I've often written about places that are totally different from anything I know. Sometimes they turn out better.

The radio is blastin', someone's knockin' at the door. I'm lookin' at my girlfriend, she's passed out on the floor.

He got drunk last night, kicked Mama down the stairs. But I'm alright, so I don't care.

I like the performing. And interviews, even. And the stuff that's not sitting in a room by yourself with empty paper. But I never loved writing, to tell you the truth.

I've worked with a band, and it's nice to have someone to travel around with, but I didn't like it as well on stage.

I'm dreaming of a white president. Just like the ones we've always had. A real live white man. Who knows the score, how to handle money or start a war. Wouldn't even have to tell me what we were fighting for. He'd be the right man, if he were a white man.

Most of my songs are about insensitivity of some kind.
