I think that, y'know, they seem to really love music, which means they'll stick with it. I think that Hanson could be really good in a few years, actually!
Be kind to me, or treat me mean I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine
I still don't know what Episcopalian means
If there was a better way to go then it would find me I can't help it, the road just rolls out behind me Be kind to me, or treat me mean I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine
And if I'm being honest, I don't think I have an ex-boyfriend who would have something mean to say about me.
I mean to prove I mean to move in my own way/ And say I've been getting along/ For long before you came into the play.
You got your game, made your shot, and you got away With a lot, but I'm not turned on So put away that meat you're selling.
My biggest inspiration has been romantic relationships, because there's something about the way that you are in a relationship that is reflective of your relationship with the world.
I got my feet on the ground and I don't go to sleep to dream, you got your head in the clouds you're not at all what you seem.
Nobody sees when you are lying in your bedand I want to crawl in with youbut I cry instead
Now that my album is finally finished, I am very, very excited to have people hear what we did. I am so proud of it, and all of us who worked on it.
I wrote 'Criminal' in 45 minutes when everyone else went to lunch because I had to have a hit. I can force myself to do the work, but only if someone is right up behind me.
I wasn't very ambitious as a child. I'm still not.
I walk my dog at dawn because I don't like people to be around.
