  • The track listing on the back cover of some pressings does not state the song "Fuck tha Police" as existing on the record. This is most likely due to a typographical error, censorship, or the producers had used too much of the space on the back of the album for the artwork. The original pressing for the album's Canadian release does list that song on the back cover. There are also reports that some versions of the album actually did not contain this song.
  • On the later pressing that included "You Spin Me 'Round (Like a Record)", the song "Everything Sucks" is actually the Andy Wallace remix version.
