Interesting song title

contains one of my fave frank opening lines

i like the slurring of the lyrics in this song
much as he does in the song "distance equals rate by time"

it just sounds sexy and groovy, it is also quite agressive

i also think that this osng has his first great guitar solo of his solo career (yes hang on to your ego is great , but it is a cover)

fav line: "wait heyheyait, it isnt so great, since you learned karatee chop chop chop"

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

A true FB classic. 90-odd seconds of glory.

A great companion to Pong. One without the other just isn't the same.

There's a bootleg of a Catholics gig ('99, Lacrosse) where they play Pong / Humboldt / Thalassocracy, in this order. Doesn't work at all. It's like separating Siamese twins.

Maybe the only tour that Pong was not needed.
