I eat cold eels and think distant thoughts.

Plexi, plexi, bend don't shatter. Once you're broken, shape won't matter.

When you move like a jellyfish, rhythm is nothing. You go with the flow. You don't stop.

My friend told me later he got the chicken pox. I told him I caught politics and never got over it.

I finish a lot of lyrics while I'm in the water and it's always pretty constructive for me to get out in the water. I'm not actually writing the words down, but I have time to think about words, and doing a lot of surfing usually gives me a little space and peace of mind to finish things up.

It's always better when we're together, somewhere in between together.

I can never tell what's going to end up being on an album until it's all finished. I'm reading the news everyday, and sometimes I just have to be away from it. And that ends up writing the songs for me a little bit.
