|---|---|---|---|
| And Now I Want You Back With Me | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Real nice ballad-type song, but all the girls screaming spoiled it | |
| Blink Twice | Words & Music by Scott Bracken | Real short - Usually ended before most folks got out of their seats | |
| Casuality of Love | Words & Music by Scott Bracken | A good crowd pleaser with some clever pauses and false endings | |
| Corri Says | Words & Music by Ricky Sonkin | Ricky complains about his roommate Lori in this song - When she shows up at a gig one night, he changes the title to Corri (what a wuss) | |
| Don't Wait Up For Me | Words & Music by Scott Bracken | Interesting song, but I never figured out where it came from - Kinda like Scott's "dark side" | |
| Factory | Words & Music by Scott Bracken | Scott singing about things he hates | |
| Food | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Steve's favorite subject at the time | |
| Go Away | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Too many lyrics - Chris could never remember all of them | |
| I Don't Love You | Words & Music by Scott Bracken | Made all the girls scream - Weird since it is such a simple song, and Ricky's backup vocals kinda sucked | |
| I Wanna Dance With You | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Neat song, with a short Mambo thing in the middle | |
| Machine Gun Love | Words by Chris Murdock, Music by Scott Bracken | Chris got the idea for this one while driving in the car one night, I can still see him walking in the door singing it - Made the single | |
| Need Juh | Words & Music by Scott Bracken | Scott's best song, and a favorite of our fans too | |
| No, No | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Written just before the trip to N.Y., this one never made it on any of our tapes - Too bad, it had some nice drums | |
| Nothin' To Say | Words & Music by Ricky Sonkin | A pretty good song, well sung, with a bass solo too | |
| Psycho Surfer | Words & Music by The Defex | Scott & Steve came up with intro hook one night while just fartin' around - Made the single too | |
| Ripped, Torn, & Tattered | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Good drums to this one, and some well thought out rhymes | |
| Ruined For Life | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Steve's worst nightmare | |
| Running Out On Me | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | My all time favorite - by far the best melody and harmonies - I wanted this to be on the single, but got out-voted | |
| Some Body | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Another of my favorites - nice bouncy bass lines with good drums behind it, and a good guitar break in the middle too | |
| There Ought To Be A Law | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Steve get's it off his chest. Nice bass lines. | |
| Those Boss Dudes | Words & Music by Scott Bracken | A song about The Violators, a group from Denver | |
| Time On My Hands | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | I always liked the lyrics to this one - Nice guitar chops too | |
| Toxic Shock Syndrome | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Saw a news item about some kid that got this, and got inspired (way before the it became a wide-spread disease) | |
| Tuff | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | This was our first song as a group - Ricky's idea about the high-hat made it a good song - Good warm-up song that we usually opened up with | |
| Turn On You | Words & Music by Scott Bracken | The second song we wrote - high energy from start to finish - Whipped it up while sitting in Loren's trailer | |
| Wants And Needs | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | Great ending! Still makes me rush today - I give Sonkin 1/4 credit for it, which is probably more than he deserves | |
| You're My Girl | Words & Music by Steve Kulpa | A nice bouncy song - Too bad Steve's harmonies stink |

| Dead Heat On A Merry-Go-Round | Alan Milman | Alan had a knack for coming up with very good lyrics - This song was a fine example of that |

| Feel A Whole Lot Better | The Byrds | An excellent cover arranged by Scott |
| Just My Style | Gary Lewis | I hated this song, we tried it slow, we tried it fast, it sucked! - Only did it cuz Ricky's buddy's band did a GL song and he wanted to do one too - PU |
