I Ache For The Touch Of Your

The People Who Came To Hear Me Perform Or To Buy My Records Were Not The Type Who Would Be Offended [by The Song 'the Vatican Rag']. But I Gather That There Were Other People Who Were Offended.

I'm Not Tempted To Write A Song About George W.bush. I Couldn't Figure Out What Sort Of Song I Would Write. That's The Problem: I Don't Want To Satirise George Bush And His Puppeteers, I Want To Vaporise Them. And That's Not Funny.

I Don't Have The Temperament Of A Performer, And I Certainly Couldn't Do It Every Night.

Apart From That Mrs Lincoln, How Did You Enjoy The Play?

My Last Public Performance For Money Was In 1967. For Free, It Was 1972, With The Exception Of Two Little One-shot, One-song Things. But That's Just For Friends, Out Of Friendship For The People Involved, And Also Because It Was Fun.
