This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
One shell, two shell, red shell, blue shell,
Death-on-swift-wings-comes-for-you-shell .
It's a cart race, not an arms race, so why can't you see,
How there used to be koopa troopas on Koopa Troopa beach?
We're all born on the finish line, everything's fine, waiting on our time to shine,
But it's over fast, hit the gas and blast past, pray you don't crash before your time,
You can't spell kart without heart unless you spell it correctly so here's what I'm trying to say,
I feel in the wheels of my automobile that this is real, there's no driving away.
Brothers versus brothers, fungus versus others, fratricide, fungicide, nowhere to hide,
We're slipping on our own peels, tires squeal, bending steel, this the end of the line,
Racing like stallions with irate Italians, the world's gone bananas on us anyway,
Live and learn, twist and turn, crash and burn, I'm concerned we'll all be boos by the end of the day,
Bananas should fight starvation, not be a source of aggravation,
We're spinning out, spinning out, spinning out-ow-out!
We've got our fingers on the trigger, but the lightning bolts can't make us bigger
We're fading away, fading away, fading away-hey-ay!
One banana, two banana, three banana, four!
Bowser's trousers, no more war!
Death-on-swift-wings-comes-for-you-shell .
It's a cart race, not an arms race, so why can't you see,
How there used to be koopa troopas on Koopa Troopa beach?
We're all born on the finish line, everything's fine, waiting on our time to shine,
But it's over fast, hit the gas and blast past, pray you don't crash before your time,
You can't spell kart without heart unless you spell it correctly so here's what I'm trying to say,
I feel in the wheels of my automobile that this is real, there's no driving away.
Brothers versus brothers, fungus versus others, fratricide, fungicide, nowhere to hide,
We're slipping on our own peels, tires squeal, bending steel, this the end of the line,
Racing like stallions with irate Italians, the world's gone bananas on us anyway,
Live and learn, twist and turn, crash and burn, I'm concerned we'll all be boos by the end of the day,
Bananas should fight starvation, not be a source of aggravation,
We're spinning out, spinning out, spinning out-ow-out!
We've got our fingers on the trigger, but the lightning bolts can't make us bigger
We're fading away, fading away, fading away-hey-ay!
One banana, two banana, three banana, four!
Bowser's trousers, no more war!

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
