This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Right!
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
You only do what you gonna get
You only know what you wanna know
Not of this moment
Not without wings
Not of conclusion
Not anything
Get on, get off
Get on, get off
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
You only do what you gonna get
You only know what you wanna know
Yeah! [x7]
Yeah...
Not from this planet
Not of this earth
Not what you're thinking
Not of this dirt
You were not thinking while I was thinking
You're never thinking, I'm always thinking
You want everyone to get the truth, right
While you were stuck in line, while I was through
You only do what you gonna get
You only know what you wanna know
You only do what you gonna get
You only know what you wanna know
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Expect that I'm going to have to kiss goodnight...
This song is over for now...
Over forever...
Ever...
Goes by...
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
You only do what you gonna get
You only know what you wanna know
Not of this moment
Not without wings
Not of conclusion
Not anything
Get on, get off
Get on, get off
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
You only do what you gonna get
You only know what you wanna know
Yeah! [x7]
Yeah...
Not from this planet
Not of this earth
Not what you're thinking
Not of this dirt
You were not thinking while I was thinking
You're never thinking, I'm always thinking
You want everyone to get the truth, right
While you were stuck in line, while I was through
You only do what you gonna get
You only know what you wanna know
You only do what you gonna get
You only know what you wanna know
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Get on, get off, get on
Expect that I'm going to have to kiss goodnight...

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.

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.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
*Note: The last 5 lines is Spider-one muttering something to the crowd or to himself, as the song is closing. I tried very, very hard to decipher what that was, so those last five lines are probably 60% accurate. However, I am sure " Expect that I'm going to have to kiss goodnight " is something close to what he was actually saying. I only went by what I THINK my ears heard. =P
