- Notes
- "Polkarama!" was used as the set opener for Yankovic's 2007-08 Straight Outta Lynwood tour.
- Yankovic initially wanted to include a verse of "Photograph" by Nickelback, and even got the band's permission. However since he was unable "to find a way to incorporate the song into 'Polkarama' where it didn't sound wedged in or tacked on", Yankovic decided not to use it, but still thanked Nickelback in the liner notes for the album.
