My High-school Dream Was To Be In

I Don't Write Down My Experiences, But I Have A Very Decent Memory. I Have Tons Of Books In Which I Write Down Phrases As They Occur To Me. That's How I Write Songs. I'll Need A Line And I'll Go Through The Books And Find It, The Right Rhyme And Everything.

So Many Times I Thought To Myself, Man, I Never Want To Do Drugs Again. But I Would Never Sacrifice Any Experience I've Ever Had On Them, And I Am Not Remorseful That I've Done Them. I Would Like To Get More And More Away From Drugs.

I Was Hanging Out With Jonathan Richman Last Night.

It Is Hard, Though, 'cos Record Labels Love To Boss You Around. I Won't Let Them Do That Anymore.

My High-school Dream Was To Be In A Band, Pay My Rent And Eat - And I've Been Able To Do That For 20 Years. So I'm Completely Content.
