Lyrics on original album version of "Come" What is being said during this verse?
____bug my phones to say ______ ? I don't think so, maybe you should come with me Maybe you should wrap your legs around my neck for a while We'll see if I can make you smile I do my very best to get you in the mood (x2) Cry for me to ____________________ ? _______ for really getting rude
For the life of me, I can't make it out. [Edited 8/13/10 15:32pm] | |

This can't be legit. The mislead line might be right, but the last line isn't. You can totally hear him pronounce the word "rude" in the last line. Mind you, I don't remember when DTT did this version of come, but I think it was before the full version was released in perfect quality like on Dawn 4.1. | |

I have a great quality version of that song, and it was certainly before that boot you're referring to. However, it was done before I was ever part of the team. | |

OKAY sassafras, but my point is that I'm sure the DTT did it before the complete version of the song was released. As I recall, T's edited/chopped up/tagged version of the original album version of Come did NOT include this part and the only version we had as fans was a copy played over the PA at Glam Slam.
THUS, now that WE HAVE a CLEAR AND COMPLETE version of the SONG (living on both your boot and THAT BOOT IM REFERRING TO), you can hear the lyrics better. Real =/= rude. I'm curious as to what the verse really says. | |

I hear the last line as "The time hangs 4 me 2 get rude", but I'll take DTTs word for the other two lines in question. "Cry 4 little titty" sounds right, but I don't get it. "Sticks and stones will bug my phones and say that I mislead" is probably right, but I can't hear those exact words.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

"The time hangs for me to get rude" sounds closer to what it should be.
Listen again a few times. What we're thinking sounds like "for me 2" could also be "really" if you listen to it. I don't get the titty thing either, but I also didn't get the "tallywhacker suckin" thing at first either. | |

It's actually "(Come), the time has, 4 me 2 get rude"

YES! This sounds perfect to my ears. You can specifically hear him annunciate "has" and "get rude".
This has perplexed me for years. | |

The line before that isn't right either. I'm at work right now , so can't double check, but I'm pretty sure that line ends with the word "food" (something like "eating you just like food")

That makes sense, too.
Mislead, me. While, smile. Mood, mood, ____, rude.
What an awesome track. | |

I'm also pretty sure he doesn't say "get U in the mood" twice.
One those lines is different, like "get u in the nude" or something.
I'll have to have a listen to it when I get home to check. | |

It might be time to revisit this song and redo the lyrics. | |

Boris, as always... you da man.
I'm still going with hearing "titty" for my own enjoyment. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |
