Jebediah's drummer, Brett Mitchell, called "Please Leave" the lost song, and he meant it literally. The band played it at Planet in Perth back before Slightly Odway, with Kevin Mitchell's lyrics written out and gaffa-taped to Vanessa Thornton's back, then forgot about it entirely until Chris Daymond turned up the lyric sheet in a guitar case. Rescued, it found a home on the Australian band's second album, Of Someday Shambles, in 1999, and in March 2000 it became the record's third and final single.
All four of them share the music credit, Kevin wrote the words, and Mark Trombino produced, recorded and mixed it, with David Davis and Matt Dufty assisting on the engineering. It got as far as No. 53 on the ARIA chart, and Triple J's listeners voted it into their Hottest 100 for 2000.
