This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
The bubbles are not reality but it's inside your mind,
making you forget where you're from and what's behind.
isn't it suspicious how the world is now your friend,
getting in return 1.000 more than what you could ever send?
Oh Yeah!
[Chorus]
We live in a bubble baby.
a bubble's not reality.
you gotta have a look outside.
nothing in a bubble, is the way it's supposed to be,
and when it blows you'll hit the ground.
Oh Yeah!
The bubbles are not reality but it's inside your mind,
making you forget where you're from and what's behind.
isn't it suspicious how the world is now your friend,
getting in return 1.000 more than what you could ever send?
The bubble doesn't make you but it's you that makes the bubble,
and you better try to remember that it's in your head.
the bubble is a very tricky thing all full of type and it is not easy
to try to see the way things are they'll always be.
[Chorus]
we live in a bubble baby.
a bubble's not reality.
you gotta have a look outside.
nothing in a bubble, is the way it's supposed to be,
and when it blows you'll hit the ground.
we live in a bubble baby.
but it's not the place to be.
cause it's a place of lies and hype.
don't believe the bubble cause it's nothing but a dream,
and when it blows you'll be alone.
Oh Yeah!
The bubbles are not reality but it's inside your mind,
making you forget where you're from and what's behind.

Oh Yeah!
Living in the city
living for the go
one for the money
two for the show.
i spend a lot of cash
And i buy a new house
everybody just a watch
while me drive my big car.
I have everything
and nothing is missing
spending all my time
hugging and kissing.
sleeping in the most
expensive hotels
hanging out with the most
beautiful girls.
Everywhere i go people just follow me.
i'm famous, and i'm on every screen.
i travel around the world in my private jet.
i see my face in every magazine.
my nick name is V.I.P.
life has become everything that i see.
i got my name up in the stars.
famous all over from here straight to mars.

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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.
im not a big electronic music fan but his song is awesome. its about getting out to enjoy life. you only have one life so live it up now cause youre not gonna when youre old.
