This song is loosely based on "Come a Little Bit Closer" by Jay and the Americans. If you listen to them, you hear the similarities. Dicky has mentioned in interviews that he and the other members of the band (but Dicky especially), are fans of old music (like Jay and the Americans). So they would, from time to time, throw in references to those songs, or even do melody sections that called back to those old songs. Another example is is 737 Shoe Glue references/calls back to "Rain Drops Keep Falling on my Head" by Burt Bacharach and BJ Thomas.
