This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Standing still
Still like a tree
Teeth like skin
Rest within
Still like a tree
Rest within
You've nothing but a baby
Dressed in skin
Nothing but a baby
Wrapped in skin
I see you coming
Down
I see you
With your eyes cast down
You're a walking stick man
I can see you're so tough
I can see you're bleeding anyway
I see you coming
Going coming running now
You're going right up there
Right up to the top man
You can't move
'Cause you're fixed to the spot
When you get up there
You can't come down here no more
Feet are on the spot
Reach out your arms
Put your hands in the air
You're on the spot
Wrapped up inside
Oh baby, baby
Wrapped in skin
Teeth like skin
When you get up there man
Sun is gonna smack you
In the face
'Cause it's blinding
When there's nothing in the way
Teeth like skin
Wrapped within
Teeth like skin
Rest within
Still like a tree
Eyes on the ground
Reach out your arms
You're on the spot
Teeth like skin
Rest within
You're so tough
Dressed in skin
Within
The sap is running
Still like a tree
Teeth like skin
Rest within
Still like a tree
Rest within
You've nothing but a baby
Dressed in skin
Nothing but a baby
Wrapped in skin
I see you coming
Down
I see you
With your eyes cast down
You're a walking stick man
I can see you're so tough
I can see you're bleeding anyway
I see you coming
Going coming running now
You're going right up there
Right up to the top man
You can't move
'Cause you're fixed to the spot
When you get up there
You can't come down here no more
Feet are on the spot
Reach out your arms
Put your hands in the air
You're on the spot
Wrapped up inside
Oh baby, baby
Wrapped in skin
Teeth like skin
When you get up there man
Sun is gonna smack you
In the face
'Cause it's blinding
When there's nothing in the way
Teeth like skin
Wrapped within
Teeth like skin
Rest within
Still like a tree
Eyes on the ground
Reach out your arms
You're on the spot
Teeth like skin
Rest within
You're so tough
Dressed in skin
Within
The sap is running

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
