Long a treasured track among bootleggers, "Evil Little Boys" was, in the opinion of some fans, done an injustice by not only its placement as a b-side but also by the fragmented, distant production work by Eno, a major contrast to more bottom-heavy, driven live versions, even on the Science Tour. By now, Plaastik was really wearing down its backlog of tracks, and it's possible this didn't make the cut simply because it was a very old song. Early tracklists for the PROJECTION CONSISTENCY compilation included this recording, but that plan was scrapped.
No no no
Keep it away
We can't have it here
The evil little boys
They rip off your clothes
And the ritual begins
They're not
They're not allowed
You don't want the trouble
The evil little boys
Nothing but trouble
I touched them once
You'll never forget
Never again
Never forget
