The Futons would like to thank Tom for hugging Todd, giving Chad a fag, and for simply existing. We would also like to thank Night Rider, Pac-Man, Mr. T for without them we wouldn't exist. Thanks to any girl who will speak to us, any one who bought this tape... BIG thanks to Koot, Chad's Hair, Susan and Kari, The K-Boys, "Bob", and anyone who thinks we're cool!!!

The song F.A.G. is not meant to put down homosexuals, it simply refers to the chords!

Cover by Danny.
