This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Anita Lane:
What did you think when you saw his hands?
Gudrun Gut:
I wondered if they could kill people
AL:
Yeah, it's always like that
Why are you crying?
Why are you crying?
GG:
There's a girl going blind on TV
AL:
Yeah, Little House On The Prairie
GG:
What are you thinking?
What are you thinking?
AL:
How he lets me use his firething, his firething
How his hands smelt clean like a good father's
Like Gregory Peck's, how his eyes held things
And the candles shined, the lips of his mouth
And how something sparkled in them
GG:
I know he was home when you telephoned
He is passive-aggressive
He hates women
AL:
His touch opens worlds; it rages, it riots
It reveals not too much, me neither
It's a sexy zig-zag, it's Salman Rushdie
It's fugitive in my blood
GG:
He won't cure you of your memories
And he might give you pictures
You can never shake
AL:
How he lets me use his firething (x6)
GG:
Optional firething
AL:
How he lets me use his firething, his firething (x6)
GG:
He lets you use his lighter
What did you think when you saw his hands?
Gudrun Gut:
I wondered if they could kill people
AL:
Yeah, it's always like that
Why are you crying?
Why are you crying?
GG:
There's a girl going blind on TV
AL:
Yeah, Little House On The Prairie
GG:
What are you thinking?
What are you thinking?
AL:
How he lets me use his firething, his firething
How his hands smelt clean like a good father's
Like Gregory Peck's, how his eyes held things
And the candles shined, the lips of his mouth
And how something sparkled in them
GG:
I know he was home when you telephoned
He is passive-aggressive
He hates women
AL:
His touch opens worlds; it rages, it riots
It reveals not too much, me neither
It's a sexy zig-zag, it's Salman Rushdie
It's fugitive in my blood
GG:
He won't cure you of your memories
And he might give you pictures
You can never shake

How he lets me use his firething, his firething (x6)

He lets you use his lighter

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.

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
