• A "lacquer head" is someone who gets high from sniffing paint, glue or other toxic substances (lacquer, which is a wood finish, will also do the trick). The song paints a bleak picture for young people addicted to inhalants, as Les Claypool sings about a girl who gets hit by a truck after sniffing turpentine and a kid who goes into a coma after huffing carburetor cleaner.
  
  Like just about every Primus song, it's delivered with a wink and in no way glorifies the characters in the song. Still, Claypool clarified that it "addresses the dangers of chemical abuse."
• This was produced by Fred Durst, lead singer of Limp Bizkit. Primus had a bunch of guest musicians play on or produce tracks on the Antipop album. James Hetfield, Stewart Copeland (Claypool's Oysterhead bandbate), Tom Waits and Tom Morello were some of the other musicians who contributed.
• The video is a mix of live footage and claymation that depicts, among other things, a boy sniffing gasoline and glue. The video was banned by MTV, so Primus premiered it on the website for the Long Beach, California, radio station KNAC.
