From "Controversy"

"Do You Get High...Does Your Daddy Cry?"

I love that line! It is so funny!

Funny, I find it pretty serious. neutral


I think he makes a great point with these lyrics.

Like really we've all got mums and dads no matter how old and tough we think we are. Smoking and taking drugs etc...
Shut up already, damn.

Good one. I'm going to have to use that tomorrow lol! Erm.. one question, which song's it from?

"with you".



Hey my first Prince track I ever heard.

I started a thread for this track and I didn't think anyone liked it!

I love those lyrics...

And also..

"I've held your hand so many times. But I still get the feeling I felt the very first time.."


Wow that's Prince at his best. The song sounds completely unfinished which is why I love it even more.

Wow and more Wow!!
Shut up already, damn.

For some odd reason I like this:

"Yellow Smiley offers me X
Like he's drinking seven up
I would rather drink 6 razor blades
Razor blades from a paper cup
He can't understand, I say 2 tough
It's just that I've seen the future
And boy it's rough.."
"New Power slide...."

I don't wanna be a poet cuz I don't wanna blow it
I don't care 2 win awards
All I wanna do is dance, play music, sez, romance
and try my best 2 never get bored.


Dorothy was a waitress on the promenade...she worked the night shift
Dishwater blonde, tall amd fine...she got a lot of tips.


No one plays the clarinet the way u play my heart
I come a thousand different ways before I even start...you're so nice!


Ahhh...I could go on forever!


MY GIRL'S GONE AND SHE DON'T CARE AT ALL
AND IF SHE DID--SO WHAT!!! COME ON BABY, LET'S BALL!!!!!

after a month of just being alone he said i wonder what LA's thinking
the streets he roamed in search of a poem, amongst the wild and drinking


until the end of time, i'll be there for you
you own my heart and mind, i truley adore you



everybody needs stimulation, mine just happens to be all over town

it's an easymoney occupation, first class psychaitry

contradictory to rumor, gigolos get lonely too
I love your face, your smile, your eyes,
Damn- I'm good at telling lies!

I've always loved:

"I...how you say...I wonder you"

My favorite that I don't think he actually says is:

"Ah muthafucka she's a brotherfucker can't you understand"

The best line for the melody/lyrical combination:

"But it was Saturday night I guess that makes it all right"

and the only way to beat the prenup is to prove that it doesn't meet the legal criteria required for the state in which the divorce is issued. wink

There are way too many to single out one, but you guys have picked some goodies. I'll add some to this glorious lot.

Excuse me but I need a mouth like yours to help me forget the girl that just walked out my door.

My pants were wet, they came off but she didn't see the movie cuz she hadn't read the book first. Instead she pretended she was blind - an afflication brought on by a witch's curse. (This makes me hot).

Soaked in banana cologne, no wonder you're all alone. It's written all over your face, you're just rock hard in a funky place. (The innuendo and humor in that lyric is priceless.)

The song was a year long and had been playing four months when he walked into the place.

When 2 R N Luv falling leaves will appear to them like slow motion rain.

This is for politicians who are bored and believe in war.
This is for Yosemite Sam and tourists at Disneyland. (That shit is classic!!!)

Are you ready for the touch that makes you go insane from chest to lips to cheek to mane. I'll pull your hair you'll feel no pain. (I love having my hair pulled and the thought of Prince doing it...)

If he poured his heart into a glass and offered it like wine she could drink and be back in time for the morning papers.

Sometimes I want to die and come back as one of your tears.

Annie Christian Annie Christ until you're crucified, I live my life in taxi cabs.

I'm not a human I'm a dove, I'm your conscience I am love...

Dream if you can a courtyard - an ocean of violets in bloom - animals strike curious poses they feel the heat, the heat between me and you.

I'm testing positive for the funk. I'd gladly pee in anyone's cup.

You know the Kama Sutra I can rewrite it in half as many words.

Forces from the sky say rely on your best friend to pull you through. Even if I wanted to I could really truly cuz my only friend is you.

How do you know if I'm even in the right key if you make me stop before I start?

Thinking about U's driving me crazy. My friends all say it's just a phase, but every day is a yellow day. I'm blinded by the daisies in your yard

This entire verse...
I gave my love, I gave my life, I gave my body and mind
We were inseparable. I guess I gave u all of my time
And now u plead insanity and u don't even know the score
Why can't u learn 2 play the game?
Baby, don't u know that u need more?

So what is the answer to the question of you?

Ok I need to stop and do some real work. I could be here all day. There are so many that I haven't even mentioned. His lyrics have always been one of the many highlights of his music to me. They are sexy, humorous, thoughtful, cryptic, beautiful.
