Rules,” is loosely set to the tune of “Shall We Dance?” from the original The King and I. * Sean Penn’s destruction of the camera is a reference to his assault of a paparazzi. * "Yeah, this is a real SNAFU!" SNAFU: Situation Normal All Fouled Up. Slang abbreviation of military origin. "Fouled" is a euphemism for the actual "Fucked." * The lyrics mention "As surely as Paul Lynde was gay", referring to the long-time character actor and center square on Hollywood Squares had a strikingly "flaming" persona, but he remained in the closet due to the prejudices of the time.
