If You're Funky, Say His Name! My Song For Prince

Like probably many on here, I felt like a piece of me was taken away when Prince died. As part of my healing process, I wrote a song to pay tribute to Prince. I called it "Prince (If You're Funky, Say His Name)" but that got rejected by iTunes & Amazon because it had Prince's name in the title, so I renamed it to just "If You're Funky, Say His Name". I wanted to share with fellow Prince fans. You can check it out here: https://soundcloud.com/us...y-his-name

Here are the lyrics:

If You're Funky, Say His Name

Nobody but Prince

Could serve up the funk

Compared to a Prince song

Well, this song is just funky-junk

Nobody but Prince

Had an atti-FUNKIN-tude

He wished there was no black and white

He wished there were no rules

Let's go crazy

Everybody go insane

All the Rainbow Children

Come dance in the Purple Rain

And if you're funky, say his name...

PRINCE!

Let's go, let's go crazy

PRINCE!

Let's go...insane

PRINCE!

And if you are funky

PRINCE!

Then say, then say his name

PRINCE!

Let's go, let's go crazy

PRINCE!

Let's go...insane

PRINCE!

And if you are funky

PRINCE!

Then say, then say his name

Everybody say his name

And play the game

Nobody but Prince

Could serve up the funk

Compared to a Prince song

Well, this song is just funky-junk

Nobody but Prince

Had an atti-FUNKIN-tude

He wished there was no black and white

He wished there were no rules

Let's go crazy

Everybody go insane

All the Rainbow Children

Come dance in the Purple Rain

And if you're funky, say his name...

PRINCE!

Let's go, let's go crazy

PRINCE!

Let's go...insane

PRINCE!

And if you are funky

PRINCE!

Then say, then say his name

PRINCE!

Let's go, let's go crazy

PRINCE!

Let's go...insane

PRINCE!

And if you are funky

PRINCE!

Then say, then say his name

PRINCE!

Let's go, let's go crazy

PRINCE!

Let's go...insane

PRINCE!

And if you are funky

PRINCE!

Then say, then say his name

PRINCE!

Let's go, let's go crazy

PRINCE!

Let's go...insane

PRINCE!

And if you are funky

PRINCE!

Then say, then say his name

Everybody say his name

And play the game

(TALKING AFTER SONG ENDS)

Person 1: Well...it's too late to play the game now. The song's over.

Person 2: Whaaaat? It's never too late! (slaps Person 1)

Person 1: Ohhhh....
