This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Bum-ba-da-bum-bum
Yeah
Yeah (yeah)
Okay
There's a birthday party happening upstairs (where?)
And it's all for me, who the fuck cares? (Fuck it)
They don't notice if I never go and show my face (face)
They just looking for a reason they can celebrate (that's okay)
I hate to waste the vanilla cake that they made for me (tasty)
I tell the same stories, they pretend they never heard 'em (boring)
I'll just stay down here inside the studio (uh-huh)
Doing blow and paraphrasing the crucible (witch)
If you fucking with the god, that's a funeral (kill 'em)
Lose your soul, I'm witcha longer than your student loans (woah)
Who got the ecstasy pills? I need a few to roll (raw)
I'm a real drug addict, homie, you should know
Somebody please tell Jimmy to put the pistol down (stop man please, please, please please)
He's serious this time, he's gonna kill me now (bapa-papa-pam, ah)
He'll regret it when I hit the ground (what did I do?)
For now, everybody gather round
It's happy birthday (woo)
It's a birthday party (yeah)
Yeah, happy birthday (sing me a motherfucking song)
It's your birthday party (sing me a motherfucking song)
Yeah, happy birthday (yeah)
It's your birthday party (come on)
Happy birthday (come on come on)
Yeah, happy birthday (come on, come on)
Yeah, okay
Happy birthday (thanks)
How the fuck you feel? (Good)
Do you ever sit and wonder what is real? (Huh?)
Do you ever reach to touch her but there's nothing there? (There)
Do you tell her that you love her but she doesn't care? (Care)
Does she tell you that you hurt her and you're unaware? (No)
Did you hear about a heaven now you running there? (Go)
Do you think about the fantasy and make-believe? (Okay)
Do you cover up your eyes, you can't wait to see? (Look)
Lately, I've been having strange dreams (uh-huh)
Paranoid they hate me, everybody think I'm crazy
Baby, can you take me somewhere where the sky blue? (Uh-huh)
You can lead the way, I promise I'll be right behind you (let's go, let's go, let's go)
I do see myself as iconic (yeah)
Getting high my downfall it's kinda ironic
Like a condom they on it (woah)
Got 'em in my pocket (woah)
No time to worry, hurry up and light the candles
Everybody happy birthday (woo)
It's a birthday party (sing me a motherfucking song)
Yeah, happy birthday (sing me a motherfucking song)
It's your birthday party (everybody sing along)

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
