SUMMER
Jackle App Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
are the things that defined my Ponyville Summer
When Nice Nurse Mare, from urgent care
put my wings in slings oh gosh what a bummer
(But I'll abscond)
But you wouldn't care when you're in the care of
(Where I'll have fun)
When you're in the care of Lyra and Bon Bon
I looked all day, for a place to stay
But "No Vacancy" signs went on for miles
They saw my cast, they didn't even ask
they took me right in to stay for a while
(But I don't mind)
You wouldn't ask why when you were as desperate as I
(Out of the sun)
You don't ask why when it's Lyra and Bon Bon
I watched them together
while under the weather
and couldn't believe my eyes
Two ponies like this who would share every kiss
like they'll share the rest of their lives
It made me blue and a little bit green
that they were flushed red with love
I'm too yellow to tell them that I'm leaving today
under the orange sunset up above
(Ooooooh)
Plucking strings and broken wings
are the things that defined my Ponyville summer...
The song "Summer" by Jackle App is a narrative of a pony's experience in Ponyville during summer. The opening verse refers to the pony's broken wings, which define their summer. This might suggest that the pony's summer was hampered by an injury, which is affirmed in the following lines. A nurse called Nice Nurse Mare from urgent care provided medical aid to the pony's wings and put them in slings, but their summer vacation was ruined as a result. Despite this setback, the pony avows to abscond to a happy place, where they can have fun.
The second verse talks about the pony's search for a place to stay but only found No Vacancy signs for miles. Fortunately, they found Lyra and Bon Bon, who did not mind taking in a desperate, injured pony with a cast. The pony watches their two hosts together, and they couldn't believe their eyes. Lyra and Bon Bon seem to be deeply in love, sharing every kiss, and showing how they might share the rest of their lives. The sight made the pony feel blue and a little bit green, wishing they had someone like that. They couldn't tell them that they were leaving soon as they are too "yellow" or afraid to say it aloud.
Overall, 'Summer' by Jackle App is a feel-good song that uplifts its listeners with its catchy beats and lively tunes. It tells a story of an injured pony who found hope, love, and friendship in Ponyville.
