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.
That's the dynamic I read into it, too. Even tried to make an animatic about it with one of my OCs who is a Machiavellian kid with a telepathic link with an evil mentor.
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.
I've had the single line "Now dance Fucker dance, man he never had a chance" Stuck in my head for 9 years. I was a kid when I heard it on the radio and my mom wouldn't let me listen to this. I found it. I finally found it. *Aggressively headbangs*
This song reffers to my my game avatar, lies so nobody knows it is me, a loser, but ingame i am a hero, so im in perfect disguise cause i wear an eyemask
Nah... This song is more like... You standing just outside of the explosion, standing behind the flames, glaring as you watch that savage walk away after destroying another person's life and getting away with it.
@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.
Song: Sounds like it’s about triumph and overcoming a major obstacle Meaning: A shitty self righteous person getting away with it and seeing themselves as the hero all the time
@@drknight8310 I am Spanish so at first I didn't understand the lyrics or some of them and at first I thought it was about someone parting on his journey (and that idea blended perfectly with the title) and overcoming obstacles or something but as I read the whole lyrics I noticed Oh boy was I wrong.
By 0:05 I had realized that my dad used to play this when I was a little kid. On one hand, the nostalgia makes the song rather meaningful for me, but on the other I can't help but wonder why he played it around me (unless there's a clean version or something) when he and my mom were so against accidentally teaching my sister and I how to swear
@@deasttttt You mean use lies, gossip, and betrayal to ruin the lives of anyone who gets in your way? That's literally what the song is about. Use a thousand lies, clever alibis, and a good disguise to sic a mob on one individual... apparently anyone who gets in your way. And after a mob jumps to their feat to deal with your victim for you, you just dance it up. Sounds like a good way to increase the number of suicides, and possibly the number of terrorists. I honestly can't say which I hate more. The abused kid who proceeds to murder people, or the assholes who abused them.
mathig nihilcek ...hey man I think you took what the other person meant a little too seriously... I think he just meant the part of life being the dance dance portion of the song... unless you were joking? I can’t tell over written text.
THE NOSTALGIA I remember finding this song on a random RUclips video when I was 7-8. And hearing it now, at 16 years old nostalgia hits harder than it should
"Do you listen to the offspring?" "What?" "Do you listen.. to the offspring." "I uh, used to." "You're gonna go far, kid!" "..." "Do you think he got the reference?" -Sam O'Nella Academy
I like how this song could have two different meanings: 1. There's a guy singing to a very horrible person that has deceived people into thinking that they are good 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.
Whenever I hear this song on the radio, I start crying. It’s been my favorite for years. It very rarely comes on, so I naturally get really happy when it comes on. This song truly is a beauty.
It's a bit ironic how a lot of people don't realize the meaning of the song until they meet a person like the one portrayed in the song. I know I didn't.
Oh yes, after years of not returning to this song I listened to it by chance hours before unmasking a manipulative long time friendship. Sometimes I think the universe has something mystical in it
Okay, I looked this up because in the book "Lord of the Flies", it says this is related to the story. Like how Jack turned them all against Ralph. And especially the final chapter of the book.
@@NewAgesucks its connected to Jack and how he could turn everybody against "one," that one being Ralph. Then there's the "Dance Fucker Dance," line, like the fire dance. People think it's like the Lord of the Flies speaking to Jack Merridew himself. Also, hit em right between the eyes is in relation to the boulder crashing onto Piggy
I fucking love the lord of the flies quote. This whole song is based off of that book. It’s amazing that he read it in high school like I did. And it also had such an impact on his life that he wrote a song about it. It had a huge impact on my life as well.
All these people saying they never understood the song and I'm here like 'I was an edgy eighth grader when I discovered this song, purely BECAUSE the meaning perfectly fit my edgy eighth grade aesthetic"
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 😉
This song will always be the song I turn to when I need to feel in charge. It gives me motivation. When I saw them in concert, I waited the whole time just to scream this song, and even started crying. It's just such a powerful song for me..
This song is purely on of my favorites and I just love it, the melody and the lyrics are amazing. God I love this song, I heard it first a couple years ago and I found it again, nostalgic and I listen to it everyday. 10000000 out of 10 song
During class in 8th grade art I play music on my phone from song requests and a girl I like requested this and she said "play you're gonna go far kid clean version!" Unfortunately for me she was across the room so I didn't hear it all and just played the regular version and I'm just gluing something and all of a sudden DANCE FUCKER DANCE
My mother and father (despite being separated) used to play this song for me lots 10 years ago, I used to dance to the lyrics all the time.. to think that was 10 years ago and now im 15 just makes me so nostalgic
I love this song! It helps me forget the mess and stress that my life currently is and just live in the moment. Favorite part: “Now dance, fucker, dance!”
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.
@@joeahern8960 maybe like a master and student and the student turns evil and kills his master, having surpassed him, and then the master sings/ says this to his student, "you're gonna go far kid..." still proud of his student because of the loving bond they shared? just got me thinking
I haven’t heard this song in probably a decade… I just finished an exam and as I was walking out the doors the lyrics hit me and I had to listen to it again
The title of the song That line I haven't even known this song very long, yet I've known it for years Where have I heard it? I just know that I love how that line sounds. The notes And now, while its meaning is probably different than I think, I need the words' meaning, now I need it more than ever I feel so pointless, but I continue solely because I have hope of a better future. I'm not sure how I'll reach it, but it's the only thing keeping me going at this point
Epic Fires feel you man. I hope it feels better knowing there is someone who struggles like you. Your comment sure made my day. Hope you get a better future!
thought the same thing, but more or less, a sort of "Damian Wayne" type training where if you get it wrong, you get punished, and this keeps up until you're naturally made to do it right, even if it doesn't feel like you achieved something, but were rather molded to do it
Great lyrics video for an awesome song that moves so fast! Timed just right with the music and not full of annoying misspellings and stupid grammatical errors like so many other lyrics videos have.
Agree. Those types of lyrics videos get on my nerves. I'm not fond of grammatical errors, anyway. Even I make a great amount, but when that happens I feel utterly embarrassed.
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
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.
This reminds me of a two characters in a book I read. The book was The False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen. ITS A GOOD BOOK AND ITS NOT ABOUT ROMANCE! I suggest it to everyone 😂
Izuku Midoriya I’ve been looking for that book for 3 years and I couldn’t remember what it was called, but then I saw this comment, and then I remembered. It is an amazing book.
I read that. You should try six of crows, it fits just as well. Also, I discovered the series several years ago at a school event where they gave free books to people who read a lot. It was the most interesting looking one.
When I was like eight I asked my PE teacher to play this song during class, I had no idea what the lyrics were saying, he turned it off and told me it had a bad word. I was so scared I thought he was going to hate me forever, and I didn’t know what the word was until today.
Tbh It seems that this video has an uncommon comment section which you can't label like "%90 FaNdoM cOmMentS %9 TiRed OF fAndOm cOmmEntS %1 mE xd" PS- It really is an amazing song!
+Undank Kiddo Oh no! I sincerely apologize, I shall fix my unforgettable mistake! 80% WEIRD SHIT 10% LYRIC REPEATING 9% "I LOVE THIS" 1% THIS ISNT A REGULAR COMMENT SECTION
Karma fits the manipulative kid the songs talking about. Let's be fair karma typically thinks ahead. Except for during the test when he got that 86 in math.
I've been listening to this song for a bit, and I think I may have worked out the entire meaning. This song would commonly be associated with sociopathy (an antisocial personality disorder) which is expressed by the lyrics "with a thousand lies and a good disguise." Sociopaths are stereotypically known to hide behind a "mask," to blend in with social standards. The lyrics "show me how to lie, you're getting better all the time" would show that sociopaths are experienced in deceit, and may be asked by a therapist in a quite different manner. The lyrics "hit 'em right between the eyes" I'm unsure about, but my interpretation of it is that the person who trusted the sociopath would have their vision shattered in their acquaintance, friend, or family. Now, they're unsure if this is the person they even know. Tell me if you have any more interpretations in the replies!
"Hit em right between the eyes" is likely a reference to David and Goliath! Basically implying that the person being sung about doesn't seem like much but can take down a metaphorical giant with their skills.
One doesn't have to be a sociopath to be manipulative. Though, the subject of the song could be a sociopath, I think it's about someone who is less sociopathic and more self-righteous, claiming to be a good person while seeing nothing wrong with using others and turning people against them when they're done with them.
When I was younger, I wondered what the Lord of the Flies was. Now I do. I'm happy at this easter egg. And I am not afraid to admit that I like LOTF Edit: Why was I cringe 6 years ago. Also how was freshman year of high school 6-7 years ago.
I'm currently actually reading this book for school. Tbh, the only thing i don't like is how when they talk, they stop suddenly. Example: Ralph turned, facing simon "Why don't we-" "So you could-" "But the-" THAT'S LIKE, EVERY CONVERSATION! AGH! But more or less it's a good book. :P
When I listen to this song all I can see is a bad ass sniper taking on a literal entire army....... I don't know if there is something wrong with me or that would make a really cool movie.

