Step (remix) Lyrics - Singles - Vampire Weekend

Every time I see you in the world, 

You always step to my girl 

Back, back, way back 

When I used to front like Angkor Wat 

Mechanicsburg, Anchorage, and Dar es Salaam 

While home in New York 

Was champagne and disco 

Tapes from L.A. 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
