Are we at the hut now? [To the tune of Chappell Roan's 'Casual']

[Verse One]

My friends call me a loser

'Cause I like walking around

I've heard so many rumors

That Carkeek’s a picnic and all on flat ground

I thought this tramp would be easy

A nice track that we couldn't lose

You said, "It’s just like a Great Walk"

So now when I trip, I have anger issues

You said, "Hut’s just round the corner"

But we're

 

[Chorus]

Knee deep in a bog and my feet

fucking hurt and I’m cold,

Are we at the hut now?

I feel weak, and it’s getting dark quick, 

dropped my phone in the creek,

Are we at the hut now?

I don’t care what the topo says

Are we at the hut, at the hut now?

Should’ve stayed at home again

Are we at the hut, at the hut now?

 

[Verse Two]

Wore crocs, I love being stupid

Dream of ultralight gear

Maybe we’d be at the summit 

I wouldn't be walking up all of these stairs

I know “Baby, it’s a picnic” 

But we're

 

[Chorus]

Knee deep in a bog…

 

[Bridge]

It's hard having type 2 fun

When you’ve only slept for like 15 minutes 

And it’s hard having type 2 fun

When I’m walking weird cause I’ve got eight blisters

And I try to be the chill girl

That holds her tongue with no complaints

I try to be the chill girl

But honestly, I’m not

 

[Chorus]

Knee deep in a bog…

 

[Outro]

I fucked up both my ankles, we’re hours late for dinner 

You ate all of my chocolate, you wonder why I'm bitter

Bragging to your friends, “I beat DOC time cause I’m fitter”

I hate to tell the truth, but I'm sorry, dude, you didn't

I hate that I let this drag on so long, now I hate myself

Hate that I let this drag on so long, you can go to hell
