But if you're doing something, show up everyday, and something good might happen - it's not going to happen if you don't show up.

I don't remember ever having writer's block. If I sit in there for four hours, I'll usually have something.

When I say something's going to happen, it's going to happen.

My music has a high irritation factor. I've always tried to say something. Eccentric lyrics about eccentric people. Often it was a joke. But I would plead guilty on the grounds that I prefer eccentricity to the bland.

I started recording because I was always complaining about the records that I was getting of my songs. At least if I did them and messed them up, I wouldn't have anyone else to blame.

You can't help but be scrutinized, so I might as well be doing something while I'm being scrutinized.
