Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV

It ( In My Life ) was the first song that I wrote that was really, consciously about my life.... up until then, it had been all glib and throwaway.

My father and mother split and I never saw my father until I was 20, nor did I see much more of my mother.

Going to America increased the build up on me, especially as the war was going on there. In a way we'd turned out to be a Trojan horse. The 'Fab Four' moved right to the top and then sang about drugs and sex and then I got into more and more heavy stuff and that's when they started dropping us.

Imagine there's no varmints. It isn't hard to do.

I'll be a good boy, please make me well. I promise you anything, get me out of this hell. Cold turkey has got me on the run.

You don't need anybody to tell you who you are or what you are. You are what you are!
