"We Suck Young Blood"
Lyrics, Hail to the Thief (2003)

“It's like a supply and demand thing. It's like 'Well, this is what they want me to do, this is what they want to hear. So I'll do more of this, cuz this is great… and they love me.' Suddenly people start giving you money as well. So then you've got money and you get used to this lifestyle. And you don't wanna take any risks 'cause they've got you by the balls, and you've got all these little things that you've bought, or you're attached to. And you start spending all this money… And that's how they get ya!”

Lyrics, The Eraser (2006)

“It's basically [about] having to make a decision whether to do nothing or try to engage with it in some way, knowing that it's flawed.

And yeah, that stresses me out, because I am a hypocrite. As we all are.”

“When you were here before,
Couldn't look you in the eye.
You're just like an angel,
Your skin makes me cry.
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world.

You're so fuckin' specialBut I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here
I don't belong here”
