This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Somebody said can ya find the way to God,
I said I found my way in beat dap-in-do-pa
That's how I found my way to God.
Walking down the street sayin' hi hello,
But how far do you think I can god
Before I start having to sing ya the blues dap-in-boo-pa
Tapping to the beat, singing hi-di-ho,
But how long do you think I can go
Before I start having to get in the groove dab-in-do-ba
'cause I know that there will always be a life for me
Because I found my place in history,
As a lover of the beat dap-in-do-ba,
That's how I found the way to God.
So your sittin in your seats, and tapping your toes,
How long do ya think you can hold,
Before you start having to join in my groove dap-in-do-baa
'cause there's a beat in my feet
As I tumble the seas
And the waves of ecstacy
And can you feel the vibe
Does it move you inside
Like the way it does to me
'cause I know, that there will never be a doubt in me
'cause Momma told me it was meant to be
I found my baby in the beat dap-in-do-ba,
That's how I found my way to God
Oh yeah
That's how I found my way to god
Oh whoa
That's how I found my way to god
I said I found my way in beat dap-in-do-pa
That's how I found my way to God.
Walking down the street sayin' hi hello,
But how far do you think I can god
Before I start having to sing ya the blues dap-in-boo-pa
Tapping to the beat, singing hi-di-ho,
But how long do you think I can go
Before I start having to get in the groove dab-in-do-ba
'cause I know that there will always be a life for me
Because I found my place in history,
As a lover of the beat dap-in-do-ba,
That's how I found the way to God.
So your sittin in your seats, and tapping your toes,
How long do ya think you can hold,
Before you start having to join in my groove dap-in-do-baa
'cause there's a beat in my feet
As I tumble the seas
And the waves of ecstacy
And can you feel the vibe
Does it move you inside
Like the way it does to me
'cause I know, that there will never be a doubt in me
'cause Momma told me it was meant to be
I found my baby in the beat dap-in-do-ba,
That's how I found my way to God
Oh yeah
That's how I found my way to god
Oh whoa
That's how I found my way to god

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,
American Town

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
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.
At a concert the other night Missy explained what this song meant. Its about music being to her, what god is to other people. Despite many peoples opinions it is not about her "finding god". The Cactus in the title refers to nothing and was entirely random, as she needed to name the song quickley or it could not be judged at the school talent show that she was performing in that night.
Nice one benzo. I got the same story at the show i went to! Such a great live song.
I love this song!! its just so boppy and sing-a-long-ish!! just awesome. i kind of overlooked the whole gist that it was about her finding god coz i was just listening to the "beep-dap-in-do-ba" as it refers to music andhow she 'found' this that and the other with music. i dont know just fun!
