This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I see the lips move
But all I hear is shit
They act so natural
Faking crimes they don't admit
We need action on the street
Moving with our feet
It's time to shout out loud
It's time to start a movement
And there's no time like right now
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up
It's time to start a fight
Monkey see, monkey do
But all they see is death
Electrocuting, cut 'em up
Watch them take their last breath
We need action on the street
Moving with our feet
It's time to shout out loud
It's time to start a movement
And there's no time like right now
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up
It's time to start a fight
I've held my breath so many times
When I'm praying for the tortured souls
But your souls they seem to be done for
Your bodies they've waged wars
So what gives them the right
To take your life from you
Why do they all play God?
Who said that is your job
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up
It's time to start a fight
I've heard it's a rat race
And their racing 'till they're dead
(get up, get up, get up)
Your pesticides commit homicides
With their frozen:
I've heard it's a rat race
And their racing 'till they're dead
(get up, get up, get up)
Your pesticides commit homicides
With their frozen:
Now it's time to start a fight
But all I hear is shit
They act so natural
Faking crimes they don't admit
We need action on the street
Moving with our feet
It's time to shout out loud
It's time to start a movement
And there's no time like right now
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up
It's time to start a fight
Monkey see, monkey do
But all they see is death
Electrocuting, cut 'em up
Watch them take their last breath
We need action on the street
Moving with our feet
It's time to shout out loud
It's time to start a movement
And there's no time like right now
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up
It's time to start a fight
I've held my breath so many times
When I'm praying for the tortured souls
But your souls they seem to be done for
Your bodies they've waged wars
So what gives them the right
To take your life from you
Why do they all play God?
Who said that is your job
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up
It's time to start a fight
I've heard it's a rat race
And their racing 'till they're dead
(get up, get up, get up)
Your pesticides commit homicides
With their frozen:
I've heard it's a rat race
And their racing 'till they're dead
(get up, get up, get up)
Your pesticides commit homicides
With their frozen:
Now it's time to start a fight

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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,
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

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/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
especially with their history of pro-animal rights, there's nothing else that this song could be about. i think that it might even be specifically be aimed at Huntingdon Life Sciences with the line "Your pesticides commit homicides".
