The Kids Don't Stand A Chance Lyrics - Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend

A devastating backstroke 

All the way from France 

With shiny, shiny cufflinks 

A shirtsleeve to enhance 

The pin-striped men of morning 

Are coming for to dance 

With pure Egyptian Cotton 

The kids don't stand a chance 

You criticize the practice 

By murdering their plants 

Ignoring all the history 

Denying them romance 

The pin-striped men of morning 

Are coming for to dance 

Forty-million dollars 

The kids don't stand a chance 

I didn't like the business 

But that was at first glance 

Your pillow feels so soft now 

But still you must advance 

The pin-striped men of morning 

The partners in the dance 

The paper's shot to pieces 

The kids don't stand a chance
