"Make Me a Pallet" was written in late [[1991]] | "Make Me a Pallet" was written in late [[1991]] or early [[1992]].<ref name="rechist2">[[Recording_History_-_Page_2#December_1991-January_1992:_.22The_50_Song_Project.22|Weezer Recording History - Page 2]]</ref> The [[Recording_History_-_Page_2#December_1991-January_1992:_.22The_50_Song_Project.22|Weezer Recording History]] lists the song as part of Cuomo and {{PN|Patrick Wilson}} informal "[[50 Song Project]]," wherein the two attempted to compose fifty new songs in order to form a new band (the band that would ultimately become [[Weezer]]), though the Recording History concedes that "Make Me a Pallet" was a "silly song" that "[didn't] really count as one of the '50'". The song appeared on a demo cassette tape by Cuomo titled [[Weezer (Rivers Cuomo tape)|''Weezer'']] (prior to the formation of the band of the same name). The song is an instrumental, featuring acoustic guitar, harmonica, and nonverbal vocalizations. | ||

Days later, the song was made widely available for purchase as part of the demo compilation ''[[Alone V: Before Weezer]]''. | |||
