This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I think you are living in denial
Oh can't you see she's pretty wild?
And every night I pray that you don't knock her up
'Cause I still want to be the mother of your child
They say "l'amour est ne a Paris"
So she's planned a little trip to France
While she's in anxious anticipation
I really hope you have a horrible vacation
And so you think of me when you arrive
Hope the french fleas eat you both alive
And your room smells
And the toilet doesn't flush
And locals treat you mean
And the service takes too long
'Cause I'm fragile and you broke my heart in two
But you just smile
Like it's all the same to you, to you
But when you learn your lesson
Come back like a prodigal son
Read the big sign at the airport
Bienvenue from hell, mon amour
And when you learn your lesson
Come back like a prodigal son
Read the big sign at the airport
Bienvenue from hell, mon amour
Where did you get the ability?
To make fakes promises to me
You are exactly like
A politician
Need everyone's approval just to see if you are doing right
And I hope you both freeze under the Eiffel Tower
So you end up throwing in the towel
Hope you'll miss me
And someday you're gonna see
That I put my trust in you
But you turned it back to me
'Cause I'm fragile and you broke my heart in two
But you just smile
Like it's all the same to you, to you
But when you learn your lesson
Come back like a prodigal son
Read the big sign at the airport
Bienvenue from hell, mon amour
When you learn your lesson
Come back like a prodigal son
Read the big sign at the airport
Bienvenue from hell, mon amour
What's your destination?
What's your destination?
When you learn your lesson
Come back like a prodigal son
Read the big sign at the airport
Bienvenue from hell, mon amour
But when you learn your lesson
Come back like a prodigal son
Read the big sign at the airport
Bienvenue from hell, mon amour
Mon amour

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.

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 is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
Im happy that Shakira is back with ironic lyrics...kind of as "dont bother" but with a different context.
