This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
If you do this
If you do this you'll never have a chance to try again
If you do this you'll never have a chance to try
It's the same sound
Same sting
The same collapse
Of every thing
It's the same size,
Same blade,
The same lie
My way
My face
My heart
My race
I'm a mistake
My way
My face
My heart
My race
I'm such a disgrace
[Chorus]
You're perfectly flawed
You're perfectly incomplete
Like cracks in the glass
And flames full of grass
You're perfectly flawed
You're perfectly incomplete
Let them come near when
Perfection's the key you need
Let the... Loose, just try again
Let the... Loose, just try again
Its the same doubt,
The same dream
It's the same sabotage
'Cause I'm the enemy
It's the same night
Same day
It's the same parasite,
Feeding on the betrayal
My way
My face
My heart
My race
I'm such a disgrace
[Chorus]
You're perfectly flawed
You're perfectly incomplete
A work in progress
Perfection is killing me
A disguise of self-deception
Hides my secrets perfectly
I'm injecting my reflection
'Cause I hate the way it judges me
Don't you do it
You're not healing you, yeah
Don't you do it
You're not healing you, yeah
[Chorus]
You're perfectly flawed
You're perfectly incomplete
A work in progress
Perfection is killing me...
If you do this you'll never have a chance to try again
If you do this you'll never have a chance to try
It's the same sound
Same sting
The same collapse
Of every thing
It's the same size,
Same blade,
The same lie
My way
My face
My heart
My race
I'm a mistake
My way
My face
My heart
My race
I'm such a disgrace
[Chorus]
You're perfectly flawed
You're perfectly incomplete
Like cracks in the glass
And flames full of grass
You're perfectly flawed
You're perfectly incomplete
Let them come near when
Perfection's the key you need
Let the... Loose, just try again
Let the... Loose, just try again
Its the same doubt,
The same dream
It's the same sabotage
'Cause I'm the enemy
It's the same night
Same day
It's the same parasite,
Feeding on the betrayal
My way
My face
My heart
My race
I'm such a disgrace
[Chorus]
You're perfectly flawed
You're perfectly incomplete
A work in progress
Perfection is killing me
A disguise of self-deception
Hides my secrets perfectly
I'm injecting my reflection
'Cause I hate the way it judges me
Don't you do it
You're not healing you, yeah
Don't you do it
You're not healing you, yeah
[Chorus]
You're perfectly flawed
You're perfectly incomplete
A work in progress
Perfection is killing me...

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 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.

“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.
