The Kids Don't Stand A Chance by Vampire Weekend from their self-titled debut album. For listening purposes.
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
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

Great song. Makes me feel good. Don't know why people are talking about B.o.B.

Honestly, for a rapper B.O.B is pretty good, unlike most rappers his music isn't all about money, sex, hoes and haters, he's very talented (especially for a rapper), he also sings and plays multiple instruments and has a nice cover of Kids by MGMT, and if he covers stuff by MGMT and VW, well then he also has pretty good taste. I wouldn't buy his album but he is good at what he does. Also, his version of this has Janelle Monae (who once opened for VW in London) and she's also brilliant.
