MGMT - In The Afternoon Lyrics
In the afternoon
Yellow curtains drawn
Designed with comfort in mind
Glowering into the night
Feel like letting go
The house cat knows when it's time
To enter another phase
But you looked sad
In a reassuring way
And I don't want to leave
So we can both be the same
In the afternoon
Modern sovereignty
And we lost the game
Brains like nesting dolls
Plotting their escape
The doorman sees you're alone
He can't seem to find your name
But you my friend
Know problems can't be solved
And they don't understand
And somehow it's all the same
And somehow it's all the same
And somehow it's all the same
And somehow it's all the same
Relief is like candy
The sweetest kind of love
Who'd guess that I'd feel this way?
Like a kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store

MGMT videos would be so much better if their faces weren't in it.
2020 will be year of the goth - so ready to hear more stuff like this from MGMT
Love this so much. They even added the little video info at the bottom at the beginning. Takes me back.
My Vel-our-ia
The intro sounds real similar to the lavender town theme song

Anyone know what painting is at 1:21?
I Need it

Its called “The Toilet Of Bathsheba”
Esta canción me salvó del suicidio.
I remember these guys, they opened for Nirvana in 96.
The cure

This song is a grower
Theese guys must do so much acid
lyrics could be fine but the music kills it for me. just sounds too tripped out and weird
<3 good job my boys.
The colors Duke! The colors!
Curto muito essa banda
Nah its not for me im afraid
I’m getting Genesis and Beatles vibes from this. I love MGMT
not too shabby y'all. Glad to see you putting out some music again :D
If you like the extreme of these band maybe you might like also an italian PsychoBand. That's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TN2Ki-S_eCU&list=OLAK5uy_lereVb_mPaySdMm-zeVvj7zfC7tunS67A
YES!!!!!!
This sounds like early Pink Floyd and I’m LIVING I love it
We need an album like this song
Little Dark Age...

i used to have a crush on andrew when i was a teenager, now i'm an adult and i have a crush on ben lol
Mgmt: In the Afternoon...
Me: I make sandwiches.
Mgmt: Yellow curtains drawn, designed with comfort in mind.
Me: Is it 1973?
Excellent song dudes.

Reminds me of the legendary pink dots
I thought that was Terence mckenna
The cure ? Et tu ?
Wow Im in love with this help 🥵

hard candy?

this is probably the greatest song I've ever heard
I Love you MGMT!!!
Holy crap, welcome back MGMT. Joy Division vibes...
Eh more so cure vibes
J'ai l'impression d'être déchirée sur un canapé à une soirée dans un sous-sol en écoutant ça
How trippy this video is makes me really jealous that I can't find any psychedelics, not even cannabis. I'm gonna dislike out of spite.
I luv u Andrew 💖
this is the closest you can get to a high dosis of lsd without taking lsd. i feel like it's even closer to dmt, haven't tried it though.
I watched this at 666k
I am the 666, 666th view
LOVE IT WOAH
You are baaaaaaaack 😙
💜💜 from Kazakhstan
80s goth?
Still praying MGMT gets saved by Jesus so they can make some Godly worship music. How old are they and they still acting like high schoolers or something.
no me gusto
a mi si
Merry Xmas mi Suki...C U soon...promise...i kno U miss her my green eyed bby doll🖤💜💗💋
Every song they make harkens back to Ghostbusters. I just imagine little MGMT listening to the Ghostbusters song and having their little minds blown
Why does it sound so off key?
i love this song! best christmas gift! thanks MGMT Records!
what a amazing music video, mgmt have great aesthetic taste
Its too dark imo. Its dont sound like MGMT.
Electric Feel type of thang were better.
sounds... like donnie darko new movie soundtrack
A KID IN A CANDY STOOORE
some people say this is a grower.
full respect.
but this is a 100% shower.
not the kind to cleanse yourself within.
although you could try that.
i would.
Is this Indie?
🔥🔥
Y thanks we needed some kind of new song to dance to at the golf club
Touches a place in my mind only the doses usually reach
I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG!
I first heard it on Christmas day, my husband and I were cruising around the neighborhoods to see the decorated lawns. The eerie/cheery vibe combined with the colorful lights... like a kid in a candy store.... so perfect, because Christmas is supposed to be joyful, but it's quite depressing at the same time... Broken family trying to remain intact and sane through the chaos that we call "the holidays".
I cannot stop listening to it. Thank you mgmt for this! I needed something to match my mood in these confusing times.
80's throwback. i like it.
"Terrance Mckenna was reincarnated, just to give this video an even more psychedelic theme. Sadly he crystallized back into the DMT realm before we could get any of his usual wise insight on his adventures there."
It's like pornography era Cure covering Velouria by Pixies while on robitussin. excellent!
Yes it does
This song makes me feel like I’m listening to MGMT for the first time, amazing artists can do this. Also I’m high, ¡puñeta yo les amo con toda mi alma!
Cool song. Reminds me of "love my way" by the psychedelic furs.
Welcome back ❤
This song summarizes something that I cannot about how I've felt lately.
Amazing..
"any ideas for a music video?"
"Uhhh yeah just smoke some DMT and write down what you see"
warming up to this faster than expected
