Usually when I write a song, I'll write the music and then kind of fit some words to it.
I write about the things I feel strongly about.

Comedians are really writers who don't have pens and pencils about them, but they riff.
I write books to find out about things.
I write songs about fat girls and about men who run off to Mexico.
When I write something, every word of it is meant. I can't say it enough.
I guess what people forget sometimes is that when I write songs, I write them sometimes in about 20 minutes.
