Lyrics for The Equestrian Statue

There once was a very famous man On his famous horse he'd ride through the land The people used to see him everywhere When he died, they put a statue in the square (hooray) Here comes the Equestrian Statue Prancing up and down the square Little old ladies stop 'n' say "Well, I declare!" Once a month on a Friday there's a man With a mop and bucket in his hand To him it's just another working day So he whistles as he rubs and scrubs away (hooray) Here comes the Equestrian Statue Prancing up and down the square Little old ladies stop 'n' say "Well, I declare!" It's a sight to bring you joy, you feel so gay And it's guaranteed to brighten up your day If it's gray (hooray) Here comes the Equestrian Statue Prancing up and down the square Little old ladies stop 'n' say "Well, I declare!" It's a sight to bring you joy, you feel so gay And it's guaranteed to brighten up your day If it's gray Feel so gay Feel so gay Feel so gay Feel so gay Feel so gay
