It has, however, been included in most re-issues of the album. The song was used in the soundtrack for the  movie .
The song was written from the point of view of a patient who has just had an eye transplant and discovers that he has received the eyes of the executed murderer . Gilmore had requested that his eyes be donated to science after his execution as "they'd probably be the only body part usable". After Gilmore's execution, several of his body parts were removed for possible use as transplants or for study. His corneas were used for transplants.
The song was called "anthemic punk" by Matthew Gilbert of  and a "forgotten gem" by David Browne of .  described it as "the sickest and cleverest record to come out of the new wave: Single of the Week". It was later included at No. 12 in 's list of the best punk rock singles of all time.  -  wikipedia
