This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I see a window and all I can think about is
Do you wanna fight with me
I know it sounds crazy but I can't find solid ground
So do you wanna fight with me
An I been starin' at this window for the past eleven hours
Thinkin' about all the opportunities this window has to offer
From the twenty third floor to the filing cabinet east Manhattan to
[FDR is beautiful ?] an I'm watchin' all the cars passin'
An a couple stars twinkle so I started laughin'
And a couple walked by an they looked so happy
I booked this room at this place called the last resort
All my bags are packed I got my jacket an my passport
A first class ticket to the after life you dig me
Now is you is or is you ain't with me
An I fully understand if you got other plans
But I can't see you hand in hand with another man
I been on autopilot since we last spoke
And I don't want to board this flight on a bad note
I want you think about it but either way I'm goin'
An if you really love me then here's the chance to show it
I see a window and all I can think about is
Do you wanna fight with me
I know it sounds crazy but I can't find solid ground
So do you wanna fight with me
We'll live forever, they will write a novel about us
She looked me dead in the eyes
And took me by the hand
Kissed me on the cheek an said baby I understand
You don't have to leave plus I'm scared of heights
So just put down your luggage forget about this flight
You an I you know we been through a lot of things
But it's no reason to start trippin' an arguing
She said you are my king I place no one above you
And I don't have to board a plane for me to show you
An all this talk about the after life is kinda creepy
So lets just go lay down and talk I'm gettin' kinda sleepy
I kinda smiled and we both walked to the window I pulled it shut
And started staring at the sky I wiped a couple tears away
An then we looked at each other an
I could see the starts twinkle in her eyes
I told her about the couple I seen earlier
She said I'm sure they're cute but they're not you and I
I see a window and all I can think about is
Do you wanna fight with me
I know it sounds crazy but I can't find solid ground
So do you wanna fight with me
We'll live forever, they will write a novel about us
I see a window and all I can think about is
Do you wanna fight with me
I know it sounds crazy but I can't find solid ground
So do you wanna fight with me
We'll live forever, they will write a novel about us
Do you wanna fight with me
I know it sounds crazy but I can't find solid ground
So do you wanna fight with me
An I been starin' at this window for the past eleven hours
Thinkin' about all the opportunities this window has to offer
From the twenty third floor to the filing cabinet east Manhattan to
[FDR is beautiful ?] an I'm watchin' all the cars passin'

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,

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.
