I'm not walking around the stage, I'm not moving.

I heard Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis, and that was it. I didn't ever want to be anything else. I just started banging away and semi-studied classical music at the Royal Academy of Music but sort of half-heartedly.

Oh teacher, I need you like a little child, you got something in you to drive a school boy wild.

Someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear, you almost had your hooks in me, didn't you dear?

I get bombed for breakfast in the morning, I get bombed for dinner.

I used to get my money at the end of the week, buy my mum something, or buy a record, and that was it.

I love the idea of the teachings of Jesus Christ and the beautiful stories about it, which I loved in Sunday school and I collected all the little stickers and put them in my book. But the reality is that organised religion doesn't seem to work. It turns people into hateful lemmings and it's not really compassionate.
