Track listing

  1. "Damage" – 3:27
  2. "She Don't Need the Morning" – 3:47
  3. "One Cent Coins" – 3:31
  4. "Open All Night" – 4:05

All songs by Tim Rogers.

"She Don't Need the Morning", "One Cent Coins" and "Open All Night" are all You Am I originals. "Open All Night" was originally titled "Dress Me Slowly" and was destined to appear on the album, but was left off as the band did not like having a song with the album's title on the album (despite having already done this on Sound as Ever and Hourly, Daily, as well as Deliverance and Dilettantes afterwards).

The song "Open All Night" was featured in the 2000 film Better Than Sex.
