This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Tight toy night, streets so bright
The room looked so thin between my bones and skin
There stood another person who was a little surprised
To be face to face with a world so alive
How I fell (did you feel low?)
No (huh?)
I fell right into the arms of Venus de Milo
You know it's all like some new kind of drug
My senses are sharp and my hands are like gloves
And Broadway looked so medieval
It seemed to flap, like little pages
I fell sideways laughing
With a friend from many stages
How I fell (did you feel low?)
Not at all (huh?)
I fell right into the arms of Venus de Milo
Suddenly, my eyes went so soft and shaky
I knew there was pain, but pain is not aching
Then Richie, Richie said
"Hey man, let's dress up like cops, think of what we could do"
But something, oh, something
It said, "Hey, you'd better not"
And I fell (did you feel low?)
Nah (huh?)
I stood up, walked out of the arms of Venus de Milo
The room looked so thin between my bones and skin
There stood another person who was a little surprised
To be face to face with a world so alive
How I fell (did you feel low?)
No (huh?)
I fell right into the arms of Venus de Milo
You know it's all like some new kind of drug
My senses are sharp and my hands are like gloves
And Broadway looked so medieval
It seemed to flap, like little pages
I fell sideways laughing
With a friend from many stages
How I fell (did you feel low?)
Not at all (huh?)
I fell right into the arms of Venus de Milo
Suddenly, my eyes went so soft and shaky
I knew there was pain, but pain is not aching
Then Richie, Richie said
"Hey man, let's dress up like cops, think of what we could do"
But something, oh, something
It said, "Hey, you'd better not"
And I fell (did you feel low?)
Nah (huh?)
I stood up, walked out of the arms of Venus de Milo

Just A Little Lovin'

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.
this song is about Richard Hell and Tom Verlaine hanging out as kids. They were childhood friends and came to New York together..The irony of this song is it's beauty - " I fell right into the arms of Venus de Milo" - have you seen the statue? notice what she is missing??? So I guess he fell into nothing...
