Cover art for Young Lion lyrics by Vampire Weekend

This was in the presser that came with the album:

In the stressful final weeks of finishing Contra, Ezra was anxiously walking to the studio when a complete stranger stopped him, smiled and said "You take your time, young lion." When he met Rostam at the studio, he told him about this strange encounter. Shortly thereafter, Rostam wrote this song. It's now the coda to MVOTC –a final message of hope.

That's really interesting, thanks.

Was there anything given about the other songs.....could you post that as well?
