This song was written by the band to vent their spleens on all the hangers-on that successful bands attract. It tells of their frustration at giving 10% to this guy, 5% to another and at end of the day having handed out all their profits to the 'machine'. It also responds to the critical pasting the band took from music magazine writers who thought it was cool to lag the band.
