It's like people call me a rock star or this or that. And I go, 'Don't call me that. I don't think of myself in those terms. If you have to call me anything, call me a chameleon.
I'm asthmatic. I was a lot bigger back then, and I still get winded on stage today. But I've learned how to pace it now. I have musical breaks in there.
Maybe I'm damned if I do, but with every other beat I got left in my heart, you know I'd rather be damned with you.
I'm an actor. I started as an actor. I started on Broadway doing 'Hair' and Shakespeare in the Park.
Just ask anybody who is getting old - everything starts hurting. For me, it's my shoulders, thumbs, knees and feet.
My gigs are built on improvisation: I go out there and I'm like the Energizer bunny.
As most people know, I am a vampire, so I have no reflection. Every day, I paste a picture of someone else on the mirror.
My life's far too complicated to be summed up in one song. It would take 20 just to represent one single day.

What about your school? It's defective, it's a pack of useless lies.
A wasted youth is better by far than a wise and productive old age.
If you push me, I'll shove, I'm masculine. When she wants to play rough, I'm masculine.
You've been cold to me so long, I'm crying icicles instead of tears.
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you.
