[edit] Origins

The song contains audio samples taken from the 1971 movie Shaft. In the song, the lyrics "A fistful of hair and a splinter in the mind" could possibly refer to Lucio Fulci's 1979 film Zombie in which a zombie grabs a woman by the hair and pulls her through a closet, causing a shard of wood to pierce her eye.

[edit] Music video

The music video, the second music video made for a song off the Astro Creep album, features the band playing in a circus of freaks, clowns, and monsters while riding on a truck.[1]
