Another song written during the brief period D.H. Peligro was in the band. A sarcastic ditty about the desperation some bands had to be noticed by the press and the music industry, with a particularly cutting line that begged David Letterman to notice them. Within seven months they would perform on Letterman themselves. Another wish, about being on the cover of Rolling Stone, would be granted a few years later.
