Vampire Weekend – Ottoman Lyrics | 14 years ago |
actually it is CARDS not cars. it wouldnt make sense if it was cars. the lyrics show that it takes place in the 1800's if not around that time. tweeds were used more commonly back then, 6 bells a ringin symbolizes a traditional church wedding, which was much more common, if not the only way to get married back then sitting for portraits doesnt usually happen these days, unlike wealthy families back then. besides, "all of the cards" is a metaphor for all of the steps (like for a wedding) |
