Artist/Band: Vampire Weekend
Lyrics for Song: Mansard Roof
Lyrics for Album: Vampire Weekend [2008]



I see a mansard roof through the trees

I see a salty message written in the eaves

The ground beneath my feet

The hot garbage and concrete

And now the tops of buildings, I can see them too



I see a mansard roof through the trees

I see a salty message written in the eaves

The ground beneath my feet

The hot garbage and concrete

And now the tops of buildings, I can see them too



The Argentines collapse in defeat

The admiralty surveys the remnants of the fleet

The ground beneath their feet

Is a nautically-mapped sheet

As thin as paper

While it slips away from view
