Notes

  • Track times are from the actual start of mixtape, excluding NTS indent
  • Artwork is a vintage photograph of a band playing at the Tomorrowland Terrace in Disneyland, California, dated from the 1970s
  • The band in the photograph is playing under a coke sign, "Cement, Gravel, and Rock Co.", could possibly be the name of the act on stage.

Lyrics

  • Track at 1:21:54

On the hill starts a bright new day
Soon the queen will come our way
The hillside's our place to share
A place to grow, love and care

  • Post-punk track at 1:22:43

Is there someone who can understand the things that he says
And there was something he once said to me, a long time ago
Something I never quite understood, something that seems so strange
It seems a long time ago, such a long time ago
And will things ever change?
No things don't ever change

This can since mean nothing to him now, he can take his time
the faces all passing by, and he smiles, he pauses for a while
I stayed up late for you last night, I waited all through the night
It seems a long time ago, such a long time ago

This can since mean nothing to him now, he can take his time
The faces all passing by, and he smiles, he pauses for a while
I stayed up late for you last night, I waited all through the night
It seems a long time ago, such a long time ago
It seems a long time ago, such a long time ago
