Structure
- The song, which runs for nearly nine minutes in the full 12" single version, features an infectious driving bass-line with a simple repeated E-G-A-B pattern.
- The song's repetitive chorus "say, oops upside your head/say oops upside your head", has led to the alternate name "Oops Upside Your Head".
- "Just because you don't believe that I wanna dance/don't mean that I don't want to" is also in the chorus, but is not as frequently mentioned and thus the shorter name is usually remembered.

Not to a true, but painted chair?”
