This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
You walk in like you've never seen the light
You walk in like it every night
But I've never seen you dance
And I've never heard you sing
So how could it mean a single thing?
It's all so rudimentary
You talking like you handy in a fight
You talking like it every night
But I've never seen those flowers in the barrel of your gun
All I've ever seen you do is run
It's all so rudimentary
Well tell me, baby, how does it feel?
I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel
And they all get them out for (they all get them out)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
They twist and they shout for (they twist and they scream and shout)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
You walk in like you've never seen the light
You walk in like it every night
But then I stop to think
And I ask myself why
It's one of those things that darling you must try
It's all so rudimentary
And now I'm jealous
I'm jealous of my own
I have no homestead but through these hearts I will roam
They all get them out for (they all get them out)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
They scream and they shout for (they twist and they scream and shout)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
But tell me, baby, how does it feel?
I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel
And they all get them out for (they all get them out)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
They scream and they shout for (they twist and they scream and shout)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
Yes they all want them out for (they all get them out)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
They scream and they shout for (they twist and they scream and shout)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
You walk in like it every night
But I've never seen you dance
And I've never heard you sing
So how could it mean a single thing?
It's all so rudimentary
You talking like you handy in a fight
You talking like it every night
But I've never seen those flowers in the barrel of your gun
All I've ever seen you do is run
It's all so rudimentary
Well tell me, baby, how does it feel?
I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel
And they all get them out for (they all get them out)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
They twist and they shout for (they twist and they scream and shout)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
You walk in like you've never seen the light
You walk in like it every night
But then I stop to think
And I ask myself why
It's one of those things that darling you must try
It's all so rudimentary
And now I'm jealous
I'm jealous of my own

For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)
They scream and they shout for (they twist and they scream and shout)
For the boys in the band (only for the boys in the band)

Mountain Song

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."

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
In The Libertines book 'Bound Together' It says something like 'They All Get Them Out For' reffers to people metaphorically rolling out the red carpet and buying them drinks 'cause there in a band. Meh..I dont know. Either way. Amazing song.
That makes sense, although I am sure they were quite pleased with the double meaning. I don't think it's just about groupies, but they do come with the territory, and I imagine quite a lot of them get their tits out.
it's all so rudimentary - its all so underdeveloped, thinking you can cling onto some one to be happy. also ''they all get them out'' i should imagine means they all get their tits out...
This song's about Carl being a woman.
Everyone loves the boys in the band.
about groupies
I guess they wrote this about their obsessed groupies, how they worship them and the kind of attention they get for being the boys in the band.
When they say 'they all get them out' at first I thought they were talking about breasts. But when you look more into it, it could also mean 'hey the boys are in town break out the party favors get them some beers'
I love this song
i heard that this song was written about the queens of noise
Yes I heard that too, it would make perfect sense if it was bout the QON...it's definitely about tits rather than beer.
