The song name comes from the movie “The Good Son” with Macaulay Culkin and Elijah Wood. In the film, Culkin has a dummy he made named Mr. Highway. Culkin enjoys throwing Mr. Highway off overpasses to cause wrecks. The lyrics are about people attempting to undermine your achievements.
[Intro]
Wake up!
[Verse 1]
Oh, how the times have changed
You're not the person I knew back then, let's get this straight
This is a calling, when will they stop falling for this?
You lack all inspiration
[Pre-Chorus]
We're not the same
I'll do whatever it takes to get it through to you, we'll call this a day
We're not the same
You are worthless, stay in your place
[Chorus]
It's like speaking in tongues to all of you now
(To all of you now)
When will we ever (When will we ever)
Get what we deserve? (Get what we deserve?)
How long until the tables turn? (The tables turn?)
When will we ever (When will we ever)
Get what we deserve?
[Verse 2]
I've created a monster
You bring out a side of me that no one should see
So quit stalling, pack your bags, keep walking away
Your life leads to destruction
[Pre-Chorus]
We're not the same
I've struggled too long to sit back and let you take this from me
We're not the same
I have given (Everything)
[Chorus]
It's like speaking in tongues to all of you now
(To all of you now)
When will we ever (When will we ever)
Get what we deserve? (Get what we deserve?)
How long until the tables turn? (The tables turn?)
When will we ever (When will we ever)
Get what we deserve? (Get what we deserve?)
(Get what we deserve?) Get what we deserve?
[Breakdown]
Disrespect your surroundings
[Bridge]
You won't make it out alive
You won't make it out alive
You won't make it out alive
You won't make it out alive
[Chorus]
It's like speaking in tongues to all of you now
When will we ever (When will we ever)
Get what we deserve?
How long until the tables turn?
When will we ever (When will we ever)
Get what we deserve?
[Outro]
(When will we ever)
(Get what we deserve?)
(When will we ever)
(Get what we deserve?)
