This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Listen to them fight
Hear your mother cry
Weekend at your dad's
They don't know what they do to you
Teenager
Wrap yourself in black
Listen to The Cure
Love-line wont call back
They don't know
They don't care
They don't see
But I do
And if it feels good do it
Cause if it tastes fine drink
Well, there's a range of possibilities to find
Teenager, teenager
No one knows your name
No one hears your cry
Fall in with the fringe
Cause they know what you're going through
They do
And if it feels good do it
Cause if it tastes fine drink
Well, there's a range of possibilities to find
Teenager, teenager
No one's wrong
No one's right
It comes down on you
I have found your life
Inside mine
Hear your mother cry
Fade into the night
And when they ask you why
They won't know
They won't feel
They won't see
But you will
And if it feels good do it
Cause if it tastes fine drink
Well, there's a range of possibilities to find
Teenager, teenager
Hear your mother cry
Weekend at your dad's
They don't know what they do to you
Teenager
Wrap yourself in black
Listen to The Cure
Love-line wont call back
They don't know
They don't care
They don't see
But I do
And if it feels good do it
Cause if it tastes fine drink
Well, there's a range of possibilities to find
Teenager, teenager
No one knows your name
No one hears your cry
Fall in with the fringe
Cause they know what you're going through
They do
And if it feels good do it
Cause if it tastes fine drink
Well, there's a range of possibilities to find
Teenager, teenager
No one's wrong
No one's right
It comes down on you
I have found your life
Inside mine
Hear your mother cry
Fade into the night
And when they ask you why
They won't know
They won't feel
They won't see
But you will
And if it feels good do it
Cause if it tastes fine drink
Well, there's a range of possibilities to find
Teenager, teenager

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
about an average teenager i spose, at least nowadays this is what it is like...
I can really relate to this song. My parents are going through a divorce and I hear my mother crying in her room at night. And sometimes I feel like no one can see me and nobody cares.
this song is so awesome because it's so cliche'd but it's so true for a lot of people...see, it's cliche'd, but only Better Than Ezra thought to write about it, that makes it unique. I love these guys....
Most of this song is the life of almost every kid I knew in high school. Part of it was the dream of every kid I knew: They don't care, But I do. Everyone wants to be understood. I thank God I'm not a teenager anymore.
This song has the coolest chord progression of any song.
Yep, average teenager alright... that feeling that nobody understands or cares leads to the lyrics, "They don't know/They don't care/They don't see." And today, society is obsessed with throwing alcohol down young people's throats, anything to make a buck. So they capitalize on the slogan, "If it feels good do it."
