It was written by Frank Black around late '93/early '94.
Frank recorded it with Teenage Fanclub for a John Peel Session in '94, and it's on the Black Sessions cd (French gig '94)
You can get the Peel Session version here: http://download.yousendit.com/22458CA20C191C1B

"I wonder if those Glaswegian background vocals could ever be matched – truly precious", said Frank.

I always enjoy this song. It's one of Frank's more playful tunes. Very fun to play and sing along to.

I don't know why nobody mentions it, maybe because there's no studio version?

This song is what got me into Teenage Fanclub.

I guess the Peel Session is pretty much a 'studio' version; anything recorded down in Maida Vale is generally pretty good quality. And it was, of course, released as an official CD.

TF supported Pixies when they played Lansdowne Road.

Well yeah, it is a studio version, but I'm sure you all know what I meant.
