din din din nnnaahhh ba ba bum
nnnaahhhh dee dee deee da
nnnahhhh ba ba bum
nnnaaaaahhhh

love that intro

really opens you up to his most prolific album

also one the best names for a song ever

frank finally embraces his geeky side on this song with a killer riff

i actually used to skip over this for a while but it has quickly become one of my fave "punky" frank songs

amazing chord prgressions

phenomenal

fav line " pppoonnnggg, ball in the machine"

"I could take a walk and really wonder, really wonder"

A song so good it should have been written years before but it was sitting there patiently waiting where they couldn't see it.

Awesome intro / One of the best / Simple progressions that just rock / Killer topic / Nerd / Pong sound effects / 1 minute 34 seconds short

Only one man could write a song like this and he did. Frank Black.

I think it's perfect.

Probably been over a decade since it was played live?

Gosh, something like that. The only criticism you could aim at the song (surely?)
