Try to be good when I’m gone
Though nothing you could do would be that wrong
I just wish it didn’t have to be so long
But try to be good when I’m gone
I’m sorry I can’t stop to listen
But I’ve got so much to do and I’ve got someplace to be
The house looks like the aftermath of a hurricane
I hope it stays that way
My timing couldn’t be any worse if I tried
But I find it gets easier in time
I wonder if you ever wonder if I’m somewhere I'd rather be
Doing something I'd rather do?
The suitcase always starts a countdown
I know its ticking away
but it’s moving too slow for me

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
On their first new record in six years, the Virginia garage punkers take on the end of the world with the requisite clang and clamor. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 9, 2024
