Released as a single in 1985, \"Smokin' In The Boys Room\" reached #16 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, and became Mötley Crüe's first Top 40 hit. Their version of the song appears in the 1986 film \"The Wraith\".
A Leann Rimes version of the song appeared on the album \"Nashville Outlaws: A Tribute To Mötley Crüe\".
The video focuses on a high school student named Jimmy who is mistreated and misunderstood in school. After he is punished for (truthfully) claiming that a dog ran off with his homework, a frustrated Jimmy goes to the boys bathroom where he sees Motley Crüe in the mirrors. The band pulls him through the mirror to join them, and Jimmy and Motley Crüe watch a dystopian vision of the school through a barred window.
\"Smokin' In The Boys Room\" is a song originally recorded by Brownsville Station in 1973 on their album \"Yeah!\", reaching #3 on the U.S. charts, and later covered in 1985 by Mötley Crüe, with the Crüe's version accompanied by a conceptual music video featuring Michael Berryman as the school principal.
