Page 67 is about the moment that confirmed 67 had reached escape velocity. Schools started trying to ban it. Teachers started getting frustrated when they had to say "turn to page sixty-seven" in any textbook ever, because they knew exactly what was coming. The kids would lose it. Every time. Without fail.
That's the Streisand effect, perfectly. Tell a teenager they can't do something and you just made it a thousand times funnier. There's a whole generation of kids who'd never thought about page 67 of their algebra book until it became contraband, and then it was the best joke of the year. We wrote this song right in the middle of all that.
What we wanted to capture is the joy of friendly chaos. Page 67 isn't a song about being mean to teachers. Look at the lyrics. Half of it is the teacher fighting a smile and losing. That's how it actually happened in most rooms. The teacher knew it was funny. The kids knew the teacher knew. Everyone was in on it. The school just had to pretend to be mad about it.
Schools banning things they don't understand is its own kind of tradition: phone calls, chewing gum, baggy jeans, fidget spinners, 67. The list goes on. The bans never work. The bans only confirm that the thing is real and the kids are connected and the adults missed it. That's a feature, not a bug. The whole point of being fourteen is finding the things adults don't get yet.
The breakdown in the middle of the song, "Everybody be quiet! SIX-SEVEN!", is basically a transcript of every classroom on the planet in early 2025. Brazil, the UK, Australia, the Philippines, the US: same bit, same chaos, same overwhelmed teacher. We didn't have to make any of that up. Real teachers told us about it. Some laughed about it, some were tired about it. All of them knew it was real.
If you're a teacher reading this, sorry. Also: thank you for being chill about it. The kids will remember it more than the algebra. You're a 6-7, teach. Highest possible compliment.
Perfect State
