The tracklist appears as a continuous text, taken from the lyrics of Prince's rap in 'Push' (track C4) , the song titles are highlighted by capital letters, as follows:

"It's ? THUNDER when I'm on the mike ? DADDY
POP is in the house and u're sho 2 like his
? DIAMONDS, sho 2 like his ³ PEARLS cuz I'm good
2 ? CREAM every boy and girl, I'm ? STROLLIN'
steadyhippoprockin' rollin', a ? WILLING AND
ABLE ? GETT [horny pony] OFF and I'm pumping 'em from
Pakistan 2 Poland, straight into yo town...snatchin' up
kiddies like a circus clown." ? WALK DON'T WALK
? JUGHEAD ?? MONEY DON'T MATTER 2
NIGHT ?? PUSH ?? INSATIABLE ?? LIVE 4 LOVE

Note: the i-sound (for: i'm) appears with a [Eye Symbol] substitute and 'horny pony' override 'GETT OFF'
