[edit] Trivia/Info
- Most certainly not the same thing as The Pink Album's (She Was A) Hotel Detective. According to John Linnell, this song "was an attempt at a follow-up song in the tradition of 'Peggy Sue Got Married' and 'Let's Twist Again.'"
- At shows, Flansburgh has sung the chorus falsetto (inspiring How Can I Sing Like A Girl?); however, in the studio version, it is a pitch-shifted version of Linnell's voice.

Death, Falsetto, Funny But Sad, Gender Issues, Hotel Detective Series, Intelligence, Espionage, Killing Someone Again, Money, Not In 4-4 Time, Occupations, People (Imaginary), Recycled Material, Windows
