This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
did i tell you bout the time i dated this guy
he was from the East Village, an angsty leather-clad romeo
told me with tears in his eyes bout how his mother’d died
but two weeks later he said he’d talked to her on the phone
that’s when i knew he was nuts
next on my mission i dated a musician
from Greenpoint, Brooklyn
his clothing was all vintage-store hip
he made me pick up our tab then borrowed money for a cab
that was 4 weeks ago, i haven’t heard from him since
i guess i’ve had some bad luck or just bad taste
well i guess it all depends on how you’re looking at it
see i been searchin for love in these 5 boroughs
no matter how i try i never seem to find it
from city boys my heart got a pummeling
i think it’s time i went bridge and tunneling
jersey boy be mine
we’ll have an awesome jersey time
you know a ride on the Path
aint’ such a pain in the ass
as long as you’re at the end of the line
yo Jersey boy lets go
i think it’s cute how you wear your pants so low
and though i’m just a little scared
of all the products in your hair
i still think your fine, oh Jersey boy be mine
couldn’t ask for nothin more
then when we’re going down the Shore
for a day of skiball and a plate of cheeze fries
see funny cars out at Raceway Park
but I can’t navigate those jughandles
so maybe it’d be best if you drive
and there ain’t no other place
where you can taste
what chicken fingers mozzerella sticks
and fries taste like on the same sandwich
and makin out after dark
in the industrial park
i never knew it could be so romantic
been up and down from the bronx down to brooklyn
who knew the WaWa’s where i shoulda been lookin?
jersey boy wassup?
your so sweet i can’t believe my luck
your family thinks i’m wierd cuz i don’t really seem to care
‘bout Taylor ham or the Stanley Cup
yo jersey boy, it’s on
you know the words to every single misfits song
and if we’re playin pinball or hangin at the mall
we’re having a great time oh jersey boy be mine
oh jersey boy i think you and i could go far
besides your the only the guy i know who’s got a car
i used to think that this whole state had a funny smell
but since i got a whiff of you now i think it’s swell
and if a water main breaks and we can’t take a shower
and the traffic on the turnpike is backed up for hours
through all the smokestacks i still can’t hide
since i got you babe, i got jersey pride

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.
