Vampire Weekend Lyrics for Song: Ottoman
 Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Vampire Weekend
 
 
 
 36452>Ottoman couch, how handsome your furniture
 
 Lovelier now, but dressed for a funeral
 
 Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
 
 To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
 
 
 
 Elegant clothes, you want to be seen with her
 
 Under your tweeds you sweat like a teenager
 
 Begging you to sit for a portrait on the wall
 
 To hang in the dark of some parliamentary hall
 
 
 
 Today is for you
 
 They laid it out for you
 
 For you
 
 There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you
 
 But this feels so unnatural to Peter Gabriel, too
 
 
 
 All of the cards and all of the time it took
 
 Soon it's all lines of red in a leather book
 
 Begging you to wait for a minute by the door
 
 Your creeping feet where they've never been before
 
 
 
 Today is for you
 
 They laid it out for you
 
 For you
 
 There will be six bells a-ringing and white women singing for you
 
 But this feels so unnatural Peter Gabriel, too
