People can change anything they want to, and that means everything in the world.

For me the music is a vehicle for my lyrics. It's a chance to get some really good words across.

When I started, they told me I only needed 3 chords and the truth... It turned out I could manage with 2 and some vague ideas.

If you're allowed to make your mistakes, I think you should. But people don't really like hearing you admit them. Although I'd never wanted to dump on the musicians that were involved in that... Because it was not their fault.

Punk rock isn't something you grow out of Punk rock is an attitude, and the essence of that attitude is 'give us some truth'

I have a weird life because I live on songwriting royalties, which are a strange income. Sometimes it rains, sometimes it doesn't.

Don't write slogans, write truths.
