This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I am a wannabe, you'd better be careful around me
I come from far away where Mustang dreams are made
And we are fashioned in the image of the dons who have come before us
We all kiss the rings of sand like our fathers told us
'Cause I'm a wannabe gangster, better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack
Better go back to far away
Like a lemon pie a-la-mode, my nine is easy to load
All hail Jericho, Turnpike Tech, that's where I go
To learn the things about the universe I'll need so I can build a stampede
Because I'm all up in your face again, I'm all up in your face
'Cause I'm a wannabe gangster, better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack
Better go back to far away
A wannabe gangster, a victim of the chromosome prankster
I thanks ya, I sits back in my chair to contemplate my hair
(Damn)
But yo, I'm looking snappy, I'm nappy, I'm crappy
Got jimmy hats from Pappy, so now I'm trigger-happy
(Girl, did he just rhyme "nappy" with "crappy"?)
Yeah, so
You girlies wanna get with this nit-wit, got Cheez Whiz or not?
Then I might have to blow up your mailbox, or biatch
Or toilet-paper your front yard
Show the cops my suburbs card
They got to let me go, 'cause they know that I'm hard
It's the deal, it's for real
You better listen what I'm tellin' you
'Cause I'm a wannabe gangster
Hey, I'm a wannabe gangster, better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack
Better go back to far
Better go back to far away
I come from far away where Mustang dreams are made
And we are fashioned in the image of the dons who have come before us
We all kiss the rings of sand like our fathers told us
'Cause I'm a wannabe gangster, better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack
Better go back to far away
Like a lemon pie a-la-mode, my nine is easy to load
All hail Jericho, Turnpike Tech, that's where I go
To learn the things about the universe I'll need so I can build a stampede
Because I'm all up in your face again, I'm all up in your face
'Cause I'm a wannabe gangster, better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack
I'm a wannabe gangster, you better go back to Commack

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.
