This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
It's alright, it's a blast, but they're holding us down
Start it up, try to move without making a sound
It's OK, do you want me to make up your mind?
Guess it is kind of hard to know what we'll find
Straightaway, we're heading for trouble today
Hey, we can do it again if you like
And repeat it again a few times
We can keep up the speed 'til we die
Fired up, it's a smash and we're aiming to score
Carry on, 'cause we're always coming for more
Put our heads together start a blinding raid
want to break the record find another way
Get up going now 'cause we're starting off today
Gonna try our best and we might succeed
Working for a change spread another disease
A little more time is all we ever need
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Looking out, watch our backs and we'll keep out of sight
Gonna try to find out what the fuzz is about
Start it up, try to move without making a sound
It's OK, do you want me to make up your mind?
Guess it is kind of hard to know what we'll find
Straightaway, we're heading for trouble today
Hey, we can do it again if you like
And repeat it again a few times
We can keep up the speed 'til we die
Fired up, it's a smash and we're aiming to score
Carry on, 'cause we're always coming for more
Put our heads together start a blinding raid
want to break the record find another way
Get up going now 'cause we're starting off today
Gonna try our best and we might succeed
Working for a change spread another disease
A little more time is all we ever need
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Looking out, watch our backs and we'll keep out of sight
Gonna try to find out what the fuzz is about

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,

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
