Originally on the band's first record, "Bonafide". As with the redos of the other songs from that record, THIS is the way it always should have sounded. And also like the other redos, all instruments and vocals are courtesy of M. Corcoran (the "last man standing"). If you want something done right….

Written about 2 neighbors I lived next door to in NYC during the mid/late 80’s who constantly complained about my practice volume whilst they cranked non-stop Tiffany music day and night. Ah, the good old days….

Lyrics

Neighbors whining, "Turn that shit down! We don't like your kind 'round here".
Well I can't help but laugh in his face and think, "I bet your dog's a queer".

And I say, "Hey!... Go!... To!... Hell!...."
"Hey!... Go!... To!... Hell!...."

I hear pounding, the door gets kicked in. "Uh oh boys, it's the noise police!"
Away they take me to the station, and there they ask me for any last requests.

And I say, "Hey!... Go!... To!... Hell!...."
"Hey!... Go!... To!... Hell!...."

Strapped into the stereo chair, death by high fidelity.
Headphones on and I'd rather be dead than have to hear more Tiffany!

And I say, "Hey!... Go!... To!... Hell!...."
"Hey!... Go!... To!... Hell!...."
