Step
Vampire Weekend feat. Danny Brown Heems Despot Lyrics

Every time I see you in the world, you always step to my girl
Whenever I see you around, you always make a move on my girl

Back, back, way back, I used to front like I was Don Juan
I used to act like I was a ladies' man

Couldn't settle down, couldn't find a girl to hold on
I could never commit to a girl, couldn't find someone to be with

Used to get my roll on, hit the spots and stroll on
I used to party and move on to the next one

Now I found one with a hand I like to hold on
But now I've found a girl that I care about and want to hold onto

Every time I'm with her, dudes always wanna stare
Whenever I'm with her, guys always look at her

I be staring back like, "You don't wanna go there"
I stare back as a warning not to mess with her

Used to didn't care, now I hit you with a chair
I used to not care if someone talked to her, but now I would fight back to protect her

If it just so happen, touch a string on her hair
If someone even touches her hair, it's a problem

Now me and shorty wop spending more and more time
Now me and my girl spend more and more time together

So since she got my heart then I gotta have her spine
Since I care about her so much, I have to protect her

And if any fool try to come for what's mine
If anyone tries to take her away from me, they'll regret it

A pair of size nines where the sun don't shine
They'll get kicked real hard in a sensitive area

The sugar in my Kool-Aid, boo gets me through days
My girl is my source of happiness and makes my days better

Swear to God, one day I might watch her throw a bouquet
I could see myself marrying her one day

Said, "Nowhere on this earth, nowhere in this world I should ever, ever see you stepping to my girl"
I don't want anyone to be making a move on my girl, ever

That's my old girl, my old girl from college
Talking about a girl that I knew in college

I always think about her when the leaves turn orange
I associate her with the fall season

Yeah, we went to Wesleyan and she scoffed at Vassar
We went to school at Wesleyan, and she thought Vassar was inferior

I met her at a wine and cheese, I looked right past her
I initially didn't notice her at a social event

Apparently, she would notify me right after
But then she made her interest known to me

I smashed her the first night, the first pipe's the worst pipe
We hooked up the first night, which usually isn't great

But after, I satisfied thirst like, "Mmm"
But afterwards, we had a good time together

The pastor would satisfy the church like
We had a really good time together

She lived in WestCo and she studied frescoes
She lived in a certain dorm and studied certain art

And head to toes, she stayed in the best clothes
She always dressed really well

I represent Queens, she would move out to Brooklyn
I'm from Queens and she moved to Brooklyn

Never thought that she would have her precious heart took-en
I never thought she would fall in love

By a shy, brown guy from Bellerose
But she did, by me - a shy, brown guy from Bellerose

That stayed in shell-toes, until Hell froze
I wore Adidas shell-toes and would keep wearing them even in bad weather

Her freckles dance on her porcelain skin
She has freckles on her pale, smooth skin

It's like, she's got a special force within
She has a special energy about her

And I been high, but ain't no higher place
I've been really happy in life, but being with her is even better

Than alongside her by the fireplace
Being by the fireplace with her is a particularly good moment

Act like you ain't even seen me standing next to her
Don't try to flirt with her right in front of me

I'll tie your kicks together if you ever try and step to her
If you make a move on her, I'll mess with your shoes

Must be why you trippin' when I ask you, "Why you stressin' her?"
That's why you get upset when I ask you why you're bothering her

Passing notes and texting her, I'm 'bout to shoot the messenger
If you're talking to her behind my back, I'm going to get upset

Used to smash, slap 'em on the ass and go away
I used to just hook up with girls and leave

They ask when I'ma call 'em and I hit 'em with a poker face
They expect me to call them but I act like I don't care, with a blank expression

Coldest shoulder known to blow a load
I give the most cold, uncaring response

Then leave 'em froze and skate
Then I leave them without any explanation and go about my life

Magnum wrapper in the trash, I told them, "Nothing gold can stay"
I dispose of the condom I used and tell the girls that nothing lasts forever

Who's she? Guess I turned over a new leaf
Who's that? I've changed my ways

Now I'm choosing groups 'A' through 'D' over groupies
Now I'm choosing to spend time with normal people instead of just groupies

Lose sleep, lately only counting on these two sheep
I have trouble sleeping lately and only rely on counting sheep to help

You and me, baby, skippin' town up on these coupe seats
Me and my girl are going on a trip in a car together

Must've broke the mold when they made you
You're one-of-a-kind, unique in the best way possible

Probably broke a nail or two flippin' off these lame dudes
You probably flipped off some lame guys and even broke a nail doing it

Hollerin' in plain view, on some, "What's your name, boo?"
Yelling in public, asking her what her name is

Barely had a dollar and a dream, but it came true
I didn't have much going for me, but I ended up with her

The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out What you on about?
Stuff is getting serious, so what are you talking about?

I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house
I can feel it in my body, I'm ready to move forward and settle down

Such a modest mouse, I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone
I need her help and support, I can't do it alone

(Every time I see you in the world, you always step to my girl)
Repeating the same theme, warning other guys to stay away from my girl
