This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I've got a broken heart and a broken smile
When I fall I get up even if it take a while
Seeking shelter in the ghost of Elvis
and all of the magic Michael left this world
And I an't leaving even if I know that
Sometimes I drive on the wrong side
Somehow I'm terrified
Some days I will stay inside to cover that I've cried
Being twice as sorry because I've llied
Such a sad looking clown
In a world upside down
Astray in the alleys of this town
There's but one little sun
Where she can safely run
When she cames undone...
Oh baby let me stay your alley cat
You're my wire to the light
And my spark here in the still of the night
So baby let me stay where I'm at
In your sight I always feel alright
I'm right where I don't want to be
And it's a mystery
How the will to fit in is making me
A hole in history
And as long as I'm alive I won't be free
Sometimes I'm left on the outside
Somehow I've got no pride
Some days I am trying to survive when I collide
With an empty Jackie by my side
Such a sad looking clown
In a world upside down
Astray in the alleys of this town
There's but one little sun
Where she can safely run
When she cames undone...
Oh baby let me stay your alley cat
You're my wire to the light
And my spark here in the still of the night
So baby let me stay where I'm at
In your sight I always feel alright
Why me? I'm trying to find
a way to erase and rewind
Help me face my fears
Stay pulling strings my dear
Rule me like a puppeteer...
Oh baby let me stay your alley cat
You're my wire to the light
And my spark here in the still of the night
So baby let me stay where I'm at
In your sight I always feel alright
When I fall I get up even if it take a while
Seeking shelter in the ghost of Elvis
and all of the magic Michael left this world
And I an't leaving even if I know that
Sometimes I drive on the wrong side
Somehow I'm terrified
Some days I will stay inside to cover that I've cried
Being twice as sorry because I've llied
Such a sad looking clown
In a world upside down
Astray in the alleys of this town
There's but one little sun
Where she can safely run
When she cames undone...
Oh baby let me stay your alley cat
You're my wire to the light
And my spark here in the still of the night
So baby let me stay where I'm at
In your sight I always feel alright
I'm right where I don't want to be
And it's a mystery
How the will to fit in is making me
A hole in history
And as long as I'm alive I won't be free
Sometimes I'm left on the outside
Somehow I've got no pride
Some days I am trying to survive when I collide
With an empty Jackie by my side
Such a sad looking clown
In a world upside down
Astray in the alleys of this town
There's but one little sun
Where she can safely run
When she cames undone...
Oh baby let me stay your alley cat
You're my wire to the light
And my spark here in the still of the night
So baby let me stay where I'm at
In your sight I always feel alright
Why me? I'm trying to find
a way to erase and rewind
Help me face my fears
Stay pulling strings my dear
Rule me like a puppeteer...
Oh baby let me stay your alley cat
You're my wire to the light
And my spark here in the still of the night
So baby let me stay where I'm at
In your sight I always feel alright

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
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,
