While I've got all my arms and legs and my eyes working at the same time, I've got to make as much stuff as I can.
I always come back to the gentler stuff like Simon & Garfunkel and the Fleet Foxes' first album - that's quite an odd one.
I didn't have any plan to go into comedy.
Most of the things I do are inspired by things that frightened me when I was young.
I think there's a chance that aliens might just see us as beef cattle, so that's us done. Whether they would inhabit us in that way is pretty fanciful because they'd probably just get from us what they could, and then I just see us as fast food.
