Parents Don't Understand Kids And Kids Don't

I Don't Think Any Of Us Felt Like, "oh, We Need To Put Joke Songs On The Record." If We Found Something Funny, We Would Record It, And If We Wanted To, We'd Put It On The Record. It's Not Really Something We Spent Too Much Time Agonizing Over.

Mom's Dad Was In The Army, Stormed The Beach At Normandy, Fought Through The French Hedgerows, The Battle Of The Ardennes, The Battle Of The Bulge, And Liberated Concentration Camps At The End Of The War.

There Was A Great Push And Pull Of What Blink-128 Should Sound Like All The Time. Travis Barker Comes From A Different Background Than I Do, And Tom Delonge Comes From A Different Background Than Either Of Us In Terms Of What We Write And What We Think A Song Should Be. Tom Pushes Me Out Of A Box That I Put Myself In.

Maybe People Would Be Surprised To Know That I Listen To Old Neil Diamond Albums From Time To Time. The Man Rocks. I Defy Anyone To Prove Me Wrong.

Parents Don't Understand Kids And Kids Don't Understand Parents. My Parents Were Divorced When I Was Really Young And I Went To Live With My Dad.
