Interesting facts and trivia about Edge of the World. By Songfacts®.

With lyrics by lead singer Mike Patton, this song is about a pedophile on the loose for little kids. Bass player Billy Gould, keyboard player Roddy Bottum and drummer Mike Bordin composed the music. Gould explained how this song came about: "The way we write is visual. We start by describing a scene to one another. Say there's a guy in a beat-up Cadillac with ripped upholstery. Empty Kentucky Fried Chicken boxes and malt liquor bottles in the back. And there's a baby seat. In fact, that image became 'Edge Of The World.' Mutated a little on the way."
