John Squire (Speaking to the NME, 1989): "Made of Stone about making a wish and watching it happen. Like scoring a goal in a Cup final…on a Harley Electroglide…dressed as Spider-Man".

B-side Guernica (the title of which references Pablo Picasso's Guernica) is made of stone in reverse, but with forward lyrics.
