Not that this is a bad record. It’s just that it gets the slightest bit dull and workmanlike. I’m afraid the title of the first track sums it up: ‘Spirit Got Lost’.[5] Track listing[edit]Australian edition[edit]Creatures of LeisureTitleWriter(s)1.“Spirit Got Lost”Reg Mombassa, Andrew ‘Greedy’ Smith[6]2:592.“Float Away”Reg Mombassa[6]2:433.“Brain Brain”Peter O’Doherty[6]4:374.“Bitter to Swallow”Andrew Smith[6]3:465.“Close Again”Peter O’Doherty[6]2:576.“Space to Let”Martin Plaza[6]2:477.“Not Enough” (MC \/ CD only track not included on LP release)Martin Plaza, Reg Mombassa[6]2:528.“Drinking of Her Lips”Reg Mombassa[6]3:289.“Fiona”Andrew Smith[6]3:2810.“Nothing’s Going Right Today”Martin Plaza[6]3:2011.“Red to Green”Peter O’Doherty, Victoria Campbell[6]3:2512.“Country in the Concrete”Reg Mombassa[6]3:2513.“Let’s Not Get Sentimental” (Track timing includes unlisted track, below.)Martin Plaza[6]6:4914.“Business & Pleasure” (Unlisted track.
