* In 2021 [[Needlejuice Records]] reissued [[Marvin%27s_Marvelous_Mechanical_Museum_(Album)|Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum]]; as part of the quality control phase the word was auto-corrected back to "Stories" on the CD and vinyl lyric sheets. The error was fixed in the 2022 reprint. | |||
* There is a short rendition of the song done in an alternative punk style present on the Admittedly Incomplete Demos album, as well as appearing twice in live performances. | |||
