An English version, titled "Dog Eat Dog", was recorded for the soundtrack of Land of Plenty.

"Goodbye Garageland", the b-side to this single, is a tribute to Joe Strummer, who died in 2002. Campino is a big fan of the Clash. The song contains quotes from classic Clash songs.

The music video was directed by Daniel Siegler.

The band performs in an abstract, animated, black, white, and red city, where a highway with cars and trucks, fields with combine harvesters, a jet airplane and a field with pumpjacks play a prominent role as symbols of economy.
