We started recording this in 2008, and finished in 2021. It took a while, but it sounds like it was worth the wait.

Guilty Skankin’
She was she was she was sitting in class
Looking so depressed
Her eyes filled with tears because she failed her last test
Now the teacher’s in the front and he’s giving his spiel
Telling her to listen up because he’s such a big deal
She gets up on her desk, throws her books in the air
Started kicking her legs and then swinging her hair
What’s she doing?
What’s she doing? What’s she doing?
What’s she doing? You don’t know?
She was she was she was skankin!
She was Skankin’!
That a girl, let ‘em know
Feel the music, let it flow
She was Skankin’!
She was Skankin’!
He was he was he was
He was working like a dog, yeah he’d rather be dead
He’s at lunch but he’d rather eat a bullet instead
But he’s gotta do to his job, cause he’s got to pay his bills
Like the car, the phone and the rent and the meals
All we have to do is move
All we have to do is move
All we have to do is move around
A voice in his head said his life isn’t right
Man, if I had it my way I’d be dancing all night.
So What’s he doing? What’s he doing?
What's he doing? What’s he doing?
I don’t know?
He was skanking!
He was Skankin’!
Atta boy, dead end job
Gotta go gotta go
He was Skankin
He was Skankin
So what you gonna do when you get back home?
You gonna watch tv in your room alone?
You gonna go on the internet and google search boobs?
Gonna play Halo, pwn some noobs?
You want that Ron Popeil “Set it, forget it.”
You can’t buy shit because you’ve got bad credit.
You think about things you wish you would have done?
You gonna do everything besides have fun.
No!
(Solos)
Skankin’!
He was Skankin!
Atta girl let ‘em know
Feel the music let it flow!
Skankin’!
Skankin!

These guys were a huge inspiration for us and easily one of my favorite locals bands in high school and college. It's super exciting to hear them produce new music for the first time in forever. The Guilty Parties
I spent two years of my life playing bass HP2 and I loved it. Half Past Two was professional, they taught me a lot about music, and I loved spending time with them and making sweet, sweet music. The Guilty Parties
