A música Youre Gonna Go Far, Kid do The Offspring fala sobre manipulação e traição. Reflete a ideia de que, com astúcia e desonestidade, alguém pode avançar na vida, mas também destaca as possíveis consequências negativas dessas ações.
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 step 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's 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
