Tony Hightower - Dead Awhile lyrics

The good guys won the last world war

No one eats meat anymore

The TV shows are all in good taste

They figured out where to put nuclear waste

They put the Berlin Wall back up

And put the lawyers all behind it

Everyone was convinced they'd crack

But it turns out none of them really minded

And of course by this point, people do nothing but smile

And of course by this point, style was going out of style

And of course by this point, I had been dead awhile

They put a guy on Mars

They found a cure for cancer

They solved all the urban problems

They solved all the rural problems too

They put good food in all the stores

And everybody now is so happy

They put an end to all the world wars

And everybody now is so god damned happy

And of course by this point, people do nothing but smile

And of course by this point, Africa drank up the Nile

And of course by this point, I had been dead awhile

Only God was left, unless it was the Devil

Either way, the playing field was now level

And the bars all still closed at one

But no one gave a damn cos life was so fun

Biker chicks and surfer dudes

Were everybody's favorite foods

And world peace was finally achieved

By making all the losers leave

And of course by this point, people do nothing but smile

And of course by this point, style was going out of style

And of course by this point, I had been dead awhile.
