This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I guess we'll have to move
The neighborhood is on to us
Let's join the little babes
Throwin' rocks in front of us
Riding on my bicycle
I pass my sister on a bus
Let's take the country road before our parents send for us
Trees keep fallin' at my feet
I guess it's time to build a boat
Make a raft of our bodies
Do you think that it'll float?
What I said was not a joke,
But you just licked the envelope
I'm tired of dating, let's elope
But you just licked the envelope
Three cheers for my parents,
Lonely failed experiments!
Three cheers for my parents,
Lonely failed experiments!
The neighborhood is on to us
Let's join the little babes
Throwin' rocks in front of us
Riding on my bicycle
I pass my sister on a bus
Let's take the country road before our parents send for us
Trees keep fallin' at my feet
I guess it's time to build a boat
Make a raft of our bodies
Do you think that it'll float?
What I said was not a joke,
But you just licked the envelope
I'm tired of dating, let's elope
But you just licked the envelope
Three cheers for my parents,
Lonely failed experiments!
Three cheers for my parents,
Lonely failed experiments!

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
American Town

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.
I totally agree with the meaning relating to the place Woodlands. But I've always felt the song had another meaning for the word Woodland. I think there are certain lyrics that point to a unity with nature.
I find it has alot in common with the poetry of William Blake, the poem 'The Schoolboy' in particular.
There seems to be a comparision of people being trees in the lines:
"Trees keep falling at my feet I guess it's time to build a boat Make a raft of our bodies"
As if the falling trees are friends who have been dragged down by this supressive community. The idea of making a raft from "our bodies" rather than from wood strengthens this alusion, almost suggesting a unity between man and nature.
"Let's take the country road Before our parents send for us"
Also suggests they find escapism in a natural world. I think 'The Woodlands National Anthem' works on the idea of breaking away from the community into a more natural free excistance, a call for the children to escape.
