I Don't Write On Tour. There Is So Much To Do Day In And Day Out When You Are On The Road.

I Never Did Heroin, Because I Thought That Meant I Was Doing Heavy Drugs, Which Shows You The Insanity Of Doing Drugs. I Probably Should Have Done Heroin, Because I Understand Heroin Actually Makes You Feel Good. Cocaine Just Makes You Stupid.

I Wrote Songs All My Life, Where Anyone Wanted To Hear Them Or Not.
