Notes

The song This Is Madness opens with the following lyrics;

All my dreams have been turned
into psychedelic nightmares
with Rosemary's Baby
pissing in my face
and Tiny Tim sticking his moldy penis
into my bleeding mind
and it cries for the strength
to repel the sanctimonious sound
of the white rock group the Grateful Dead
