In We Came to Dance Brian sings "do the jump back jack, stop and slide to the right" but according to the lyrics sheet it's "like tomorrow the whole world would catch up on fire". Does anybody know why?

Both are references to Springsteen songs. The jump back jack is from thundercrack "She does this thing she calls the "Jump back Jack"" and catch on fire is (probably) from Zero and Blind Terry "Like tomorrow the earth was gonna catch on fire".

Maybe he just fancied a change. None immediately spring to mind, but I think there are some other examples of where lyrics have been changed from the lyrics sheets to the songs.

Maybe they just thought another Bruce reference would be cool!

Brian: "This song is about New Brunswick. The joke is that ‘The very best dancers around’ is Lifetime. You get it?"

Yeah it's good. Fast melodic hardcore with emocore influences.

It's a tribute, but it's not exactly dancing music so I think the joke is about that.
