Despite having read the post below about the actual lyrics via song booklet, I felt as though "the emperor wears new clothes" seemed plausible... In real life, the phrase is accurately "the emperor wears no clothes" but in the song, when he's singing that all the kids know the emperor wears NEW clothes, it touches upon the surge of materialism/ obsession with "trendiness" present in today's youth culture. He's illustrating the thrashing contrast between modern society and previous generation's values/beliefs in adolescence.
