[edit] Trivia/Info

  • Flansburgh says, "This song is not based on any personal experience with baseball great Bill 'Spaceman' Lee, who I quite accidentally met at a TV show right after writing this song. Lee, back in the seventies had a couple of great, controversial seasons with the very conservative Boston Red Sox. When Lee made a couple of appearances on local rock radio stations at the time, he lived up to his name with a very odd 'lost philosopher'-style that made a lasting impression on me."
