Black Francis on Being Inspired by the Bible lyrics

[Black Francis]
In the words of Kurt Cobain, "I never f*cking said that!" But, we have had some biblical references in some of the older material especially. I mean, ya know, all those hotels, all those Gideon's bibles there. All of hotels and motels. Except for Utah and Idaho, it more of a Mormon kinda thing.

And I guess we get some of the Buddhist writings down.

[Black Francis]
Some of the hipper hotels in the West Coast, right? You know, San Frantastic will have the Buddha stuff there.

[Joey Santiago]
Really? You're jokin'.

[Black Francis]
Japantown, yeah.

[Joey Santiago]
I never open drawers.
