This song is about the social acceptability of trends coming and going. Often we're told what is "cool" even though these things, these fads, they always fade away. Really though… how can we live without them?
lyrics
"LONG LIVE THE LIE"
All the kids want it, long live the lie
All the kids want it, long live the lie
All the kids want it, long live the lie
All the kids want it, long live the lie
How bad do you want it
What's gone in a matter of time
Everyone's talking about it
But what's to know…
I gotta have it
I can't believe it's starting again
I can't believe it's starting again
I can't believe it's starting again
I can't believe it's starting again
All the kids want it, long live the lie
All the kids want it, long live the lie
All the kids want it, long live the lie
All the kids want it, long live the lie
