Step - Vampire Weekend
Every time I see you in the world
you always step to my girl

Back back way back
I used to front like Angkor Wat
Mechanicsburg Anchorage
and Dar es Salaam
While home in New York
was champagne and disco
Tapes from LA slash
San Francisco
But actually Oakland
and not Alameda
Your girl was in Berkeley
with her Communist reader
Mine was entombed
within boombox and walkman
I was a hoarder
but girl that was back then
The gloves are off the
wisdom teeth are out
What you on about
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bones
I'm stronger now
I'm ready for the house
Such a modest mouse
I can't do it alone
I can't do it alone
Every time I see you in the world
you always step to my girl
Ancestors told me
that their girl was better
She's richer than Croesus
she's tougher than leather
I just ignored all the tales
of a past life
Stale conversation deserves
but a bread knife
And punks who would laugh
when they saw us together
Well they didn't know
how to dress for the weather
I can still see them
there huddled on Astor
Snow falling slow to the sound
of the master
The gloves are off the wisdom
teeth are out
What you on about
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bones
I'm stronger now
I'm ready for the house
Such a modest mouse
I can't do it alone
I can't do it alone

Wisdom's a gift
but you'd trade it for youth
Age is an honor
it's still not the truth
We saw the stars when
they hid from the world
You cursed the sun
when it stepped to your girl
Maybe she's gone and
I can't resurrect her
The truth is she doesn't need me
to protect her
We know the true death
the true way of all flesh
Everyone's dying
but girl you're not old yet
The gloves are off the wisdom
teeth are out
What you on about
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bones
I'm stronger now
I'm ready for the house
Such a modest mouse
I can't do it alone
I can't do it alone
The gloves are off the wisdom
teeth are out
What you on about
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bones
I'm stronger now
I'm ready for the house
Such a modest mouse
I can't do it alone
I can't do it alone
Every time I see you in the world
you always step to my girl
