Highway 90’s

Verse 1

I turned the key in a beat-up car

Static on the radio, driving way too far

No GPS, just a paper map

Sunset bleeding through a baseball cap

Windows down, summer in the air

Gas station soda, twenty bucks to spare

Somewhere between a memory and a dream

The road sign said 1993

Pre-Chorus

And every mile marker feels like home

A place we thought we’d never outgrow

Chorus

I’m on the Highway to the 90’s

Where the world was loud and the nights were free

Every exit sign is a memory

From a basement band to MTV

Cruising past the good old days

Where nobody cared what the headlines say

Just a mixtape and a broken stereo

On the Highway to the 90’s we go

I think I could stay on this highway, forever, and ever and ever

⸻

Verse 2

First exit says Arcade Lane

Street Fighter battles in the pouring rain

Next stop’s Nintendo Drive

GoldenEye nights until 3:05

Billboard reads Blockbuster Blvd

Friday night movies you had to rewind

Jurassic Park roars down the street

While we quote dumb lines we can’t repeat

Pre-Chorus

And every mile marker feels like home

Back before we all had phones

Chorus

I’m on the Highway to the 90’s

Where the world was loud and the nights were free

Every exit sign is a memory

From a basement band to MTV

Cruising past the good old days

Where nobody cared what the headlines say

Just a mixtape and a broken stereo

On the Highway to the 90’s we go

I think I could stay on this highway, forever, and ever and ever

⸻

Bridge

Exit sign says MTV Road

Back when music videos stole the show

Blink on the stereo, Nirvana too

Green Day screaming from a bedroom view

VH1 plays the classics late

TRL crowds at the studio gate

No feeds to scroll, no likes to chase

Just real life moving at its own damn pace

Another sign says Summer ‘99

Skateboards cracking on the county line

Friends in a car with nowhere to be

Just chasing songs and bad TV

No Facebook, X, or insta, just the moments we carry in our hearts, on this highway forever, and ever

⸻

Final Chorus

Yeah we’re on the Highway to the 90’s

Where the world was loud and the nights were free

Every exit sign is a memory

All That laughs on Nickelodeon screens

Passing signs for simpler days

Before the noise and the endless rage

Just a mixtape and a midnight show

On the Highway to the 90’s we go

⸻

Outro

Tail lights fading in the stereo glow

If you miss those days… you already know

Just take that road where the old songs play

The Highway to the 90’s is never that far away.

No, I don’t want to go back Facebook likes, the bullshit on X , the crazies on instagram. Everyone one hating everyone because of a political ideology,

No politician ever worked for you but their own votes

I want to stay on the 90’s highway forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever!
