I wouldn't consider myself a songwriter at all. Maybe I piece together a certain little thing here and there, but songwriters are people who do this with sheet music.

No race or civilization of people are just going to say, "Oh, instead of using real meat, let's just mash up a bunch of lymph nodes and put a bunch of weird stuff in it and pack it up in plastic cans and plastic bins, and let's eat that way. That'll be great." People don't choose that.

I don't think music is an art any more than cooking food is an art.

Working in factories and things like that, it just puts a little hair on your chest.

I feel like there's the people's music, and there's corporate music.

Essentially any history we have is just a history of aristocrats. We don't have any history of people.

I don't associate much with anybody. I'm not big on all the teachings and groups and being a part of something, I guess.
