"Sympathy" lyrics
"Sympathy"
I think I take myself too serious
It's not that serious
Alone in someone's bedroom, she firmly took my hand
The isolation ended, I began to understand
In the ping-pong match of constant desire
I was never gonna get ahead
'Cause I was looking in the mirror
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
Judeo-Christianity, I'd never heard the words
Enemies for centuries, until there was a third
In the ping-pong match of constant desire
I was never gonna get ahead
'Cause I was looking in the mirror
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
Diego Garcia, surrounded by the waves
Lonely in the ocean, but in every other way
It was full of love
In the warmest fellow-feeling
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
I didn't have your sympathy, but I knew where to start
Explaining to you patiently that the one who broke my heart
Would have broken yours
And thrown the pieces in the river
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
Sympa—
Sympa—
Let's go
Sympa—
Let's go
Sympa—
Let's go
Sympa—
Desperate for an enemy, but too afraid to kill
Use the pain of someone else and triumph for their will
And spill the blood
Of the arrogant mosquitoes
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
Thanks to slayer for correcting these lyrics.

Ezra Koenig told on Beats 1, "That's the most metal Vampire Weekend's ever gotten with the double bass drum pedal."
One of the song's ideas is, allegedly, that Christianity and Judaism are allies because they have the common enemy, Islam.

SOAK - "Déjà Vu" I haven't seen you for months
I've been waiting up on a call
The stranger's voice to ask if I'm sitting down
No one does say it, but we're thinking the same thing
No one does say it, but we're...
Paul Simon - "Can't Run But" I can't run but I can walk much faster than this
Can't run but

Trees and umbrellas protect us...

More love
All along em
I can hear me
I go for the caste
I fall off a bass boat
And the concrete's very slow

All along the sideliness bigger
I'm over the dash...
