The animation is of the beginning of the song and follows a man on a bicycle going over some hills until the lyrics are sung. When the words "Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!" are shown, the second "Yeah!" bumps into the first at the bottom and the third hits the first from the top with a lot of secondary motion displayed with a good use of timing. The part of the song saying "I was right all along" has them all typed out aligned to the left and then slowly spinning ninety degrees counter-clockwise and the words "Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!" appear again, but on strings that fall down from the shape.
The next part of the lyrics "You came tagging along" push the whole lot out of the way but it is rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise too (so it is facing from left to right is if the words were top to bottom) and a line appears to which the camera follows.
When the lyrics "Back in your place" appear with their secondary motions, the words "Place" is said for a brief second and the secondary motion repeats itself over (like the word is buzzing).
This method repeats when it reaches the words "So what you waiting for" with the word "For" being focused on for that brief second again.
This next part becomes interesting as it now shows 3D perspective of the words. "Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! appears again but instead of being placed on top of each other, they are spread out from Z axis distances and the lyrics "I was right all along" are now on what seems to be a primitive (possibly a cuboid) and a totally transparent texture placed with the animated lyrics placed in another texture.
Then finally the "Tick tick tick tick tick tick BOOM!" lyrics are shown in time with the song and explodes at the right time too with a egg timer.
I thought this to be a really well planned animation with very good timing, secondary motion and use of primitives where 3D can be seen.