During class in 8th grade art I play music on my phone from song requests and a girl I like requested this and she said "play you're gonna go far kid clean version!" Unfortunately for me she was across the room so I didn't hear it all and just played the regular version and I'm just gluing something and all of a sudden DANCE FUCKER DANCE
Spider-man, is that you?!
That is halarious #topcomments
Spooderman your not dEad!
at least it was the 8th grade and not elementary
Dang thats sad
My mother and father (despite being separated) used to play this song for me lots 10 years ago, I used to dance to the lyrics all the time.. to think that was 10 years ago and now im 15 just makes me so nostalgic
That’s an interesting song for a 5 year old :p
It is going to get much more nostalgic
I'm going to play this at my graduation, if I ever graduate
edit: I didn't graduate bc of corona time
You spoke too soon.
I salute you
Corona said no rights for this man
He was truly ahead of his time
you're about... a few months too early
I love this song! It helps me forget the mess and stress that my life currently is and just live in the moment.
Favorite part: “Now dance, fucker, dance!”
This will one day be used in a intense montage
Imake those in my mind with my OCs.
oh you have no fucking idea
Ten years later this is bringing me to tears
I'VE BEED SEARCHING FOR A LYRIC VIDEO FOR THIS SONG FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW ONLY TO SHOW UP IN MY RECOMMENDATION OUT OF NOWHERE DAMN

