I'm Not The Type To Turn To

As John Adams Said, All Democracies Will Eventually Self-destruct. We Seem To Be Doing It Very Quickly.

Yeah, I Was In The Phase For The Last Ten Years Or So Where Every Record I Made I Said Ok, That's The Last One, I Don't Want To Record Anymore, I Don't Want To Do This Any More, I Don't Want To Have A Public Life.

I Have Learned To Be Steady In My Course Of Love, Or Fear, Or Loneliness, Rather Than Impulsive In Its Wasting, Either Lyrically Or Emotionally.

On The Plane, An Eight-year-old With An Excess Of Testosterone Keeps Running Across My Feet. Finally I Grab Him By His T-shirt And Say, Very Sweetly, 'listen, Darling, If You Don't Stop Trampling Me I'm Going To Make You Sit On My Lap While I Tell You My Entire Life Story. Including A Lot Of Details About Drug Rehab And My Divorce.' He Goes Back To His Seat.

Loss Is The Great Unifier, The Terrible Club To Which We All Eventually Belong.
