This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
(first verse sung by Suzie McNeil)
Romance is gone
He's drifting with the stars
A lyric in his pocket
Little girl in his heart
When you hears his songs
On the radio
I don't need to tell you
What you already know
He's on God's top ten
Where heaven never ends
(the rest of the song sung by JD Fortune)
You saw the world
And the world saw you on the stage
Wild, wild, wild colonial boy
Roquefort le pont
Your gypsy heart is free
Pictures on the wall
Of your family
He's on God's top ten
Where heaven never ends
He's on God's top ten
Baby's got momma's eyes
She was always beautiful
When you hear his voice
Feel his arms around you
You remember momma smiling
A daddy's little girl
Bad weather cold media storm
He's on God's top ten
Where heaven never ends
He's on God's top ten
Romance is gone
He's drifting with the stars
A lyric in his pocket
Little girl in his heart
When you hears his songs
On the radio
I don't need to tell you
What you already know
He's on God's top ten
Where heaven never ends
(the rest of the song sung by JD Fortune)
You saw the world
And the world saw you on the stage
Wild, wild, wild colonial boy
Roquefort le pont
Your gypsy heart is free
Pictures on the wall
Of your family
He's on God's top ten
Where heaven never ends
He's on God's top ten
Baby's got momma's eyes
She was always beautiful
When you hear his voice
Feel his arms around you
You remember momma smiling
A daddy's little girl
Bad weather cold media storm
He's on God's top ten
Where heaven never ends
He's on God's top ten

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
I think this song is obvioulsy about Michael Hutchence and his daughter, like the whole second verse, is descrbing Hutchence and the third verse is about his daughter. I think this song is a really great track on this CD and like ... really sweet.
This is the only new INXS song I like. It's beautiful. I first heard it on November 22, and it made me cry.
I agree with a factor, i think its about micheal hitchence aswell
Definitely about Michael and Tiger Lily. Bunch of references to things in Michael's life also.
Roquefort le Pont is a reference to a wine. Hutch was a big fan of alcohol, hah.
'God's Top Ten' is an INXS reference, 'cause in 'Here Comes II', Hutchence sings 'Here comes god's top ten.'
Wild colonial boy could be referring to the Cold Chisel song of the same name. Also, just being Australian.
Gypsy heart is probably a reference to how much Michael moved about and didn't have much love for material goods.
And I'm not sure about 'pictures on the wall of your family', but I believe that before he died, he had covered one wall of his french estate in pictures of the band and his family to remind himself of where he had come from.
"Romance" is gone... When I first heard it I thought it was "A man" is gone. Why do I already prefer my lyrics?!
Anyway, sad song, but a beautiful tribute. R.I.P.
I get chills at nearly every line of this song... especially "Baby's got momma's eyes, she was l aways beautiful..."
Also, "Roquefort le Pins" was the name of Michael Hutchence's villa in the South of France. I'm not sure if that's what the line "Roquefort le Pont" refers to or not.
