According to the 1985 Songfacts, SR-71 singer Mitch Allan wrote this song as a potential lead-off single for his band’s third album. Having been dropped by RCA records when the label merged with Sony Music in 2004, Allan was shopping the record around hoping to get SR-71 signed to a new label, with little success. Bowling For Soup's Jaret Reddick heard the album and loved the song. The bands are friends, and Allan was happy to let Bowling For Soup record it and thrilled when it became a hit.
