The entire album is basically about how fleeting fame is (hence the PJ Soles title) and this song is the coda.
It's a reminder that once upon a time, Local H were a big band with a big hit. Now, Scott & Brian have to fight to play any dinky bar they can get into. To feel like big shots, they have to take drugs and remember the good ol' days (at least Scott has to).
And in retrospect, they'd rather be a one hit wonder than nobodies. All the prior sarcasm at the time just feels naive and wasteful in hindsight.

"Remember when you wanted it all to end?"
Kinda sad, huh.
