In June 2000, Dave Faulkner said "... [it] was written about one of my pet subjects: evangelical preachers and their hypocrisy. As a later song of mine says, 'Follow any creed / If my freedom's guaranteed / I don't mind.'".[1]

Dream Syndicate members Steve Wynn & Mark Walton provided background vocals for this single.[2]
