Trivia/Info
- This is a song about getting rich after getting hurt—here, in a bicycle accident—and successfully suing the offender. Notably, TMBG's Dial-A-Song service was created after John Linnell himself was injured in a bicycle accident.
- This is the same recording as the State Songs album version, with different mixing and time-stretched by 0.1%.
- The line "Lift that fork, eat that snail" alludes to the Hammerstein/Kern song "Ol' Man River", which includes the line "Tote dat barge, lift dat bale".
