Released in 2001, it was the first single off the band's long-awaited third album, Weezer, and the only one of the SS2K The Summer Sessions songs to make it onto the album, although "Dope Nose" and "Slob" were released on ''[[Maladroit]]''. According to an interview with [[Rivers Cuomo]], "Hash Pipe" was written on the same night as the hit song "[[Dope Nose]]" off ''Maladroit''. The story goes that Rivers took "a bunch of Ritalin and had like three shots of tequila," paced around for a while, then wrote both songs.  The song was inspired by a male transvestite prostitute known for rambling to people in Santa Monica.  [[Patrick Wilson]] is featured on the cover of the song's CD single holding a pack of Natural American Spirit cigarettes that has been blurred out due to copyright issues. Since late 2001, the band has played the song live with a reworked guitar solo that no longer follows the verse melody.
