Vampire Weekend - M79 Lyrics
It's going to take a little time
While you're waiting like a factory line
I'll ride across the park
Backseat on the 79
So go I know you would not stay
It wasn't true, but anyway
Pollination yellow cab
You walk up the stairs
See the French kids by the door
Up one more flight
See the Buddha on the second floor
So go, I know you would not stay
It wasn't true, but anyway
Racist dreams you should not have
No excuse to be so callous
Dress yourself in bleeding madras
Charm your way across the Khyber Pass
Stay awake to break the habit
Sing in praise of Jackson Crowter
Watch your step along the arch of glass

Vampire Weekend M79 Comments
love this band!! all the songs awwww!
New to the Vampire faithful mid 2019. I got all their old stuff now. What a treasure trove...!
The start sounds like something from The Sims.
The singer sounds like Paul Simon my uncle though it was him when I played it one day.
Ezra lists Simon and Garfunkel as one of his inspirations for his music. You can't really deny the similarity if you know S&G
Nnms, ta bien verga 👽
2041 anyone
Heart and Hand brought me here...
The first 34 seconds of this song have been my ringtone for the past 2 years.
Ah Jeez.......I set mine up a few weeks ago (before reading this). Great minds with great taste think alike, heh?
Love the way they do quick cuts to each instruments almost like a question/ answer ....while much going on in the background..A visual video of this type of song would be dynamite.
Classic vw
Ezra gets possessed by the ghost of Mozart during the chorus
I get much more of a Bach vibe on this tune but i pick up what you're putting down
It's gonna take a little time
While you're waiting like a factory line
I'll ride across the park
Backseat on the 79
Wasted days you've come to pass
So go, I know you would not stay
It wasn't true, but anyway
Pollination, yellow cab
You walk up the stairs
See the French kids by the door
Up one more flight
See the Buddha on the second floor
Coronation, rickshaw grab
So go, I know you would not stay
It wasn't true, but anyway
Racist dreams you should not have
No excuse to be so callous
Dress yourself in bleeding madras
Charm your way across the Khyber Pass
Stay awake to break the habit
Sing in praise of Jackson Crowter
Watch your step along the arch of
No excuse to be so callous
Dress yourself in bleeding madras
Charm your way across the Khyber Pass
Stay awake to break the habit
Sing in praise of Jackson Crowter
Watch your step along the arch of glass
If you went to the OKC show on the FOTB tour then you have PTSD from this song
this song reminds me of f. scott fitzgerald's this side of paradise
oh romeo...
Personally my favorite vampire song and I love this group and have seen live 3 times..I wish it was more
Baroque pop... wow
FUUUUUUUUUCK THIS TOOK FOREVER TO FIND
This song again was not that good verging on okay. This song’s combination of classical and somewhat indie rock doesn’t do it for me. It had a pretty catchy melody but the mix was just kinda ehh. 2.5/5
I'll give you a thumbs up on the promise you will watch the M79 Pitchfork Live version here. Watch it twice. I'll check back and see if you edited your post after viewing. You're just one step away from getting what all the fuss is about.

I love the guitar sound in this one
I bet 100 cash that you saw the meme with the corgi and you were like i need to find that song
Renaissance Polka™
WAIT WHAT????? THIS IS VAMPIRE WEEKEND?!! OH MY GOD I'VE HEARD THIS SONG FOR SO LONG AND I NEVER KNEW
Fucking love this song.
And I'm here because I'm going through their entire discography because they came out with "Harmony Hall" and "Unbearably White". Dang is this amazing! I'm glad I love music so much
I CAN’T FIND THE VINE EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT
this song sounds like a wes anderson movie
feels like it Too
@DAISHORYUJIN 95 whats the diff between sounding and feeling lol?
Música que marcou parte da minha vida, muito boa mesmo! Amo Vampire Weekend! 🎶💜
Seeing them this summer at Northerly Island, Chicago!
I love Vampire Weekend, but I just realized that this is the song in the Corgi meme. Lol
One of the most underrated songs in history. Watch this gain relevance in a 2030s hipster film.
Tbf I never thought a band nowadays called "Vampire Weekend" Would sound like this... lol
@david gold I know, right? You'd think it was some sort of an emo band. Lol
@Lily L fr tho
0:34👌
Don't lie if you're not a Vampire Weekend fan you came here from the corgi vine
I came here from a good childhood
I'm usually into heavier stuff, but my piano teacher found one of their books so I looked them up and I kinda like them
Börk börk
They released a new song and now I am going back through some of their old ones. Wonderful band.
One of my friends shows me this band 1 month ago, i know i'm more fan than her. I'm literally obsess It him.
Right, this group is a pop phenomenon, I really love when Ezra and Rostam were a team making these blissful songs
I love how Vine is bringing so many people together here, what a great song :'))
Dude what the fuck it’s called “Vampire” and it’s so fucking happy
Un comentario latino. Ésta rola me quitó las ganas de matarme y hoy día vivo muy feliz.
This song was my childhood ☝🏻😤
All of their songs were my childhood 😭💕
Dancing corgi vine? Lol 😂😂
For some reason this reminds me of Moo moo meadows from MARIO kart wii
Oh wow....you're right!

I found this song because it was used in a vine of a woman bouncing a dog in her lap such that its legs flopped about; but this song was definately worth the search.
This feels like something that would have been popular in the 50s/60s
not really
i originally heard this song from a vine with a dancing corgi and now its been two years and vampire weekend is my favorite band
Dude same
years later and vines have brought so much joy
I originally heard this song from the lifetime movie marry me, starring Lucy liu! Great song 💗
The vine
Here from that dog vine
Adri Esco yes me to
anyone else here cause of the dog meme 😂😂
how did you know😂
Can you pass me that meme please?
Yessssss
79 dislikes
I uhh....came here from a dog spinning its legs in a vine. at least I found it.
@ViaLik InCenT its called "vines rarer than a good night's sleep" on 3:32
Literally me too
SAAAMMME
Strings are underrated and fall foul of syrupy connotations
This song makes me not wanna die :D
Suicid is all up to you - just remember how it may effect others.

Always have to come back to the amazing music that is vampire weekend 😄
Wow my favorite song by them is not popular at all
top 20 best albums of all time!!
Cory Klein Couldn't agree more and a VERY underrated album from a very underrated band!
Cory Klein
This album and Contra are both on that list
Cory Klein what are the other 19 tho
Cory Klein
This is probably the best “indie” album start to finish that was ever made.
And certainly in the top 20 of any genre.
Highly enjoyable music. As good as Handel or Bach, etc.
Are those cowboys yelling at 1:18?
yes, yes they are.
You know it!
2:24
Best part.
It’s this
I faped thoo that bit
@Liakk Does Stuff ur rite

Beautiful
