This is a song about being bored of culture in general. Although I can't relate to new wave overtones, anyone can relate to what he's talking about. Basically, he's saying once something gets popular, whether it's music, or a style, or whatever, it just gets so overused and watered down that the original idea behind it that made it great is gone. It becomes nothing more but a sales pitch, and it's depressing to see that happen to something.
