* DoubleMeaningTitle: The 2020 standalone single "Silence Trumps Lies" - since the band have said it's about "the importance of listening", the title can be read as using "trump" as in the term from from the card game bridge, or in other words "silence wins out over lies"... But of course with a slight change in punctuation you get "silence [[UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump Trump's]] lies".

* IntentionalEngrishForFunny: "Penpals" is written from the POV of various teens with limited English writing fan letters to a celebrity - lyrics include idiosyncratic phrases like "I am only 13 years and I am crazy of you". The band themselves have said that, after getting signed to [[Creator/GeffenRecords DGC Records]], they got to go through a file of Music/KurtCobain's international fan mail and copied down memorable passages from a few different letters.

* TrrrillingRrrs: mentioned in "Underwhelmed", where the narrator describes a moment when his love interest cursed him out and "and rolled her R's, her beautiful R's" (which is also wordplay on a previous verse where she "rolled her eyes, her beautiful eyes").
