The National-Lemon World
Album: High Violet ; Release Date: May 11,2010; Aritst: The National; Song: Lemon World; Track No.:7; So happy I was invited Gave me a reason to get out of the city See you in sidewalks and swans on TV Living and dying in New York, it means nothing to me I gave my heart to the army The only sentimental thing I could think of Cousins in causes somewhere overseas But it'll take a better war to kill a college man like me I'm too tired to drive anywhere anyway right now Would you care if I stay? You can put on your bathing suits And I'll try to find something on this thing that means nothing Losing my breath, do do do do do do do do do do Losing my breath do do do do do do do do do do do do do do You and your sister live in a Lemonworld I want to sit in and die You and your sister live in a Lemonworld do do do do do do do do do do do do do do You and your sister live in a Lemonworld I want to sit in and die You and your sister live in a Lemonworld do do do do do do do do do do do do do do This pricey stuff makes me dizzy I guess I've always been a delicate man Takes me a day to remember a day I didn't mean to let it get so far out of hand I was a comfortable kid But I don't think about it much anymore Lay me on the table, put flowers in my mouth And we can say that we invented a summer lovin' torture party I'm too tired to drive anywhere anyway right now Would you care if I stay? You can put on your bathing suits And I'll try to find something on this thing that means nothing ...

Best nostalgia line ever.

Best coke line ever.

You are so lucky…I have seen both seperately, and they are amazing, but together…..you are probably going to see the concert of your life.
LOVE this track! Just went hiking through Spain last year and used this on the soundtrack of the video I made. Check out my uploaded videos – Part 1 features this song about half way through.
LOVE this song! I actually used it on a little video I made of a hike I did in Spain last year. Check out Part 1 of the videos I’ve uploaded. Lemonworld kicks in towards the end. Summed up the mood I was in …. Anyways, check it out if you have time

It’s not really a bad thing though. They may not be receiving the credit they should be given, but this way; they can keep true to music and keep to the purpose of this; The pure enjoyment of music from them to others.
these guys are just…amazing.
They’re headlining Lattitude (UK) and I’m going so every time I hear any of their tracks I try to imagine how good it’s going to be live with 1000′s of ppl there and even better, many of those ppl will carry the word of how good this band are and hopefully lead to better recognition. Ahmen!!
@YNameBad Seen them 7 times. You’re in for a treat.

@alafossb
beautiful comment..
@gshurtleff75 O RLY?
this is an incredible song, especially when you ramp up the sound with headphones
@supermagicmushroom They’re one of the best headphone bands I’ve ever heard. So much warmth and richness in the sound. Stereo systems just don’t do it justice.
3 people are to tired to drive anyway
Kind of a coïncidence as the national made a Song for Portal 2 and lemons were one of Cave johnson’s subjects of talking…XD
@gshurtleff75 reallly? no way? realllllllllly?
I can’t believe I JUST discovered this band. I feel like I’ve missed out on years of awesomeness.
“Lay me on the table, put flowers in my mouth
And we can say that we invented a summer lovin’ torture party.”
I’d so love a book written by the mind that thought that one up!
@hubbabubblesmax i guess different people get the same feeling of “soothing yet so full of energy” from different songs because they have different tastes, and if this song was advertised and told about to more people it would probably get more thumbs down because the majority of population have a slight different taste otherwise this song would have been more famous already.
amazing!!! really amazing!!
love every bit of this album!
I think it’s even better if the lyrics go like this : “you insist in living in a lemonworld” it kinda resembles to a world where you fell safe but where you cant be, i think it’s more beatiful that way.
@Abbytater couldn’t agree with you more!!! Heard about them only yesterday.
Such a good song. Makes a change, all you get on t.v. is mainstream bullshit full of choreography or people singing about how fabulous they are.
