* [[Sampling]]: "Crinkle" interpolates the [[James Bond]] theme, and the end of "Hand That Feeds" borrows lyrics from the Christmas carol "We Three Kings".
* [[The Stoic]]: The narrator in "4AM Fight Song" wants to be this, but can't.
* [[Smite Me,
* [[Word Salad Title]]: "Tank Top" is a love song and has nothing to do with the article of clothing. "PB & J" is a breakup song which mentions neither sandwiches nor anything that could be abbreviated to fit those initials.
