Trivia/Info

Probably anyone who's heard that song and knows this song already knows that that's the reference. It's a lot of words! It's one of those songs that was a huge amount of work, writing all the rhymes and trying to keep it interesting and poetic. I look at the lyric[s] now and think, "Man, I had so much energy! How could I have possibly written all those words?" Obviously, I was drinking coffee.
