I write songs about fat girls and about men who run off to Mexico.
I won't get into it any more than to say that there are parts of me in all the songs that I write.
I actually hate lyrics, and I hate it when they're quoted in reviews. I don't think they matter that much; it's the sounds of words - not the words - that I look for.
There is this assumption that much of what I write is about my life, and that simply is not true.
I write plays about things that I can't resolve in my mind. I try to root things out.
Honestly, most of the stuff I made for 'TV on the Radio,' I write in the studio.
It's actually deeply satisfying to write a story out in full.
Three hours a day will produce as much as a man ought to write.
I actually think that's true, that we kind of create our own hell.
