Samples / Lyrics

• The theme "The Past Inside The Present" is continued within this track. In addition to these vocals, there is a soft "Purple" uttered twice during this song, first at the 3:52 mark and then again at 3:54.
• [dave_from_2001] suggests that the voice near the end (around 3:52) could be saying "be careful".
• The vocoder that enters at 1:15 is believed to be saying "We all fall down". (Or possibly "yel-low ball.")

There was a Five Iron Frenzy t-shirt about X-Men that had Storm in a subway car asking Gambit, "Have you ever heard of Five Iron Frenzy?" and Gambit replies, while talking into a handset, "Yeah. They owe me a dollar." A reproduction of GL's head's Attention! flash during the WiR frame was extended in the subway ads in the upper right.
