play limits needs
You know what, the drummer is my manager. He's busy. And I'm busy. I don't need the dough, though. But having said that, there's a limit to how much bad music I wanna play. I did it when I was young, and some of the music was OK, but it wasn't great.

recovery thinking people
In the '70s, everybody thought drugs were just good times. People didn't really know about drug addiction, or that such a thing existed. When I grew up in the '70s I thought you had to take drugs. It was almost like I didn't think you had a choice.
queens kings thinking
The king of the jailhouse and the queen of the road think sharing the burden will lighten the load.
should
I suppose I should be happy to be misread; better be that than some of the other things I have become.
perspective lost translate
Something gets lost when you translate. It's hard to keep straight. Perspective is every thing.