There are lyrics on this song everywhere tho 😂

I can just see a defeated villain singing this to the hero like good job you defeated me so congratulations
Rather the other way around
Sserpentsoul not really man. Hero wouldnt say this to a villain who’s defeated.
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.
More like a defeated hero singing this to the villain
@@joeahern8960 maybe like a master and student and the student turns evil and kills his master, having surpassed him, and then the master sings/ says this to his student, "you're gonna go far kid..." still proud of his student because of the loving bond they shared? just got me thinking

I wasn’t the only one that did that good
The title of the song
That line
I haven't even known this song very long, yet I've known it for years
Where have I heard it?
I just know that I love how that line sounds. The notes
And now, while its meaning is probably different than I think, I need the words' meaning, now I need it more than ever
I feel so pointless, but I continue solely because I have hope of a better future.
I'm not sure how I'll reach it, but it's the only thing keeping me going at this point
Epic Fires feel you man. I hope it feels better knowing there is someone who struggles like you. Your comment sure made my day. Hope you get a better future!

dude this song was in a few movies
That comment is like poetry but not
Don’t worry, I know you can make it through, I know this because I have made it through myself
OH MY GOD THIS SONG BRINGS BACK SO MANY MEMORIES AAAA
Does anyone else feel like this song is about someone being trained to be an assassin even though (I’m pretty sure) it’s not?
That's the beauty of music, it's art and art is beauty and beauty is in the eye of the beholder
@@noname-do5wo I couldn’t have said it better myself 😊
thought the same thing, but more or less, a sort of "Damian Wayne" type training where if you get it wrong, you get punished, and this keeps up until you're naturally made to do it right, even if it doesn't feel like you achieved something, but were rather molded to do it
Exactly. Perfect song for an assassin's training montage
So I’m not the only one who thought this
When you realize you be been singing this song wrong for years 😂😂 (just me?)
Nope me too lol:-P
I haven't known of the song until like last year lol
But can relate

