Such A Human Waste, Your Eyes Without

My Dad Was One Of The Reasons I Got Into Rock And Roll, Because I Was Learning The Ropes Of His Business, Which Was Selling Powertools, And I Was Looking For A Way Out From Under His Heel. I Was Like, 'where's The Fun? Where's The Glamour?

We Want Flesh, Flesh For Fantasy.

Part Of The Punk Attitude Was That You Should Project Your Music Through Your Whole Body... Show Your Personality As Much As Possible.

When I Started Out, Everyone Seemed To Be Adopting These Names... Johnny Rotten, Sid Vicious. I Wasn't Really Rotten Or Vicious Or Nasty, So I Wanted Something A Bit More Funny - Yet Something That Seemed Real Rock 'n' Roll... Something That Acknowledged My Ambition.

My Hair Used To Be Real Long, And My Parents Were Encouraged When I Cut It. They Thought I Was Going 'straight,' But I Was Just Getting Weirder - At Least In Their Eyes. I Was Getting Into The Punk Thing.
