The band, who all wore white shirts with a big, black S painted on the front, pulled black ties from around the backs of their necks to form a dollar sign, then started playing a new song titled " Pull My Strings ", a barbed, satirical attack on the ethics of the mainstream music industry, which contained the lyrics, " Is my cock big enough, is my brain small enough, for you to make me a star ?".

" Pull My Strings " was never recorded for a studio release, though the performance at the Bay Area Music Awards, which was the first and only time the song was ever performed, was released on the band's compilation album Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death.

The practice was criticized in the chorus of the Dead Kennedys song " Pull My Strings ", a parody of the song " My Sharona " (" My Payola ") sung to a crowd of music industry leaders during a music award ceremony.

Pull My Daisy ( 1959 ) is a short film that typifies the Beat Generation.

Originally intended to be called The Beat Generation the title Pull My Daisy was taken from the poem of the same name written by Kerouac, Ginsberg, and Cassady in the late 1940s.

Pull My Daisy was accordingly praised for years as an improvisational masterpiece, until Leslie revealed in a November 28, 1968 article in The Village Voice that the film was actually carefully planned, rehearsed, and directed by him and Frank, who shot the film on a professionally lit studio set.

Pull My Daisy was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress in 1996, as being " culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant ".
