Of Montreal performing Oslo In The Summertime live at the Heineken Music Club, Esplanade Theatre Studio at the Mosaic Music Festival in Singapore on 15 March 2009. This is the second of 2 sets they played back to back that night (7.30 and 10pm), and the only set where they played this song.
Oslo in the summertime
Nobody can fall asleep
I'm staring out the window from my bed
At 4 a.m. the sun is up
Look the sky is pepppered with sea birds
And with crows all cackeling
HVA?
Up in tre ten Heimdalsgate
Me and Nina making fun of footballers
In Rudolph Neilson Plass
I practice my Norwegian on poor beffuddled waitresses
Who shake their heads completely at a loss
Oslo in the summertime
The streets are strangely quiet cause
Everyone's away on holiday
HVA?
Oslo in the summertime
Pakistani children play locked
Inside of the courtyard
All day
Pretty people everywhere
Sun lamp tans and flaxen hair
Just tell the American not to stare
HVA?
I would kill to be this close!
