This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Make it like that famous country singer
Or that guy I saw last night on Jerry Springer
Clean me up but let me keep my edge,
In the day I like to keep it dignified
But at night you know I got another side
And I don't give a damn, cause I am what I am
Even if it's really really bad
[Chorus]
I've got an Ape Drape, yes I do
They're givin' em to anyone, and that means you
You can drive to Riverside and get one too
And then you'll have an Ape Drape like I do
Go ahead and buzz it 'round the ears
I've been growin' that one braid back there for years
I've had it since the first time I saw Queensryche
The front may conform to society
But the back says I have personality
Even if it's really really, even if it's really really bad
[Chorus]
Make it short in front and long in back! (say 10 x)
[Chorus]
If the top's not short enough that it stands up
I could be thrown out of the Bad Boy Club
But don't you lay a finger on my pony tail
Now fix my kid so he looks just like me,
Some matching crazy pants are all we need
Some may call it child abuse I just call it bonding with you Dad.
I've got a Norco Neck warmer yes i do
They're giving 'em to anyone and that means you
You can drive to Norco and get one too
And then you'll have a Norco Neckwarmer like i do
I've got hockey hair yes i do
They're givin' 'em to anyone and that means you
You can drive to Canada and get one too
And then you'll have hockey hair like i do.

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
Went to Holiday World in Santa Claus, In. Saw a grand total of 32 men, women, and children with mullets. Rock on, People at Holiday World. Rock on.
lmao this song is great. this guy at my school has a mullet and everytime i see him this song pops in my head.
I've got Josh Freese hair..... lol great song. One change I would make is:
"i've got a mullet yes i do they're giving them to anyone that means you you can drive to rockingham and get one too and then you'll have a mullet like i do"
Rockingham = The birthplace of the Aussie Bogan.
