My introduction to this song was Gwar's cover in tribute to Oderus. Great song, 10/10.

That was a surprisingly moving cover.

Mines Boinks cover from Dawn of the Dead.

I found out years later that the Leonardo DiCaprio movie The Basketball Diaries is based on Jim Carroll’s life and I think has some of the people from the song in it. I haven’t actually watched it, but saw bits of it on TV when I worked in broadcasting

Jim Carroll wrote a book called "The Basketball Diaries" and it is pretty funny. The sequel "Forced Entries" is good, but not great.

Jim wrote that book as an autobiography.

Thanks! Didn't even realize it before you said something.
