What are your favorite Prince lyrics in some songs? I love how he phrases some things, uses metaphores, and makes you realise things!

In U got the look: "Closing time Ugly lights Everybody's inspected" Wow! I always feel self concious when they turn on those ugly lights at the club! It kinda takes you out of the fantasy world of the club.

In I wanna be your lover: "I wanna be the one that makes you come running!" That is so cool...you think he is saying one thing until he says that last word and it totally changes the whole meaning!

In kiss: "Act your age momma not your shoe size" This is so clever! How does he come up with these ideas?

He is so smart. Expecially with lanugauge. He has got some sucky lyrics that are way too obvious, graphic or just plain embarrasing but it's stuff like this tha is like WOW COOl!

well in the song "DO ME BABY' when he saids "take me baby kiss me all over. Play with my love. thats kinda funny and cute.

"so I went on down to The Holy River, called my girl and told her I had something to give her, I asked her to marry me and she said yes and cried"

must be something in the water they drink. why else would a woman treat a man so bad....

* "Ass like a fine cut diamond, mounted on two legs of stone. Ooh, the prison I could do some time in if I ever got that ass alone!"

* "Baby I'm sorry, but I didn't like the way you were so I had to make you mine."

* "I cannot lie, when my hand's on your thighs. I'm thinking isn't it a miracle that life comes from inside."

* "You let all my friends come over and eat. You were so strange, you didn't have the decency to change the sheets." Clever as hell.

* "They know this is serious -- I ain't fuuckin' just for kicks! "

* "Let's kiss with one synonymous notion that nothing's forbidden and nothing's taboo when the 2 r in love." Sweet!


* "Do you dream in double you's?"

* "Spirits come, spirits go, some stick around for the aftershow."

* "Built like she was, SHE HAD THE NERVES TO ASK ME if I planned to do her any harm."

* "Get off me punk, you ain't sexee!"


* "Will you accept my tears to pay the fare?"

* "Do I believe in God? Do I believe in Me? Some people wanna die so they can be free" Damn.


* "Where I come from WE DON'T GIVE A DAMN!, we do whatever we please ..."

* "Instead of askin' him how much of your time is left, ask him how much of your mind, baby."



* "And if you ain't busy for the next 7 years..." What flirt says stuff like that? That's cool, man.


* " You think I'm crazy? You're probably right, but I'M GONNA HAVE FUN EVERY MOTHERFUCKIN' NIGHT."



* "If a man is considered guilty for what goes on in his mind, then give me the Electric Chair for all my future crimes." I swear they based Minority Report on this.

this is hard...but the first song that came 2 mind was eye wonder... great song there!

I never noticed the sexual connotations in that song untill you just said that!!

4 me the ultimate prince lyric is!!!!!

"I guess I should have known by the way u parked your car sideways that it wouldn't last"

now that is genius

And I saw an angel come down unto me,
And in her hand she holds the very key
Words of compassion , words of peace
And in the distance, in an army's marching beat
But behold, we will watch them fall...

And we lay down, on the sand of the sea,
And before us, animosity will stand and decree,
That we speak not of love, only blasphemy,
In the distance, six others will curse me,

But, that's all right... I will watch them fall...

I love the whole of that song, its just one big love poem!

The feeling u get when u fall in love not with boy or girl but with a heaven above-lovesexy

"The Work Part 1"

Every time I watch the other people news
I c a false picture of myself, another one of u
They try 2 tell us what we want, what 2 believe
Didn't that happen in the Garden
When somebody spoke 2 Eve?
But I'm willing 2 do The Work
Willing 2 do what I gotta do
I'm willing 2 do The Work
Tell me now - what about u?

Look around and tell me ur Sun is Risen
When ur brothers and sisters r in the Fall
What is left 2 give when r work is done?
What do we own besides the right 2 crawl?

C we're living in a system that the devil designed
And suffering from this devil's most heinous crime
He's tried 2 keep us from the reason we were born
That is 2 b the living truth in human 4m

But I'm willing 2 do The Work
Willing 2 do what I gotta do
I'm willing 2 do The Work
Tell me now - what about u?

This work is not an easy task
But this is the work we must do 4 Revelation 2 come 2 pass
This work is the kind that turns ur back on the Ruling Class
By putting them in their place just like the past

(c) 2001 Prince

"money might talk but what does it say, u better get busy if u wanna get paid"

"The girl was rough, but they called her bluff. And they told her not to know was better. Back to fiction she wondered; that's when the rain and thunder got wetter...

'I'm your messiah and you're the reason why' (i wld die 4 u)
