Vampire Weekend The Kids Don't Stand A Chance lyrics

 
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
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/v/vampire_weekend/the_kids_dont_stand_a_chance.html ]
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

This is about kids being manipulated by older, more knowledgeable big boy execs, bosses, ceos, anyone. They're taken with the lifestyles of rich guys, ignoring past ideals to keep up in any way they can.

It's about smooth talking wall street execs and business men

This is about the enticement of wall street (capitalism) to young, fertile, creative minds who might otherwise make a difference or do something non-money related.

Its about heroin coming to the u.s. Through france... I believe its "the devil stayed in backstroke" and its "mourning" not morning... "by murdering the plants"= burning the opium plants

It's about how adults think of kids and how bad it can get. Some people do believe that just because kids are younger.. That they don't stand a chance. I love you vampire weekend
