the b-side

It came out on the “Anyone Can Play Guitar” single in February 1993, alongside “Coke Babies”, and it dates from before that: one of the songs the band were carrying through the On a Friday years and into the first album sessions.

Almost nothing is documented about how it was written or what it is about.
