spring is super in the supermarkets and the strawberries prance and glow never mind that they're all kinda tart and tasteless as strawberries go meanwhile wild things are not for sale anymore than they are for show so i'll be outside, in love with the kind of beauty it takes more than eyes to know

I sing sometimes for the war that I fight, 'Cause every tool is a weapon if you hold it right.

Subtract out the impact and the fall is all you get. So here's two beers to remember why and three more to forget.

Who says I like right angles? These are not my laws, these are not my rules.

I think I'm a very solitary person. To actually not be anonymous is a bit claustrophobic for me.

I try to laugh at whatever life brings.

People who are just starting out are always sort of coming to me for advice as the example of "independent girl," and lots of people ask, well, how did you get the booking agent or the national distribution or the tours? And I look at them like, "Good lord! Relax!" I mean, how I did it was to not care about it and to not even think about it for years and years. All I thought about was getting the next little gig in the little bar, and I get this sense that people want me to give them the secret formula or the magic trick to make it all happen.
