We Want Prince We Want Prince

I knew this dude, he was very cool
He used 2 rule until he went 2 school
Not a normal school that breeds a fool
But the one that teaches men aren't fit 2 rule

That's when he took his pearly crown
He raised it up and spun it 'round
And tossed into the deep blue underground
No longer lead by the ways of men
He looked 4 the kingdom deep within
That's when the drums in his head began 2 pound

Don't let nobody bring U down
Accurate knowledge of Christ and the Father
Will bring the everlasting now
Join the party, make a sound
Share the truth, preach the good news
Don't let nobody bring U down
The everlasting now

We Want Prince We Want Prince









We Want Prince We Want Prince

Now turn the page, at an early age
This brotha on stage, he was all the rage
He taught an integrated world 2 sing
The color U are don't mean a thing
Everybody's a star all the everyday people sang

He changed the funk, put it in a bag
Then he changed the colors of the flag
But U can't teach a dog new tricks if the tail don't wag
Don't no matter how much money U made
All the cars U got and all the women U laid
If U mess with the flag, 2 them U're still a spade

We Want Prince We Want Prince











All right
Band!

See this girl in her make-believe world
Plastic boobs and clip-on curls
'Round the pole see her big butt twirl
Oh, these are the dreams that do unfurl
Never everlasting

Turn it up!

Don't let nobody bring U down
The everlasting now (We want Prince)
Now

Now watch that girl in her make-believe world
Plastic boobs and clip-on curls
'Round the pole see her big butt twirl
Electric beaches, skin do bake
Vanilla fudge and wedding cake
If U should die before U wake
U got any last requests 2 make?

"U know, this is funky but I just wish he'd play like he used 2
Old scragglyhead sum-a..."

Ironically, I just watched this last night again.

I'm still wondering what the One Nite Alone cover has to do with it, though.

great pics, thank U OF4S.

Prince is LOVING GORGEOUS AND SEXY ALWAYS i LOVE Prince

Nice Pictures, I missed that show.

"The Everlasting Now," is a great song. I really do get all movie minded when I think of "The Rainbow Children." This Song is the End of the movie in my mind, even though the cd end with, "Last December."

Even if this was never a Prince Movie...Prince did a great job on the story line and putting the music together, and the visuals that I get when listening to this album, make me feel like having a drink with Steven Spielberg.

I flew in to see this taping the nite before the show and waited in line with some real cool people, Bobby made sure everyone got tickets somehow. After the show, there was a small party for Sheila,was her birthday I think. It was soooo cool. People dancin on tables, we taught Reneto how to dance, shoot Prince was even movin people out the way to watch those dancin on the tables.
very good to be with friends at that time
