HOw cool is "Style"?

I think would have made a good single. One of those album cuts that make Emancipation one of his best.

Style is not a logo that sticks to ones ass, style is a 2nd cousin to class.

i saw a guy today wearing a Nike Ski jacket (the type that makes you look like michelin man, Hell, it was 80c + in England today, that line flew through my mind looking at that dickhead!)

i used to like the song, but thought that it went on too long. now i get can't enough of it. i love the lyrics.



(Style) Style, uh!
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Style, dig it
(Style) Style, come on
Uh, style
Style is not something that comes in a bottle
Style is more like Jackie O. when she was doin' Aristotle
Style is not a logo that sticks 2 the roof of one's ass
Style is like a second cousin 2 class

U got it! - Style, come on
U got it! - Style, say what?
U got it! - Style, come on
U got it! - Style, check it

Style ain't sittin' court side with the owner of the team
Style is owning the court and charging 'em all a fee
Style is not lusting after someone because they're cool
Style is loving yourself 'til everyone else does 2

U got it! - Style, come on
U got it! - Style, maybe
U got it! - Style, well well
U got it! - Style

Bridge:
Style don't get drunk on a Saturday night
Try 2 dress up every Sunday mornin' bright
Style don't get married then break the vow in a year
Style is keepin' a promise
Raise your hand y'all if U hear me

(Style) {x2}

Style is not biting style when U can't find the funk
Style is the face U make on a Michael Jordon dunk
Style ain't the jeep U bought when U know your broke ass got bills
Style is lettin' your lover drive while U talk on the phone and chill

U got it! - Style
U got it! - Style, maybe
U got it! - Style, come on
U got it! - Style

Bridge:
Style is a gold-tooth smile with an attitude
Style is a peaceful wild postin' the rude
Style is growing your own food
Style is a non-violent march
Style is an accurate account of what's inside every heart (Style)

Style is not a lie
Style is a man that cries
Style is the glow in a pregnant woman's eyes

(Style) {x4}

U got it! - Style, come on
U got it! - Style, do that, do that
U got it! - Style, got it?
U got it! - Style, mad, come on

(Style) U got it! - Yeah
(Style) U got it!
Style is a peaceful wild y'all
(Style) U got it! - Style
(Style) U got it!
Style is not thinking about style
So let me stop (Style)

(Style) {repeats in BG}
It's nice man
What U call that?
Style, I like that
It's about me?
(Keep, keep, keepin' on, people gotta keep, keep, keepin' on)
Right on (U got it!)
I ain't got no job, but I got style
Style, yeah

(Style) U got it!
Oh yeah
Hang on, hang on...

Style is buying your moms a house
Style is a clean mouth
Style is puppy breath
Style is no fear of death
Style is Ali's jab
Style is hailing a cab (Style)
Then U know, givin' 'em the finger when they pass your ass!

(Style) (U got it!) Bonnie, Bonnie
(Style) (U got it!) Oh yeah
(Style) Shirley, shake your ass, Shirley
(Sytle) Shirley, Shirley, I love U, Shirley


(Style) (U got it!) {repeat in BG)
Style is Mayte in the shower
Style is a soul new power
Style is when all black men are free
Style is U and me


(U got it!) {x3}

I personally love that song, Prince has a great sense of humor and it's very apparent in "Style" it's fun and funky at the same time.

Musically it's tight. Lyrically it has it's moments, like "you know, givin' them the finger when they pass your ass" and conjuring up images of "Mayte in the shower"; excuse me one moment...jerkoff... Sorry I had to answer the phone.

Really the one line I don't like from the song is "puppy breath". The thought of a slobbering dog, no matter how big or small, as an example of style just doesn't do it for me.
