Insect politics, indifferent universe. Bang your head against the wall, but apathy is worse.
Oh beautiful for spacious skies, but now those skies are threatening. They're beating plowshares into swords for this tired old man we elected king.
Sharper than a serpents tongue, tighter than a bongo drum, quicker than a one night stand, slicker than a mambo band.
I've been trying to get down to the heart of the matter but my will gets weak and my thoughts seem to scatter but I think it's about forgiveness... forgiveness, even if you don't love me anymore.
There are no facts, there is no truth, just data to be manipulated.
An angry man can only get so far until he reconciles the way he thinks.
Arm chair warriors often fail.
I said, baby, do you have no shame? She just looked at me, uncomprehendingly, like cows at a passing train.
I have a bad back partially from playing the drums and singing. I used to have to hold my body in such a position that my spine got out of alignment.
I remember a time when things were a lot more fun around here, when good was good and evil was evil, before things got fuzzy.
The government bugged the men's room in the local disco lounge.
What the head makes cloudy the heart makes clear

There is not wrong, there is no right, and I will sleep very well tonight.
