Yū Aku
At the time of the song's release, songwriter Yū Aku was often asked if it was inspired by the Lockheed bribery scandal in Japan, as the arrest of Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka was fresh in the public's memories. Aku responded by saying the song took inspiration from Inspector Clouseau from "The Pink Panther" series, as well as Shirō Sone's song , Rakugo's , soft drinks such as Dr Pepper, and The Beatles' album "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band".
