Vampire Weekend - Harmony Hall Lyrics
We took a vow in summertime
Now we find ourselves in late December
I believe that New Year's Eve
Will be the perfect time
For their great surrender
Anger wants a voice
Voices wanna sing
Singers harmonize
Till they can't hear anything
Thought that I was free
From all that questioning
But every time a problem ends
Another one begins
Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight
Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
Within the halls of power lies
A nervous heart that beats
Like a young pretender's
Beneath these velvet gloves I hide
Of money lender
'Cause I still remember
Anger wants a voice
Voices wanna sing
Singers harmonize
Till they can't hear anything
Thought that I was free
From all that questioning
But every time a problem ends
Another one begins
Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight
Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness
Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight
Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die
And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness
Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight
Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified
I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die

Vampire Weekend Harmony Hall Comments
I've listened to the album too much...I always hear the beginning of 'Bambina' after this song ends haha
I have a fear of snakes. So for the longest time I avoided this video and I must admit it was hard, watching this.
This is song being nominated for a Grammy as best Rock song is another bad joke. They are talented, but this is not Rock
Congrats on the Grammy nod,Vampire Weekend!
Mero temazo

in all ways yummy
Absolute Shit
best vampire weekend song ever
ive gotten to the point where i want to die because i live like this
Oh hello there...Jonah Hill
I like the song, but the video is a little boring...
Lol. Real good. Real. Good. Good. Lol...
I don't want to live like this
But I don't want to die
Doble Nueve 99.1
La radio Rock en Lima 🇵🇪
Why does this song sound like Bleachers: I wanna get better???
This song describes how I feel about church and religion!
Absolutely LOVE Vampire Weekend! They KILLED IT in 2019!! Way to go guys!!
Joy to the world: Madchester is back!!!! That groove in the refrain, layers of sequenced drum patterns, is so end of the 80's... I loved it back then and it keeps on putting me mental on today.
♥️♥️ they make me so happy
such a hot maths teacher.
Kind of sounds like the Grateful Dead near the end.
all of this screams the 90's but its actually 2019
i dont get what is it supposed to be with him cooking?????
This is very evil
Great song. Dumb lazy video, sadly.
I hear Grateful Dead, Paul Simon, the Rolling Stones, They Might Be Giants, and Phish...but I like it.
How TF are they making those pancakes?!
he looks like roose bolton of GOT. little bit xd
I'm literally downloading something while listening to this! XD
In my eyes this is the song of 2019.
Good stuff. Doesnt have that extremely distinct sound Vampire Weekend had early on but still pretty good
Great song, outstanding musicianship. Thanks for sharing the joy, humour, professionalism, energy and commitment to your craft.
Don’t mind me, I’m just here for the pancakes.
The melodies and riffs are dope in this song.
this song reminds me of eating a pancake
Feed your snake bro, he's been begging you for eggs the whole video. 🥚🐍
I got the amazon music ad just before the song
Ezra is so hot!!!!!
I already knew this dude was going to be trash ripping off other people's songs
I like this song
Those drum fills tho
it sound like Vampire weekend . Go you good thing boi.
Just forget the lyrics and tone of this song is killing 😶😍
I like it. Reminds me of Paul Simon for some reason.
I feel like heard this in 2013
This is just ass idk how people listen to it and feel happy like wtf
Discovered this song while watching them do an interview with the singer about how they slowed down and stretched out the melody to make it airwave friendly.
Very catchy, I must say. I shall see what some other tracks sound like, maybe?
Temazoooo!!!
I just love this band! They are so innovative. Their sound is so unique. They never disappoint.
All it needs is Bez dancing around
Jonah Feldstein makes me sick
You guys listen to this you stink.
Jk you use axe b wash you’re good. 🖖🏻
Old guy here, seeing the video for the first time...
FAIL: Egg eating snake was not shown gulping the egg, to end the video.
WIN: Great song and great people otherwise, just left us hanging. Or is this new generation you toob political correctness? No snake eggs, eh?
I want a Vampire Weekend Cooking Special
Muito bom !
im checking out vampire weekend because of zach from try guys bahaha XD
I thought this song was about shooting heroin, in Chicago. But, either way, I could be wrong. I thought it was about me. HOW SELFISH.
Vampire Weekend never disappoints.
I think is like a tribute to the 90s music videos...
this is definitely a political commentary song right
I want some them pancakes;((
I want to make those pancakes
this video is too inactive for the bouncy upbeat music of the song...it should be an active, dancing video!
See you at Okeechobee
the way he sings the first two lines, both tone and lyrics remind me of a song from like 20 years ago and i cant put my finger on it and im just going to go insane.
I’m gonna say it...
Ezra Koenig is adorable the same way a puppy is adorable
This is a Newsboys song
Hey, who's listening in 2019?
All I hear is Grateful Dead. Touch of Grey and Friend of the Devil.
Relax soldier....Embrace the new Grateful Dead of the 21st century and be thankful.
Don't be a party pooper old man...heh?
That snake looks rather cute. Look how he's smiling!
like a fine wine, I am hearing George Michael, Freedom, Happy Mondays, Belle and Sabastian.
Any fake news peeps left today, like how does he look the same at 9 and 30, just look at damn pancake where is his mom and why does he have a pet snake. This is brilliantly elegant
very stone roses vibes
Like the London Times says ,could be Grateful Dead with a decent singer
Such a cool song dudes I feel young again back when my kids were babies yes
🧛♂️ VAMPIRE
WEEKEND 🧛♀️
just start it at 3:42. Run to the end. Repeat indefinitely.
Congrats to Vampire Weekend on your album of the year nomination at the grammy. Father Of The Bride is my favorite album of 2019.
They are nominated for 2 grammys and a third grammy for Ezra Koenig for Best Rock Song "harmony hall"
AMEN!! 👌🙌 Not to mention landing in the top 100 worldwide for album sales! They're killing it.
grammys😍😍😍
Another nominee for the Grammys best rock song that is absolutely not rock music. I am depressed.
true true
I'm just glad they're getting awarded for this stuff. Plus they're kinda genre-bending so 🤷🏼♂️
Such a good vibe, thank you for these, I am on the bus going to the office and the light in my face shine brighter listening to this vibe!!! Enjoy the day and the rest of your life!!!! 🐻💚🐻💚🐻
98% GD and it’s awesome.
imagine caring where people heard the song from
This is the most aesthetically pleasing video ever
This song gives me the feeling of a lover who found a better life long after me in the most bittersweet of ways
"Hey McFly!!"
Great song! not sure about the video but this just may be one of the best Songs I've heard from a rock artist in years! It's like a great Paul Simon song mixed with some Dead and Who.
Better than Mac lethals dumbass pancake video
love this, if you like this check out Ripple by the grateful dead
Grateful Dead vibes.
suuuuuuccchhhhhh a beatiful songggggg. rhythms of the 90s was so dope!
Totally getting lost in their music rn 💚💚.
These guy's suck balls like a gay vampire
where is jerry, i was promised jerry
Hi there!
I play instruments and sing and record myself!
I think music deserves all our love and respect!
Tell me how bad I suck with a comment or two

I DONT WANNA LIVE LIKE THIS, BUT I DONT WANNA DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Vampire Weekend goes and puts out this fantastic gem of a song, but then shortly thereafter they release the dreadfully awful This Life.
Say that again I will throw my phone against the wall
still laugh every time I hear this song in the background in those hotel commercials 8-)
Yes, me too! I figure someone thought they'd play a joke on their bosses who didn't listen to the lyrics...
