One of franks most iconic songs.

Far superior to th pixes version, although that was just a demo.

I love it the whole way. Very fun and playful.

Has amazing sounding acousatic layers. With a scratcy sound all the way through.

Definatley makes you feel like you are out on the kings highway.

Short, to the point and even through in the f word for good measure.

Evil and plafiul. Pure frank.

Fav line - "By now you know that he was fucked, by now you know he had no luck, he was smashed head on by a giant truck, down mexico waaaaaayyyyyyyy."

"If all you've seen, is violence!"

i like the live/acoustic versions better than the album recording. i've only recently began to really appreciate it.

its amazing how much he plays this live.....you could imagine most artists thinking that this is a throwaway song

I love this song; so simple and so powerful and I think it's placed perfectly on the album. I enjoy all the different versions I've heard, studio, live with the Catholics (I really recommend this one) and although I've only heard a snippet of the Pixies version I think it sounded great.

Back to the album version, I really love that quick strum right at the beginning of the track...it's like taking a quick breath before diving into the song.
