laughing shining gold
Most orgies that you go to, I have found, most of it is sad. All that wildness, all those laughs were like the shining silver and gold paper on packages, but there was nothing inside.

I don't have many easy songs.

Everything Michael Jackson does on stage is exactly right.

Being in public with May and the children was too heavy. I was irreversibly tuned in to everyone around us.
sick laughing lines
There are lines that I know are going to get a belly laugh, but after a few shows I get sick of hearing myself say them so I drop them.

To appear on the stage drunk, to have them leave there and remember me making drunken mistakes, that was death.
years stills knows
You can be in this business 50 years and still not know anything about it.
shaving lovers grows
When you lose a lover it's like getting a bad haircut. It grows back in time.
