This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Here we go again
Hurting each other for no reason
Wondering why we keep repeating
The same mistakes seems the more we give
The more we're disillusioned
Baby, what is it we're doin?
Are we so scared of give and take? Ohh
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
(Why?) just when it seems we've
Fin'lly made a breakthrough
Why can't we fly between the
Eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
Sometimes it seems
Like the silence is between us
Get deeper than the meanest words
Feel colder than the night
Every time I feel as though
I'd finally gonna leave
It seems as though I just
Can't praise a girl
Without you in my life, whoa
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
(Why?) just when it seems we've
Fin'lly made a breakthrough
Why can't we fly between the
Eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
And when you cry
I feel as though the tears are falling
From my eyes
Why do we do this to each other?
There so much we should be proud of
So many dreams that we have shared
I'd hate to think that we're arriving
Without you standing here
Tell me, why do we hurt the ones we love?
(Why?) when we fin'lly made a breakthrough
Why can't we fly between the
Eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love? Ohh
Why can't we fly between the
Eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love? Why?
Hurting each other for no reason
Wondering why we keep repeating
The same mistakes seems the more we give
The more we're disillusioned
Baby, what is it we're doin?
Are we so scared of give and take? Ohh
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
(Why?) just when it seems we've
Fin'lly made a breakthrough
Why can't we fly between the
Eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
Sometimes it seems
Like the silence is between us
Get deeper than the meanest words
Feel colder than the night
Every time I feel as though
I'd finally gonna leave
It seems as though I just
Can't praise a girl
Without you in my life, whoa
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
(Why?) just when it seems we've
Fin'lly made a breakthrough
Why can't we fly between the
Eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
And when you cry
I feel as though the tears are falling
From my eyes
Why do we do this to each other?
There so much we should be proud of
So many dreams that we have shared
I'd hate to think that we're arriving
Without you standing here
Tell me, why do we hurt the ones we love?
(Why?) when we fin'lly made a breakthrough
Why can't we fly between the
Eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love? Ohh
Why can't we fly between the
Eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love? Why?

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,

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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/
