Rebirth of the Flesh = Zombie thing?

The creepy organ part kicks in that a bit like horror movie thing. Obviously the lyrics aren't about zombies here, but do you think he was thinking vaguely of horror, maybe zombie movies with the organ bit?

Zombies? lol
Though I can see some similarity to that spooky movies sound

Cant believe my purple psychedelic pimp slap pimp2

He does give what is an uber Christian term a horror vibe in this track... "Rebirth of the flesh... It's all over you." Cue alarming horn...

There are some of jokes I've heard about Christ turning into a zombie to get out of that tomb. But I don't think Prince meant it that way.

I thought it was about how you eat corn and then you poop and it's pretty much just corn again.

I admit it's a random topic, but this I did not expect.

Sadly, it's the first thing that came to mind. I have issues.
