A part at the end of every work day, it's an excuse to play Semisonic's hit named 'Closing Time' which became popular because of the movie 'Friends With Benefits'. Normally the song is played in a dramatic style such as a meaningful exit. An example is at a High-School graduation, as the song 'Closing Time' may have a deeper meaning to some as moving onto a new place and leaving the old. Either that or it's used ironically, however the song is quite catchy.
An example, an office building at 8:00PM
*Closing Time starts*
Bill: "Who the hell is playing that?"
Kyle: "It's Steve, he plays that every damn time we close up..."
Steve: *Chanting to the tune of Closing Time* "I know who I want to take me home, take me home!"

Solarpunk is a movement focused on a positive, ecological vision for a future where technology is used for human-centric and ecocentric purposes. It is a literary, artistic and aesthetic sub-genre and is also closely tied to eco-political activism. Solarpunk narratives have a distinctly positive and utopian foundation in contrast to the often dystopian visions found within other "punk" science fiction genres.
Solarpunk is a literary movement, a hashtag, a flag, and a statement of intent about the future we hope to create.

Closing Time was Tom Waits' debut album, from 1973. It held twelve beautiful tracks, and lasted a great forty-five minutes. Some highlights from the album are Ol' 55, Ice Cream Man, and Grapefruit Moon. The music relies heavily on Waits' exceptional piano-playing skills, and his vocals.
An excerpt from Closing Time's ninth track-
Ice Cream Man

Clickin' by your house about two forty-five
With a sidewalk Sundae Strawberry Surprise,
I got a cherry popsicle right on time
A big stick, mamma, that'll blow your mind

'Cause I'm your ice cream man,
I'm a one-man band (yeah)
I'm your ice cream man, honny,
I'll be good to you.
