Trendy evokes a circus-like chord progression at start, to illustrate the feelings we had at the time as the local punk scene spread from hanging out with friends late night at the city bus stop, drinking beers, and fighting boredom, to new shopping mall all-age clubs where kids spay pained their fauxhawks and wore mall boots, safety pins. This song doesn't age well in my opinion, as we were all a bunch of stupid kid posers, so who am I to judge? But typical.
