Trivia/Info
- The Johns claimed that the vocals for this song were taken from a song by Jem And The Holograms directly off a cassette tape that came with the toys, on top of which they laid their own beat. However, this story was generally dismissed considering the song's sexually suggestive lyrics. In 2014, John Flansburgh revealed that the female vocalist was Jennifer Neff [1], who also did the vocals for "Live Like Pigs" and "Doris Cunningham" from The Frank O'Toole Show.
- The bridge of this song is very similar to the bridge of "Lie Still, Little Bottle."
- The line tears running down my spine is a reference to "Love Me, I'm a Liberal" by Phil Ochs.
