This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Four year old at play
Shot and killed today
Never even had a chance
Seventeen and high
Threw away his life
Has a gun to feel like he's a man
Can't have it any other way
Laying in the street
Asking for a drink
Doesn't have a place to live
Pregnant at thirteen
Still can hear the screams
Something that she never will forget
Can't have it any other way
I'm trying to open my mind
So you can keep your faith
And I'll just walk away
There's no reason for me to stay
I'm trying to open my mind
I'm trying to make up my mind
Shot and killed today
Never even had a chance
Seventeen and high
Threw away his life
Has a gun to feel like he's a man
Can't have it any other way
Laying in the street
Asking for a drink
Doesn't have a place to live
Pregnant at thirteen
Still can hear the screams
Something that she never will forget
Can't have it any other way
I'm trying to open my mind
So you can keep your faith
And I'll just walk away
There's no reason for me to stay
I'm trying to open my mind
I'm trying to make up my mind

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,
