This list is an attempt to document every song written by Rivers Cuomo in chronological order, including songs for Weezer, as well as pre-Weezer bands, solo demos, collaborations with other artists, and other side-projects. For lists of songs recorded by Weezer or various side projects, please see these links.
If a song has more than one RC# number, this means that the number differs between the two available versions of the Catalog o' Riffs. In some cases, the numbering system would start back from 1, likely to indicate different eras of songwriting.
