This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I could have put my head in a bucket full of porridge and moaned about the hospital parking scheme.
I would have saved £14, that I just splashed out on your second album.
Cause thats what its akin to, and further more...
You've got a shit arm, and that's a bad tattoo (x 2)
If your going to quote from the Book of Revelation, don't go calling it the book of revelations,
theres no 's', it's the Book of Revelation as revealed by St John the Divine.
See also Mary Hopkin, she must despair
You've got a shit arm, and that's a bad tatoo (x 2)
Advent in the high street, I point and sing...
Busk when it's Christmas,
You only busk when it's Christmas
You've got a shit arm, and thats a bad tattoo (x 2)
Shit arm, bad tattoo ( x 7)
Well you got a shit arm... and that's a bad tattoo

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.
Gentle Hour

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,
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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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 figure you have to accept what Nigel says and admit this song wasn't necessarily written about the Libertines, but it sure as fuck applies to them. I did indeed spend £14 on their second album, and yes, I may as well have stuck my head in a bucket full of porridge and moaned about the hospital parking system. Oh the enlightenment I underwent upon hearing Achtung Bono...
