Everything is permitted, everything is allowed, and all our Gods we have outwitted, we are running with the crowd.

My gigs are built on improvisation: I go out there and I'm like the Energizer bunny.

I'm asthmatic. I was a lot bigger back then, and I still get winded on stage today. But I've learned how to pace it now. I have musical breaks in there.

Maybe I'm damned if I do, but with every other beat I got left in my heart, you know I'd rather be damned with you.

I was cold and you were fire, and I never knew how the pyre could be burning on the edge of an ice field.

You know, people think I named myself Meat Loaf, even though I didn't. And they think anyone who would name himself Meat Loaf couldn't have an IQ higher than four.

Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you.
