This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Young girl says to her mom,
"How did you know that father was the one?"
Then mom just rolls her eyes
She says,
"You'll find that special guy"
But to herself she cannot lie
She says,
"I'm praying for the day I die and they bury me"
Then boy becomes a man
He finds that special one who understands
He knows 'twas meant to be
Her faults he cannot see
And now he's down on bended knee
I pledge my love eternally
Will you marry me?
Do you take this woman?
I don't!
Do you take this man?
I don't!
For the rest of your awful life
She is your lawful wedded wife
Do you take this woman?
I don't!
Do you take this man?
I don't!
Eternal agony in holy matrimony
The two now joined as one
And from this holy union comes a son
So the cycle begins again
Another fool is on his knee
Where is my alimony?
Hang yourself from the family tree
Say marry me
Do you take this woman?
I don't!
Do you take this man?
I don't!
Eternal agony in holy matrimony
Do you take this woman?
I don't!
Do you take this man?
I don't!
For the rest of your awful life
She is your lawful wedded wife
Menopause
Mid-life crisis
Moments for the rest of your life
'Til death do you part
'Til the kids leave home she is your wife June?!
Do you take this woman?
I don't!
Do you take this man?
I don't!
For the rest of your awful life
She is your lawful wedded wife
Do you take this woman?
I don't!
Do you take this man?
I don't!
Eternal agony in holy matrimony
Just look at your parents' strife
Imagine that for the rest of your life
Do you take this woman?
Indubitably I don't
"How did you know that father was the one?"

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
No Surprises

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.
