It is one of three songs on [[The White Album]] to be written solely by [[Rivers Cuomo]]. On a Periscope Livesteam in April, Rivers sang alternate lyrics at the ending chorus. In an interview for the show [https://audioboom.com/posts/4851253-weezer-on-touring-with-panic-at-the-disco-loving-the-usa-new-music-and-working-with-producer 2 Hours with Matt Pinfield], Cuomo explained that the song was originally titled "'''Co-Dependent'''" and described a relationship that was "getting ugly", but didn't seem to "take-off" with the music.
