You can’t be in the public eye without making mistakes and having some regrets and having people analyze everything you do.
Chasing dragons with plastic swords, Jack Off Jimmy everybody wants more.
I dress up with a conscience when I think you’ll be watching. I say all the right things, I don’t know what I mean.
Watch our children while they kill each other with guns they bought at Wal-Mart.
We can’t be certain who the villains are cuz everyone’s so pretty, but the after party’s sure to be the wing-ding as it moves into your city.
Lie to me, I promise to believe. Lie to me, but please don’t leave.
It’s just a question of eliminating obstacles.
I’m still the king of me.
If you’d like to reach me, leave me alone.
I thrive on being on the road, waking up in a different place every day and having my life revolve around music. When you walk out in front of 300,000 people and pull it off, it validates you.
As you get older, you have your tribe of women that you grow and age gracefully with and you share wisdom with. That’s your clan. That’s your family. That’s your strength.
Life’s so full that you just take it one day at a time.
Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread, and serve you French toast again. Okay, I still get stoned.
So what if right now everything is wrong?
I snore. I’ve had two or three people complain about it.
As both a musician and a former teacher, I feel that music is as important to kids as reading and writing.
Then not everything is gonna be the way you think it oughta be. It seems like everytime I try to make it right, it all comes down on me. Please say honestly you won’t give up on me, and I shall believe.
I’m standing in the desert, waiting for my ship to come in.
Being diagnosed with a possibly life-threatening disease is so jarring and for me to know that God had me in his hands, I never felt alone.
I have a healthy cynicism, but not anger.
