"Lazy Eye" was the Goo Goo Dolls' contribution to the soundtrack of Batman & Robin in 1997, and it's a milestone of sorts: the band's first studio recording with Mike Malinin behind the drums. John Rzeznik wrote it on his own, words and music, and Paul Q. Kolderie and Sean Slade produced and engineered it, with Tom Lord-Alge handling the mix.

It was only ever issued in promotional form, but it didn't vanish. When "Iris", their song for City of Angels the following year, came out as a single, "Lazy Eye" rode along on the B-side. The video keeps things simple: the band playing in a dimly lit warehouse.
