I just hate to be in one corner. I hate to be put as only a guitar player, or either only as a songwriter, or only as a tap dancer. I like to move around.

Imagination is the key to my lyrics. The rest is painted with a little science fiction.

There'll be no smoking in the gas chamber.

Butterflies and zebras And moonbeams and fairy tales That's all she ever thinks about Riding with the wind.

You have to use fantasy to show different sides to reality. That's how it can bend.

I was trying to do too many things at the same time, which is my nature. But I was enjoying it, and I still do enjoy it.

I'm the one that's got to die when it's time for me to die, so let me live my life the way I want to.
