"Old Timer" is one of very few singles released by the band, and it was a promotional release only. It featured a pair of rare tracks, including "[[I Invented A Head]]", which was the B-side to the original "[[Grunge Couple]]" vinyl single, and a live version of "Grunge Couple", the original single version having appeared on CD on ''[[DGC Rarities Vol. 1]]''. The disc was rounded out by the LP versions of the title track, and "[[She Looks At Me]]", a song that was covered by [[The Rentals]] in demo form, and rleased on that band's 2001 fan club disc ''[[Excellent Stocking Stuffer]]''. | "Old Timer" is one of very few singles released by the band, and it was a promotional release only.

=="Old Timer" lyrics== | |||
<lyrics>Hey old timer, can I ask you a question | |||
While you're standing at the buffet? | |||
Is this your first or second helping? | |||
Why'd you come here anyway? | |||
Hey old timer, why ya drinkin' the wine at Shakeys? | |||
Hey old timer, I can tell your feet get achey. | |||
Was it the ?? special that got you? | |||
Did you cut your coupons in the Sunday Times? | |||
You got your chili, don't forget your cornbread. | |||
I can tell you come here all the time. | |||
Did your friends say they couldn't make it? | |||
Did you come here all alone? | |||
Two-for-one's a stretch, you'll have to fake it. | |||
Maybe we can share, I'm on my own. | |||
Hey old timer, why ya drinkin' the wine at Shakeys? | |||
Hey old timer, I can tell your feet get achey. | |||
Hey old timer. Hey old timer. Hey old timer. | |||
Hey old timer. | |||
