The sixth verse of the song "Appleton Song" sung by Garrison Keillor of A Prairie Home Companion.
"And then a bridge over the river Fox.
And a man gets out of his car and walks
There on College street is a large ugly statue
That looks like a phallus coming straight at you.
It is called "The Fox River Oracle"
And one hopes it is only metaphorical."
