The song was co-produced by Danny Saber and Stephen Lironi.

It was written by Shaun Ryder and released by Radioactive Records.

The sample "Would he agree that a stately minuet would be preferable to the rain dance" is taken from Sir Thomas Arnold asking a question of John Major in the House of Commons in 1994.
