Notes
Motion Picture Soundtrack was dedicated to all those on the messageboard who constantly complain about how we've ruined it and Karma Police was dedicated as: This next one, you probably haven't heard it before, is dedicated to the Prague police, who've been turning back protestors at the Czech border for the past couple days, trying to block them from getting to the meetings on the 26th. This would usually be considered a police state, but I guess when you've got the IMF and The World Bank running things, it doesn't really matter. Egyptian Song was dedicated as: This next one, I'm not to sure what to call it, maybe Black Nile Pyramids.
