* MerryInMinorKey: "Albuquerque" is, well, a ''weird'' example. Most of the song is played in F Minor, although aside from the guitars playing F notes, the verses are mostly atonal. The chorus, which is repeated several times throughout the song, are where you can hear the minor key most clearly. However, there's also one short segment ("If you'd like to make a call...") which is played in F Major. The song tells a story that is quirky and fun, even though it occasionally dips into BlackComedy.

** The viewpoint character of "Albuquerque" is also rather prickish at times, especially when he decides to respond to a man remarking he hasn't had a bite in days by actually taking a bite out of him and later cuts off a man's arms and legs [[SarcasmBlind when he sarcastically instructed him to do so]], rather callously complaining that the man he bit is screaming in pain instead of appreciating his play on words and insinuating that the man he de-limbed brought it on himself because it wasn't clear he was being sarcastic, in addition to thinking the limbless man has no reason to complain when his condition has earned him the nickname "Torso Boy".
