I want to take Justin Bieber for a month and just lock him up in a cage where we sit and make music. He's one of the most successful people in the world, but his music could be so much tighter.
I'm a really, really, smart, multi-talented almost-genius, who's very annoying.
The devil doesn't wear prada; I'm clearly in a -- white tee.
I sold my soul to the devil. Lucifer will have my soul.
I slipped myself some pink Xannies/And danced around the house in all-over print panties.
Wayne's cool. I ran into him at my hangout back home, and he's just cool. I actually have this beat that I want him on, but I was too scared to get it to Clancy to get to them, but Wayne's cool.

I don't like being put in a box. I just make music, you know?
