That really seems to say that originally side 2 came first... so I wonder why when it was rereleased on SST and then re-rereleased on DGC they used an alternate tracklist. Soooo weird.

i think this picture actually gives us our answer, but not in the way you think.

read the fine print! above 'inhuman' it says "THIS:" indicating that this side (side 2) begins with Inhuman. and "THAT:" side (which would be side 1, whose label depicts the front cover image) begins with "Bad Mood". however, it looks like they took the CD back cover directly from the vinyl label, so side 2 appears first (the original vinyl had no track list on the back, check the discog for those curious).

i've wondered for years why the track list was depicted that way on the CD and i'll bet this is exactly the answer. (although 'inhuman' is the last song on side 1 of my vinyl, it's SST...)

that solved, i still want to know why "she's in a bad mood" says 'version'...
