10. Cult of Cool

Revenge Of The O.C. Supertones
by The O.C. Supertones



 

It's just another lie to sell to me
But I'm not buying
To live the way they do on MTV
Yeah you're trying

Just a little too hard and we can see through
There's a guy in a suit and he's trying to tell you
What you should like and what you should do
Will you fall in with the world or will you say

We won't pay for a lie
Get away right away
I want Christ, Christ alone
Christ to call me His own

Chorus
We won't play by your rules
Here is one you won't fool
I think it's dumb
I won't succumb to the cult of cool
To the cult of cool
To the cult of cool

To them you're just a number on a page
A target market
Try it out on someone your age
And hope you buy it

You're trying too hard and we can see through
There's a guy in a suit and he's trying to tell you
What you should like and what you should do
Will you fall in with the world or will you say

We won't pay for a lie
Get away right away
I want Christ, Christ alone
Christ to call me His own

Chorus

There is a decision to be made
Will you conform?
That is how the companies get paid
Or are you transformed?

You pay somebody to poison your mind
Will you be a target marker or will you be a gold mine?
There's a brainwash store and they're waiting in line
Will you fall in with the world or will you say

We won't pay for a lie
Get away right away
I want Christ, Christ alone
Christ to call me His own

Chorus

Behind the Song:
'It's tough being a kid. Especially today. There's so much pressure to fit in, and if you don't you're subject to ridicule and exclusion. You're either 'cool' or you're out and that's that. But who decides what's hot and not? MTV literally rules the minds of teenagers. Do you realize that a bunch of rich grownups are setting the standards of music, fashion, and lifestyle for teenagers?!? Everyday marketing executives are pressuring you to 'conform to the patterns of this world'. I suggest to you not to give in but instead 'be transformed by the renewing of your mind' you may not belong to the cool cult, but you will belong to Christ, and He doesn't go out of style.' - Matt Morginsky (The O.C. Supertones)
