One of the earliest tracks from the On a Friday days, this song appears only on the Manic Hedgehog cassette, though it is fairly easy to obtain on the tape-trade market. Thom described the composition in an early interview:"[It's] based on an artist who was imprisoned for abusing children and spent the rest of his life in a cell, painting, but the song is about isolating yourself so much that one day you realize you haven't got any friends anymore and no one talks to you.
