Goblin Valley State Park in Utah is a very cool, very beautiful place, with lots of mountain ranges, campsites, and hiking trails you can really get lost in. If you ever have the privilege of hiking around Goblin Valley, don’t do it in Reebok Classics. They don’t stay on your feet, nor do they provide sufficient traction. This song is not about that, but it’s about overcoming a difficult thing you’re not prepared for, and what a relief it is when it’s over.
lyrics
Hiking ‘round a mountain in my reebok classics, trying to get my ducks all in a row. We were half a mile out when I looked around and found that if we died no one would ever know. I also came to find that I was fine with that I think, because nothing actually comes in threes, and the fountain at the mall does not have wish granting abilities. So there was nowhere else I thought I’d rather be. Furthermore, there is no rhyme or reason to why people die or get diseases. Nothing’s going to happen when the stars align, and Mike Piazza is just a regular guy. Turns out, it doesn’t bother me to be referred to as, “a menace to society.” The suspension of my disbelief has had its time and place, but I got different demons to face, better demons to face. I made it ‘round a mountain in my reebok classics, feeling quite inspired by the scene. And the billions of timelines that have nothing to do with me made me think there’s nowhere else I’d rather be! Turns out, it doesn’t bother me to be referred to as, “a menace to society.” Two lines that are not parallel will eventually meet, and I think there’s nowhere else I’d rather be.

What a damn solid record! It's the perfect example of why I'm certain that Ska Punk is going to play on the highlight reel when I hit up the afterlife. Scott

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
