Vampire Weekend - Houston Dubai

Houston, Dubai
Dubai to Houston
The country's young
But the land is deep

Houston, Dubai
Dubai to Houston
I just wanna wake up
Where I went to sleep

As this old world keeps turning
Me through my fever dream
Houston just did ninety-nine
Dubai's one-eighteen

Houston, Dubai
Dubai to Houston
The country's young
But the land is deep

Houston, Dubai
Dubai to Houston
I just wanna wake up
Where I went to sleep

I got a wife back home you know
She always thinks I cheat
I think about those dead end days
When life was light and sweet

Every time I think I'm done
The plane keeps flying back
And every race beneath the sun
Just takes another lap

Houston, Dubai
Dubai to Houston
The country's young
But the land is deep

Houston, Dubai
Dubai to Houston
I just wanna wake up
Where I went to sleep

I know the price, I know the map
But don't know what it's worth
So let the thieves and killers
Take my treasure on the Earth

Houston, goodbye
Goodbye to Houston
The country's young
But the land is deep

Houston, goodbye
Goodbye to Houston
Now I'm gonna wake up
Where I went to sleep
