Notes

• The artwork for the single is similar to those of The Jesus Lizard, in particular their album Goat
• The band performed the song when they appeared on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on January 19, 2007. The song was played without the 40-second intro from the album version, but featured the instrumental outro, which is cut from the radio edit. A month later, on February 26, they performed the song again on the Late Show with David Letterman.
• The song was featured in an episode of the television show, Friday Night Lights.
