    The fun part is the song is about a guy teaching another fella how to manipulate others and crowds.When he say's ''you are gonna go far, kid'' he also manipulates his student. Makes them believe they are decieving others while in reality, the teacher actually uses the ''kid'' to do his bidding.
    *Trust decieved.* Awesome.
    Yet when i was a kid, didnt even realised what it meant and just danced along with the tune.

      it could also be interpreted as someone who manipulates others to get what they want, and the phrase "You're gonna go far, kid" being a sarcastic taunt that the person that he tries to destroy with the crowd's misguided rage says to him, foreshadowing that once the crowd realizes that he is a manipulative liar, He'll be the next bad guy to destroy, while another manipulator takes the leadership of the crowd.

      @Jack Crimson I think(but I'm not sure) its about a guy who's manipulating a guy and making them think they're "going to go far," but they really don't believe in them at all, and they never actually had any chance. They're just lying to them, and maybe getting them to do things that will benefit them(the singer) while making the manipulated guy think the singer is helping them

      @@reversed2489 It's about a kid who's an expert manipulator. The narrator admires him but is ultimately just another puppet. On the whole (if you've seen the video), it's probably meant to convey that manipulation will get you what you want, but it's immoral and self-indulgent.

    2. A father singing to his son while teaching him how to fight and being proud of him as he kills his opponent

      I think it's that the narrator (the person singing) admires a kid (the person he's singing about), and that he wants the kid to teach him how to lie and manipulate people. Ultimately though the narrator is just another pawn, and he is manipulated like the rest of them.

    Some of the best song writing I've ever noticed. In the end, after using lies and manipulation to improve his position, he leads the way and shows everyone the light.
    He is able to do this because his success is enough for others to see him as a role model, leader, or authority figure. Over time, this would result in more people using the same methods to succeed in their goals and begin normalizing the behavior over time.
    This takes the song from being about a person using deceit for their benefit and elevates it to another level entirely.
    Those kids did indeed go far. They've become our businessmen, congressmen, senators, lawyers, judges, and even our president.
    I could go on forever about the subtle brilliance in this song, but I'll leave it there for now. Thanks for reading 😉

      Its about a manipulative person, not a hero. Sure, if the hero is a sociopath, but probably not the context you were thinking of.
      “Another clever word, sets off an unsuspecting herd.”
      “With a thousand lies and a good disguise”
      “Turning all against the one is an art that’s hard to teach.”
      “Something in your way, someone is gonna pay.”
      So... not a hero- more of villain acknowledging another’s intelligence and aptitude for manipulation.

      You should perhaps avoid listening to thrash metal while driving then. (I know this videos song isn't thrash metal so no need to tell me that. K-tnks-bye)

      @@barklordofthesith2997 in reality this song is pretty tame for the Offspring. But to edgy youngsters who know nothing about the band, yeah, this might be their introduction.

      @@ecoRfan Was more along the lines of somebodys driving habits than being about the offspring. If up tempo music makes you drive too fast then best to not listen to that type of music while driving. I do love me some Offspring though, should listen to them more often.

    Show me how to lie
    You're getting better all the time
    And turning all against the one
    Is an art that's hard to teach
    Another clever word
    Sets off an unsuspecting herd
    And as you get back into line
    A mob jumps to their feet
    Now dance, fucker, dance
    Man, he never had a chance
    And no one even knew
    It was really only you
    And now you steal away
    Take him out today
    Nice work you did
    You're gonna go far, kid
    With a thousand lies
    And a good disguise
    Hit 'em right between the eyes
    Hit 'em right between the eyes
    When you walk away
    Nothing more to say
    See the lightning in your eyes
    See 'em running for their lives
    Slowly out of line
    And drifting closer in your sights
    So play it out I'm wide awake
    It's a scene about me
    There's something in your way
    And now someone is gonna pay
    And if you can't get what you want
    Well it's all because of me
    Now dance, fucker, dance
    Man, I never had a chance
    And no one even knew
    It was really only you
    And now you'll lead the way
    Show the light of day
    Nice work you did
    You're gonna go far, kid, trust, deceived!
    With a thousand lies
    And a good disguise
    Hit 'em right between the eyes
    Hit 'em right between the eyes
    When you walk away
    Nothing more to say
    See the lightning in your eyes
    See 'em running for their lives
    Now dance, fucker, dance
    He never had a chance
    And no one even knew
    It was really only you
    So dance, fucker, dance
    I never had a chance
    It was really only you
    With a thousand lies
    And a good disguise
    Hit 'em right between the eyes
    Hit 'em right between the eyes
    When you walk away
    Nothing more to say
    See the lightning in your eyes
    See 'em running for their lives
    Clever alibis, Lord of the flies
    Hit 'em right between the eyes
    Hit 'em right between the eyes
    When you walk away
    Nothing more to say
    See the lightning in your eyes
    See 'em running for their lives
