You're Gonna Go Far Kid
-The Offspring Lyrics

Show me how to lie, you're getting better all the time
Teach me how to deceive and manipulate because you're becoming more skilled at it over time.

And turning all against the one is an art that's hard to teach
Manipulating a group of people to turn against a single person is a difficult skill to master.

Another clever word sets off an unsuspecting herd
Using a convincing word can trigger an entire group of people who are unaware of the manipulation.

And as you step back into line, a mob jumps to their feet
Once the manipulation is successful, the people will follow the manipulated person even when they're in line with the rest.

Now dance, fucker, dance, man, he never had a chance
Do as you're told, dance to their tune, they never stood a chance against your manipulation.

And no one even knew it was really only you
Others weren't aware that the success of this manipulation couldn't have been achieved if it wasn't for you.

And now you steal away
You took away something that didn't belong to you.

Take him out today
Get rid of the person who was in your way.

Nice work you did
You did a good job manipulating and getting what you wanted.

You're gonna go far, kid
Your manipulation skills are going to take you places.

With a thousand lies and a good disguise
You used a multitude of lies along with an effective disguise to achieve your goal.

Hit 'em right between the eyes
Your manipulation was so precise and accurate that it hit them where it hurts the most.

When you walk away, nothing more to say
Once the manipulation is complete and you got what you wanted, there's nothing else to talk about.

See the lightning in your eyes
The excitement and power you feel after successfully manipulating someone is evident in your eyes.

See 'em running for their lives
The aftermath of your manipulations has caused them to flee in terror.

Slowly out of line, and drifting closer in your sight
As people drift out of line, they become more visible to you, allowing you to manipulate them more easily.

So play it out, I'm wide awake, it's a scene about me
You're very much aware of the manipulation going on, and you've successfully orchestrated it to revolve around you.

There's something in your way and now someone is gonna pay
You see someone as an obstacle to achieving what you want, and they'll suffer the consequences.

And if you can't get what you want, well, it's all because of me
If you're unsuccessful in getting what you want, it's because I didn't manipulate enough or something went wrong with the manipulation.

Trust deceived
Trust was broken and people were deceived.

Clever alibis, Lord of the Flies
You gave convincing explanations for your actions, like a master manipulator, with the intent of taking control like in William Golding's book 'Lord of the Flies'.

Hit 'em right between the eyes
The manipulation was so successful that it struck the victim right where it hurts the most.

So dance, fucker, dance, I never had a chance
You've successfully manipulated them, and they had no choice but to do as they were told.

When you walk away, nothing more to say
Now that you've achieved your goal, there's no reason to talk about it anymore.

Nice work you did
You've done a great job with this manipulation.

You're gonna go far, kid
Your manipulation skills are going to take you places.
