Songfacts®:

  • Guitarist Tom Fletcher and bassist Dougie Poynter wrote this song before playing it to Mark Hoppus. The blink-182 bassist and vocalist also helped the pair pen the track "Hate Your Guts" for the McBusted album.

    Tom Fletcher recalled to Digital Spy: "That was really fun writing that song. It was one of those tracks that even though we'd finished and we'd kind of picked out the funny lyrics, all the way home we were texting each other new lines that, even though they weren't going to make the song, it was just still funny coming up with them."
