How far down the highway
Do you paint the center line?
You know no one is coming back
It's all taillights after that sign
How far out into your future
Do you think the bills are paid?
Neither you nor the status quo
Make it anywhere near that day
The world is ending,
it's so cool to say
Making it sound like
your judgement day
The world is ending,
authority's corrupt
And we'll never know
If you're on that bus
Denial is always the easiest path
Reality's a bit of a crook
Never mind we'll comfort each other
And add all this to our book
(chorus)
You surround yourself with women and children
You line your cave with furs
Authority derived from trapping the powerless
You only make their lives worse
(chorus)
Teach everyone to praise the missing
Grow old in a clean safe place
We all think it'll be different for us
One day we've forgotten your face
(chorus - If you're driving that bus)
How far down that highway
Do you paint these awful signs?
