The album consisted of six songs written by Chilton, and six cover versions including Jan and Dean's "The New Girl in School", which had featured as the B-side to their "Dead Man's Curve" single. "It's Your Funeral" is based on Frédéric Chopin's "marche funèbre" which became the 3rd movement of his Piano Sonata No. 2.
