Boston (Ladies of Cambridge) Lyrics

Cover art for Boston (Ladies of Cambridge) lyrics by Vampire Weekend

"Ladies of Cambridge" is a reference to women at Harvard. Harvard is located in Cambridge and Chestnut Park is a short walk from campus. "Raggedy wisdom falls from my hand", once again, a reference to intellect, fitting into the entire Harvard theme. Makes sense, especially because the song is titled Boston.
