Everybody Wants to Rule the World ---- Tears for Fears

I got a little curious about the song because I always wondered what the heck does it even mean?  It sounds good, but it is way, way, way too vague.  So, what makes the song work?  I think it must be because of its vagueness.  The vagueness is like a Rorschach test, as you can project whatever you want it to be onto the song.  And that is why you like it!

The video doesn't give any clues.  Nor does the analysis of the song by a number of people on the web.  I think it is a Seinfeld song, it's about NOTHING.
