* [[Hypocrite]]: "Aha!"'s first two verses- one is about a man who, while saying he couldn't eat wheat, or meat, or dairy (because of his own choices, not because of allergies), later ate a chocolate biscuit containing wheat and dairy, knowing its contents. Imogen wasn't amused (especially since she'd just taken a huge amount of care to make him a dinner he could eat). The second verse is about one of her neighbours, who, despite being an environmental activist, wanted to cut down a tree so he could see his car. Imogen really wasn't amused. [[Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick|The third verse is about a murderer.]]

* [[Instrumentals]]: The deluxe version of ''Ellipse'' featured a second disc containing the entire album in this form. Since "The Fire" was already an instrumental, Heap removed the piano solo [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|leaving just the crackling fire]].

* [[Lyrical Dissonance]]: "Goodnight and Go" (a silly, happy song about being infatuated with someone to the point that you're stalking them), "Getting Scared" (a slow but upbeat song about a girl getting revenge on her childhood tormenter), and "Shine" (which is thought to be about someone who is going to commit suicide but finally decides not to, and to keep going with their life), among others.
