This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
We'll sing just a little bit louder
And we won't stop till she can't handle it
We'll sing just a little bit slower
So she'll hang on to every single word
Over these past few years I feel like I've been cheating myself
I'm working hard all the time
You take the easy way out
Over these past few years I've tasted who you're going to be
Candy coated on top
But so bitter underneath
Uh oh, uh oh
He's still watching
Oh no, Oh no
She's undressing him with her eyes, wasting his time,
No No No (And I know that she'll never change)
And uh oh, uh oh
No one said it didn't hurt and
Everybody knows good things take a little work
So don't go giving up on the one, the one you love
Over these past few years we've driven right into a dead end
And we'll keep spinning our tires until one of us gives in
And we're approaching the question that I feel like we should ask
Should we just catch different rides, or just keep fixing the flats?
Uh oh, uh oh
He's still watching
Oh no, Oh no
She's undressing him with her eyes, wasting his time,
No No No (And I know that she'll never change)
And uh oh, uh oh
No one said it didn't hurt and
Everybody knows good things take a little work
So don't go giving up on the one, the one you love
We'll sing just a little bit louder
And we won't stop till she can't handle it
We'll sing just a little bit slower
So she'll hang on to every single word
So close your eyes girl, and tell me what you see
The lives that we've created, were all because of me
So listen closely girl, cause our future is at stake
The reason we are ending: is because I give, you take
Close your eyes, and tell me what you see
A problem that's unchanging, a past that's haunting me
Uh oh, uh oh
He's still watching
Oh no, Oh no
She's undressing him with her eyes, wasting his time,
No No No (a past that's haunting me)
And uh oh, uh oh
No one said it didn't hurt and
Everybody knows good things take a little work
So don't go giving up on the one, The one you love
The oneeeee, the one you love
The oneeeee, the one you love
The oneeeee, the one you love
And we won't stop till she can't handle it
We'll sing just a little bit slower
So she'll hang on to every single word
Over these past few years I feel like I've been cheating myself

You take the easy way out
Over these past few years I've tasted who you're going to be

Uh oh, uh oh

She's undressing him with her eyes, wasting his time,

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,
