This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Well, I ain't about to go to school
And I'm sick and tired of Golden Rules
They say I'm crazy from the wrong side of the tracks
I never see them but they're always so far back
Oh, yeah, baby, how to say?
Well, lemme tell ya about this one time
How ya gonna tell me now?
Lemme put it to music, yeah, I say
Well, I'm sick and tired of cleaning room
And it's the final bell for pushing broom
Damned if I do and then I'm damned if I don't
Won't someone tell me what it is they all want?
It makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
Blue, it makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
I just can't take it
My teachers all gave up on me
No matter what they say, I disagree
And when I need something to soothe my soul
I listen to too much rock 'n' roll
Don't want no class reunion
The circus just left town
Why behave in public
If you're living on a playground?
It makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
Blue, it makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
Blue, it makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools ow
Blue, it makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
Ah, ah, ow
All right, I say
Here they going my way uh
OH yeah, uh yeah
And I'm sick and tired of Golden Rules
They say I'm crazy from the wrong side of the tracks
I never see them but they're always so far back
Oh, yeah, baby, how to say?
Well, lemme tell ya about this one time
How ya gonna tell me now?
Lemme put it to music, yeah, I say
Well, I'm sick and tired of cleaning room
And it's the final bell for pushing broom
Damned if I do and then I'm damned if I don't
Won't someone tell me what it is they all want?
It makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
Blue, it makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
I just can't take it
My teachers all gave up on me
No matter what they say, I disagree
And when I need something to soothe my soul
I listen to too much rock 'n' roll
Don't want no class reunion
The circus just left town
Why behave in public
If you're living on a playground?
It makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
Blue, it makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
Blue, it makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools ow
Blue, it makes me blue
Fools, I live with fools
Ah, ah, ow
All right, I say
Here they going my way uh
OH yeah, uh yeah

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
To me this song is just about the man coming down on you, whether it's your parents, your school, your boss or whatever.
This song reminds me of a teenager who rebels. Maybe a loner who doesn't fit into the academic mode. As a teacher I see plenty of students like this who can excel in many area's outside of school but not academically. "My teachers all gave up on me. No matter what they say, I disagree."
I love guitar riffs in this song. Classic.
To me this song is about rebelling against authority.....Period! The Mighty Van Halen's Best Album....
