it means but, i know thats what it means to me and whenever i hear it i think of things i am thankful for like the love of my boyfriend. its a great song, regina spektor has talent!
so please what do you all think the song means? or better yet, what does the song mean to you? | 21-02-2006 14:44 SomeOldGirl |  2 posts
| Great song. This is the first song i've heard of her's and it's lovely. The part about They'll name a city after us
And later say it's all our fault reminded me of Russia (Stalingrad)... | 10-03-2006 23:03 bolivianKid |  8 posts

Hey fellow "us" fans! i love this song, and as i have gathered so does everone else!
To me it means that despite everything that happens, and everythig we see and hear on the news, there is always good things happening too. Even if it is just the smallest thing that makes a person smile even for a second then it was worth doing it. As i listen to it now, it makes me feel happy because i know that no matter how much people try to pull you apart and look at every detail of you to try and find something wrong, they will always find good things!
Mushy i know but hey its how i feel bout the song!  | 28-05-2006 18:12 BenMused |  7 posts
