This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I'm gonna throw an anti-prom
For everyone that don't belong
It's just misfits I'll invite
To the anti-prom tonight
On Long Island in my younger days
I heard my father say "We're movin' to LA"
And when we got there the kids made fun of me
Cuz I talked differently
And my hair was seventies
We didn't have much money
And my clothes fit me funny
Hand-me-downs have never been in style
The years have gone by
And I've grown up since then
But no matter where or when
I can't seem to quite fit in
But it's made me stronger
It's made me who I am
I seek to please my God
And not the praise of man
But still I'll always be
A reject and a geek
But God has never once rejected me
Don't listen to what anybody says
Don't let em in your heart
Don't let em in your head
Don't let em get you down
Cuz God wants you around and there's no better friend
For everyone that don't belong
It's just misfits I'll invite
To the anti-prom tonight
On Long Island in my younger days
I heard my father say "We're movin' to LA"
And when we got there the kids made fun of me
Cuz I talked differently
And my hair was seventies
We didn't have much money
And my clothes fit me funny
Hand-me-downs have never been in style
The years have gone by
And I've grown up since then
But no matter where or when
I can't seem to quite fit in
But it's made me stronger
It's made me who I am
I seek to please my God
And not the praise of man
But still I'll always be
A reject and a geek
But God has never once rejected me
Don't listen to what anybody says
Don't let em in your heart
Don't let em in your head
Don't let em get you down
Cuz God wants you around and there's no better friend

@[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.

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,
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
