This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Too many lawyers in football, baseballs gotta few
The pitcher got a million dollars and the quarterback he got two
Pitcher threw his arm away and the quarterback burned his knee
And this they did so they could live the American dream
Now there are some preachers on T.V. with a suit and a tie and a vest
They want you to send your money to the Lord but they give you
Their address 'cause all of your donations are completely tax free
God bless you all but most of all send your money
Do you really want it, do you really need it
Ya gotta keep on grindin' just ta try ta keep it
Ya got no time for yourself, ya got more ba Roe Jim beam
You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream
Reagan is a cuttin' the budget makin' the democrats scream
Says, we gotta control inflation, quit spendin' our money on everything
But this years tax increase, why? It's the biggest in history
Round and a round we go where we stop, who knows the American dream
Do you really want it, do you really need it
Ya gotta keep on grindin' just ta try ta keep it
We got no time for ourselves ya got more ba Roe Jim beam
You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream
You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream
Hail to the chief, hell, yeah
The pitcher got a million dollars and the quarterback he got two
Pitcher threw his arm away and the quarterback burned his knee
And this they did so they could live the American dream
Now there are some preachers on T.V. with a suit and a tie and a vest
They want you to send your money to the Lord but they give you
Their address 'cause all of your donations are completely tax free
God bless you all but most of all send your money
Do you really want it, do you really need it
Ya gotta keep on grindin' just ta try ta keep it
Ya got no time for yourself, ya got more ba Roe Jim beam
You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream
Reagan is a cuttin' the budget makin' the democrats scream
Says, we gotta control inflation, quit spendin' our money on everything
But this years tax increase, why? It's the biggest in history
Round and a round we go where we stop, who knows the American dream
Do you really want it, do you really need it
Ya gotta keep on grindin' just ta try ta keep it
We got no time for ourselves ya got more ba Roe Jim beam
You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream
You're goin' crazy, dreamin' the American dream
Hail to the chief, hell, yeah

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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,

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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
