The protagonist is bored and dissatisfied with his life and spends his time using drugs and skipping school. He goes on a road trip with his partner and meets new people along the way, but ultimately feels disconnected from his suburban home. Despite feeling like he needs to grow up and get a job, he would rather continue his rebellious lifestyle and leave his hometown behind. The chorus repeats that he is "checked out" and waiting for the weekend, suggesting a desire to escape his current reality.
