* LoveTriangle: "Second Boys Will Be First Choice" is about one. Specifically, the song is about two boys in love with the same girl, and is saying that the boy she does not get together with will find love somewhere else.
-->''Complicated situation made harder every day\\
Boy number two, there is someone for you\\
Just forget her and walk away''


Added DiffLines:

* YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe: The first line of "Second Boys Will Be First Choice" uses "ye" instead of "you". The rest of the song, however, is normal.
