"It's just about how hard it is for kids to grow up today. They're
inundated with the media and images and cliques they try to have to fit
into. Two images that are really strong for me lyrically are ordinary's
just not good enough today,' and when I think of kids today, I would
never think of a group of eight year olds going out to a baseball park
and throwing the ball around. It doesn't happen any more. I have a nine
year old brother; he's either inside playing Nintendo or staying up
late on a school night watching Beavis & Butt-Head. And you juxtapose
that against the old Superman, on the black and white series. He was a
real hero, good values, strong willed, a gentleman, but I think Beavis
& Butt-Head wins today." (Talking about the song "Superman's Dead" from
the album "Clumsy")
