== Trivia ==
* Grimes wanted the song to be a single, but Columbia Records, her label at the time, thought it wasn't single material.
* The lyric 'I look like a flower, but I'm a serpent underneath' is taken from William Shakespeare's tragedy Macbeth, where Lady Macbeth tells Macbeth to "Look like th' innocent flower, but be the serpent under't" in order to not be suspected of murdering king Duncan.https://quicklitsstudyhelp.wordpress.com/2018/01/27/quote-of-the-week-look-like-th-innocent-flower-but-be-the-serpent-under-t/
