In the video, Tim Alexander's bass drum reads Buck Naked and the Bare Bottom Boys, a tribute to Phillip Bury, lead singer of that band.

The video appeared on Primus' Tales from the Punchbowl [CD-ROM] album as well as the 2003 EP/DVD release Animals Should Not Try to Act Like People, along with an in-depth making-of feature.
