Trivia/Info
- Mentioned in a Kansas City Star article, on January 27th, 1987:
A dial-a-song service - (718) 387 6962 - features a different non-album cut daily by the band, including the "you can't always get what you bought" ditty "Self-Made Millionaire"."This fabulously wealthy guy comes home, he's a creep and his wife kills him," Flansburgh said of the song. "It's a very quick story."
- This song is also listed on the 2001 Songs T-shirt, as well as the song list in the liner notes of A User's Guide To They Might Be Giants.
- In a 2026 Tumblr response, Flansburgh said he thinks there are two different versions of the song.
- Flansburgh has said that he would be surprised if the song wasn't publicly available,[1] despite having no official release or known bootleg Dial-A-Song recording. Though he has also mentioned possibly still owning a copy of the song.[2]
