Additional Information
Different cassette type. All tracks of this self-released tape can also be found on Mashed Potatoes. She is the live track from The Metro gig on 1998/10/05, also released on Live at Cabaret Metro 10-5-88 in 2000 at the very last concert. The 500 produced is an estimate, it could be far less.
On www.SPFC.org it states about the artwork:
“There are conflicting stories as to whether the artwork was done by Billy Corgan or James Iha. I tend to believe it was Iha, as he was a graphic design student before joining the band. The tape was produced with different color j-cards. Green, red and pink j-cards have been verified. There are different “versions” of the handwritten labels. Some were done by Billy himself, while others were done by unknown parties. At least one version has been documented where both sides of the label were written by different people.”

Lyrics
She always waits for someone
Someone who’ll never leave
Revealing her decision
Her arms cover me
My cup holds no one
To anyone believe
She always waits for someone
Someone, someone just like me
Jennifer
Jennifer ever
Jennifer
Jennifer always tells me
Please don’t be afraid
I just want to hold you
I only want you to stay
My cup holds no one
To anyone believe
She always waits for someone
Someone, someone just like me
Jennifer
Jennifer ever
Jennifer
Jennifer
Jennifer ever
Jennifer
My cup holds no one
To anyone believe
She always waits for someone
Someone, someone just like me
Jennifer

Jennifer - 2 . East
Lyrics
Tried to tell her who I really am
But I'm not so sure that I really can
Well, you've got to know, I don't understand
Well, you've got to know who I really am
Give me one more chance
As a child, I once had a dream
My mother spoke something down to me
She said, "son, you must walk upon your knees
Down the road, headed for the east"
Give me one more chance
Give me one more chance
If I had a way to go, I'd gather up my throwing stone
Tried to tell her who I really am
But I'm not so sure that I really can
Well, you've got to know I don't understand
'Cause I'm not so sure who I really am
If I had a way to go, I'd gather up my throwing stone
If I had a way to go, I'd gather up my throwing stone
- 3 . Nothing And Everything
Lyrics
Hiding behind my hair today
My eyes dance with fire
The thought of living here
And the bounds I transpire
Walking in this slow-motion town
I seem to think so fast
Standing with your mannequin
I try to hold my breath
The grave that bears my name
Transpires in a dream
I dream immortality
Yet I fall in vain
Cause as long as I don’t breathe
I’ll never be like them
Standing with your mannequin
I try to hold my breath
If you go and I would stay
And you would call my name
I would cry, yes, I would cry
Walking in or walking out
Is the same as talking about my heart
My heart
Hiding behind my hair today
Wishing I was far away
Walking in this slow-motion town
I seem to think so fast
Standing with your mannequin
I try to hold my breath
If you go and I would stay
And you would call my name
I would cry, yes, I would cry
Walking in or walking out
Is the same as talking about my heart
My heart
If you go and I would stay
And you would call my name
I would cry, yes, I would cry
If you go and I would stay
You would call my name
I would die, yes, I would die
Walking in or walking out
Is the same as talking about my heart
My heart - 4 . Sun

Lyrics
Quiet walls sputter yes
Rolling tears of pain
Must I go into your hiding room
Using your loss to gain
Walking in the sun
I never fear the light
Walking in the sun
I never fear
Quiet confusion haunts me still
My will can't reign
Must I go into your hiding room
Using your loss to gain
Walking in the sun
I never fear the light
Walking in the sun
Il know that I never fear
Walking in the sun
I never fear the light
Walking in my sun
I know that I never fear
- 5 . She
Lyrics
She will never, ever go
Waiting for her man
Waiting for her man
She will never, ever know
Waiting for her time
Waiting for my time
Wall to wall I hear the noise
Standard in her voice
Simple in her choice
She is everything
Monday to tuesday
Wednesday's another game
Praying for sunday
I'm the one she swore she'd never love
I'm the one I know she's thinking of
She will never, ever burn
Waiting for her time
Waiting for her time
She will never, ever say
Waiting for her game
Waiting for her game
She
She, yeah
She, yeah yeah yeah
Wall to wall i hear the noise
Standard in her voice
Simple in the choice
She is everything
Monday to tuesday
Wednesday's another game
Praying for sunday
I'm the one she swore she'd never love
I'm the one I know she's thinking of
She is everything
Monday to tuesday
Wednesday's another game
Praying for sunday
She is everything
Monday to tuesday
Wednesday's another game
Praying for Sunday

Lyrics
Your words will one day spite your face
And another mouth will come and take its place
It’ll speak and speak and speak and sputter me dry
I will never understand the motive drive
Marked
You
Are
Marked
In a dream I wander on
To the bell tower, writing songs
So I crumple this page, and rip it up
Never piece my broken heart to you
Marked
You
Are
Marked
Your words will one day spite your face
And another mouth will come and take its place
It’ll speak and speak and speak and sputter me dry
I will never understand the motive drive
Marked
Your words will spite your face
Your words will spite your face
Spiteface
Spiteface
Spiteface
Spiteface
