* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]]: There are a few tracks that are very hard to find since they were never released on an album.

It's also quite hard to find songs like "White Soft Rope" and "Gone To Earth", which only appeared on singles.

* [[Non
* [[Punctuated for Emphasis]]: "How? Long? Now? Honestly, how? Long? Now?" from "You Never Know"
** To an extent, "Koko".
Line 59:

* [[Unusual Euphemism]]: "Touch my garden" from "Hairy Trees"
