Vampire Weekend

The Kids Don't Stand A Chance
A devastating backstroke All the way from France With shiny, shiny cufflinks A shirtsleeve to enhance The pin-striped men of morning Are coming for to dance With pure Egyptian Cotton The kids don't stand a chance You criticize the practice By murdering their plants Ignoring all the history Denying them romance The pin-striped men of morning Are coming for to dance Forty-million dollars The kids don't stand a chance I didn't like the business, But that was at first glance Your pillow feels so soft now But still you must advance The pin-striped men of morning The partners in the dance The paper's shot to pieces The kids don't stand a chance Aus Songtexte Mania
