Vampire Weekend - Ottoman Lyrics
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
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
Soon it's all lines read 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 to Peter Gabriel, too

Vampire Weekend Ottoman Comments
I'm disappointed by how unavailable this song is
Wilo Polis it is a single from 2008 - 2010... Judging from the cover it was supposed to be in Contra from Vampire Weekend !
@FLYOUS I heard it was like a bonus track on some releases of Contra
@FLYOUS Also hOLY CRAP THIS ACCOUNT IS STILL ACTIVE
Yeah What's up? Mm-hmm.Yeah it's me. Haha!! Yeah I'm back baby Cudder.
Added to infinite playlist...
I've been looking for this god damn song for months
wat a fun song. i keep coming back to it
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, 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

Luke Shepard hey you don’t say that! Cudi is the best rapper ever. Most realest.
Luke Shepard thank you!!!
Hey luke, your 6 years older now. Hows life been? Any relationships end? Any kids or change in career goals?
@TheCalmingPants it ain't in any of the two studio albums : it's from 2008 film "Nick & Norah Infinite Playlist" soundtrack ... never seen it tho !
FYI : Theophilus london also sampled Vampire Weekend in a couple songs "Give it up to dad" being my favorite... cheers :)
I'll stick with Cudi's version I think.
