I write a new verse of "We Didn't Start the Fire" every few years.
Right now, I'm up to --
"A-Rod, Ipod, Jacko's Free, There's No God.'"
When people tell me they love the song "Just the Way You Are,"
I tell them I wrote it about a transvestite hooker I picked up on
night in the village.
Sure, it's not true, but it never fails to ruin the song for them.
1982, I was riding my motorcycle when a car ran into me.
it really opened my eyes.
I realized -- of course, car accidents.
Elton John and I became really good friends.
I don't mean "good friends" in that sense.
I just mean we slept together.
