Songfacts®:

  • Running to just under two minutes, the song title has no question mark, although its authorship does. Released on the Reprise label, the B-side of "Ev'rybody's Gonna Be Happy" is credited on the record itself to R. Davies (Ray Davies) and on another pressing as R. Davies/Kassner. This latter appears to be a misprint; Edward Kassner was the man who launched the band's career, and his name should have appeared below the songwriter credit rather than as part of it. >>>

    Alexander Baron - London, England
