The song was nominated for the Kerrang! Award for Best Single. The video depicts a series of Abraham Lincoln look-alikes in the White House, portrayed primarily by the band's lead singer Dick Valentine, but stand-ins were used for some scenes. The music video, directed by Tom Kuntz and Mike Maguire, was recorded in April 2003 at a movie studio in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. A radio version in Japan exists in which the same lyrics are replaced with "let's do an edit, do a radio edit". In the censored version of the song, the words "nuclear" and "war" (in the line "let's start a war, start a nuclear war") are cut out and a whip lash sound is used instead. (The actual lyric is "She's just the girl, she's just the girl, the girl you want".) According to Spencer/Valentine, the idea for the song came up from incorrectly hearing the lyrics of DEVO's " Girl U Want" as "it's just a girl, it's just a girl at a gay bar" while the song was playing in a very loud nightclub.