Man, this song sure did bring back memories I forgot I had! Just wow!
Glad to see people still listening to this song in 2019
Great lyrics video for an awesome song that moves so fast! Timed just right with the music and not full of annoying misspellings and stupid grammatical errors like so many other lyrics videos have.
Agree.
Those types of lyrics videos get on my nerves. I'm not fond of grammatical errors, anyway. Even I make a great amount, but when that happens I feel utterly embarrassed.
Dad: listen to this.
Me: why?
Next month im dressed in black listening to death metal.
Now tell me is there something wrong with this picture?
For the record everyone that says yes is retarded bc of the shit playing these days there is no other alternative.
I've got a non-sarcastic no as my answer.
And Offspring to death metal in a month!? Kudos on your genre exploration.
Naaaaaaaa😂
No, no there's not
As long as you aren't one of those toxic emo kids who say they were born in the wrong generation its fine with me
Sounds like an intro to something. I like it :)

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

Probably can’t drive the speed limit to this song
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.
@@barklordofthesith2997 I was joking though

This reminds me of a two characters in a book I read. The book was The False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen. ITS A GOOD BOOK AND ITS NOT ABOUT ROMANCE! I suggest it to everyone 😂
Izuku Midoriya I’ve been looking for that book for 3 years and I couldn’t remember what it was called, but then I saw this comment, and then I remembered. It is an amazing book.
Izuku Midoriya the False Prince is an AMAZING BOOK! Btw there’s 2 more!! It’s a trilogy!!
Love you’re user name
I’ve read the first two, I just need to read the last.
I read that. You should try six of crows, it fits just as well. Also, I discovered the series several years ago at a school event where they gave free books to people who read a lot. It was the most interesting looking one.

This song makes me think of the anime “Assassination Classroom”.
It fits all the kids so well. But Nagisa embodies this song so damn more
Omg yesss.
Karma fits the manipulative kid the songs talking about. Let's be fair karma typically thinks ahead. Except for during the test when he got that 86 in math.
yes. manly Karma Akabane...
That's gay. Song ruined now.
I've been listening to this song for a bit, and I think I may have worked out the entire meaning.
This song would commonly be associated with sociopathy (an antisocial personality disorder) which is expressed by the lyrics "with a thousand lies and a good disguise."
Sociopaths are stereotypically known to hide behind a "mask," to blend in with social standards.
The lyrics "show me how to lie, you're getting better all the time" would show that sociopaths are experienced in deceit, and may be asked by a therapist in a quite different manner.
The lyrics "hit 'em right between the eyes" I'm unsure about, but my interpretation of it is that the person who trusted the sociopath would have their vision shattered in their acquaintance, friend, or family. Now, they're unsure if this is the person they even know.
Tell me if you have any more interpretations in the replies!
I think hit em right between the eyes is more literal, you've manipulated the crowds into hating that person already, it's time for the kill shot
Lol basically we associate it with whatever personality disordered person we’ve had the misfortune of meeting in real life
"Hit em right between the eyes" is likely a reference to David and Goliath! Basically implying that the person being sung about doesn't seem like much but can take down a metaphorical giant with their skills.
One doesn't have to be a sociopath to be manipulative. Though, the subject of the song could be a sociopath, I think it's about someone who is less sociopathic and more self-righteous, claiming to be a good person while seeing nothing wrong with using others and turning people against them when they're done with them.
I feel like it’s about a sniper or a hitman idk
*phone rings*
Hello?
Oh hi childhood!
I come back more than 10 years later, and actually understand the meaning. This song is still a bop though.
When I was younger, I wondered what the Lord of the Flies was. Now I do. I'm happy at this easter egg.
And I am not afraid to admit that I like LOTF
Edit: Why was I cringe 6 years ago. Also how was freshman year of high school 6-7 years ago.
I still don't know 😂
Why would you be afraid of saying it? LotF is a classic book!
Tbh this whole song is about lord of the flies once you think about it.
I'm currently actually reading this book for school. Tbh, the only thing i don't like is how when they talk, they stop suddenly. Example:
Ralph turned, facing simon
"Why don't we-"
"So you could-"
"But the-"
THAT'S LIKE, EVERY CONVERSATION! AGH! But more or less it's a good book. :P
I love lotf
When I listen to this song all I can see is a bad ass sniper taking on a literal entire army.......
I don't know if there is something wrong with me or that would make a really cool movie.
I agree! Just the feel of the song makes me want to play COD and snipe people.
That'd make an awesome movie, you want me to turn it into a Gacha Mini move?
I need channel content. ;w;
Dude literally same😂 I feel like I can be Master Chief taking on 100 Elites just breaking all their necks 😂
