This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Ten cent lovers
Beneath the covers Riding on a wet dream Silver tonic free
High stool sweet tarts
Equipped with green cards
Chomp their 401 k's
Semi-chocolate brie
Digging in Los Cruces
For an army drab container Carbon dating clothes for the last time they were washed
Shelby and Sheila
Onomatopoeia
Catch hang nail on Banlon
Shiver Martin Sheen
Preschool mothers
In Technicolor
Are fire bombing Dresden
Stanton, Harry Dean
Feeding line caught tuna to a neutered Bodhisattva Writhing peaches for the President Out on the White House lawn Beating Herbert Hoover With a leather tipped
Pinada Thorn and Katy drink the milk tinted Amerasian Green RETURN, RETURN, RETURN

@[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.
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."

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.
Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
ScreenNameNeeded is most likely correct. This song is one of Kevin's infamous exercises in non sequitur. Anyone who's seen a BTE live show will undoubtedly corroborate this, as Kevin is very given to improvisation during sets and sometimes forcing Michael and Tom to indulge in those whims XD
I am amazed at how even his spontaneous drabble writing is creative and strangely eloquent. As another mentioned, his inclusion of 'onomatopoeia', for example. Half of these lyrics seem like they refer to something or stand alone, leading me to believe this song is in fact a hodgepodge of lyrical fragments Kevin had started on separate occasions, but couldn't 'gel' into one cohesive piece. ("Fire bombing Dresden" as a Vonnegut reference; "Ten cent lovers, underneath the covers, riding on a wet dream" is unsuspectingly poetic for a drabble piece and suggestive of 'fuck buddies' whose only relationships in life are purely carnal, and lack the ability to see any other layer of depth in acquaintances or form attachments to others)
The only truly unifying theme here is era. Postmodernism' boom was '20s to '60s, specifically '50s. So a lot of references in the context are reflective of the early-mid 1900's(Herbert Hoover, Harry Dean Stanton, the peak popularity of Technicolor, and again, the Dresden bombings circa WWII; also, Vonnegut was influential in postmodernism). I don't quite know what's with all the subtle military/war references though.
