"I guess my eyes can only see as far as U" - ("With You" ...Damn, how fuckin' tight is THAT!? razz )

"I never thought that I could feel this way/2 fall in love was a table reserved for fools" - ("Eye Hate U"...That shit was CRUCIAL! biggrin )

"There's a gentle autumn breeze that blows whenever we be lyin'...lyin' in my bed/The moon appears and disappears, U look at me, my clothes I quickly...I quickly shed" - ("The Screams of Passion"...Tell her, P! wink )

"Love is 2 weak 2 define how much I adore U, chile" - ("Adore" ...Whoo! wink )


"U're saving your love 4 some soldier who'd much rather die than stay by your side" - ("Desire"...Damn! razz )

"Baby, U've got 2 be from a different world/Cuz just one look from U could make an army surrender" - ("Crucial"...Whoa! wink)

"If ever honey U need someone 2 take a shower with girl, call me up and scream/Extra lovable, honey, don't U wanna, don't U wanna take a bath with me?" -
("Extralovable"....Get that P, P! razz )

"Last night when I left U I was so sure/We'd be 2gether 4ever and 4 days/And now my shade of blue couldn't get no bluer/I don't even know what I did 2 make U go away" - ("Goodbye"...Deeeeep! biggrin )

"If U're lookin' 4 a man that'll make U feel like time has just begun,
ooh/A man that'll make U feel like U're the only thing that ever mattered/Underneath the sun, underneath the sun, ooh"
- ("The One"...I used that line! razz )

The sun set in my heart this afternoon
Cuz 2 friends of mine got stuck in the snow
In Uptown when winter's alarmin', oh
Cocaine becomes charmin'
2 talk about things U don't know 'bout
I know, no matter how pleasant your past was
Green and white return 2 blue
U're happy as long as your last buzz
And then U think U want something new, yeah
- ("Ole Friends 4 Sale"...Damn, that was deep eek )

Died in her sleep
Parents went crazy and cried for a week
They swore they heard her laughter
in the crib by the wall
They're convinced she's with us if she's anything at all

But I didn't know where to begin
So I laid down in the grass
tried to feel the Earth turn...

maybe, maybe, maybe, i could learn to love, i mean the right way! i mean the only way! perhaps you can show me baby how (Anna Stesia)

i guess i should i have known by the way you parked your car sideways that it wouldn´t last....(little red corvette)

I knew a girl named Nikki
I guess u could say she was a sex fiend
I met her in a hotel lobby
Masturbating with a magazine (darling Nikki)


act your age not your shoe size (KISS)

She knew which fork 2 use but she couldn't dance
So he hipped her 2 the funk in xchange 4 the finance
Who's pimpin' who if nobody gets a second chance?
That's the story of illusion, coma, pimp & circumstance (illusion, coma, pimp & circumstance )


dig if you will the picture of you and i engaged in a kiss, the sweat of your body covers me can you my darling?...can you picture this?...(When doves cry)

did you do to your other men the same things that you did to me?, right now i hate you so much i want to make love until you see that is killing me baby to be without you cause all i ever wanted to do is to be with you.... (I hate u)

Thinking about U driving me crazy
My friends all say it's just a phase, but
Every day is a yellow day
I'm blinded by the daisies in your yard (The condition of the heart)

K i searched for the lyrics and couldnt find it but it goes a little bit like this.

See words are like shoes, their just something to stand on
I wish you could be in my shoes
but their probably so high youd fall off and die
for you words arent shoes

their weapons and tools of destruction
and your time is boring unless your putting someone down
and what would life be if we believe what we see
and not a smile in a line of a frown.

Thats the best i could remember
but i always touched me


p.s its Hello the B-side of Pop Life


This is one of my all time favorites, too. Let me correct it for you:

I know in my heart I would try 2 love U
I wouldn't try 2 hurt U despite all the ways U try 2 hurt me
U call me a fraud, an uncaring wretch
But I'm an artist and my only aim is 2 please
Between U and yours, myself and mine
Isn't life cruel enough without cruel words, cruel words?
U see, words are like shoes
They're just something 2 stand on
I wish U could be in my shoes
But they're probably so high, U'd fall off and die
4 U words are definitely not shoes
They're weapons and tools of destruction
And your time is boring unless U're putting something down
What would life be if we believed what we read
And a smile is just hiding a frown?

Come now, isn't life a little better with a pair of good shoes?


One of the better examples of the genius lyricist that Prince is.

When I hear such Poetic Genius, I just feel so unworthy to listen to such beauty!

He's the Man!

From Dreamin about U

When my sane twin reigns
Claiming your aim is 2 maim my subconscious into being with U
I dream about U Betting on the notion that if my lustier twin prevails
Like the ruins of Rome, I'll lie helpless at your feet

From the Screems of Passion

The sunlight draws a picture through the silky lace
That hangs above your, hangs above your door
A picture that is waving, that it seems 2 be with every thrust U
Make me beg 4 more

Oh, a robin sings a masterpiece
That lives and dies unheard
4 screams of passion
A sound produced by 2 in love
Curtains dance and autumn plays on
(Oh, 2 in love, on and on)
The screams of passion

All I hear in my head echoing like a volcano, baby
The screams of passion
Back and forth the raging seas of lust, I want U madly
Can't U tell, can't U tell, can't U tell, can't U tell?
Oww!

Take me in your arms, oh baby
The crime is done, I'd rather die here in your
Screams of passion
Whoa, hold me now, baby
Tell me that U love me
Is it Sunday or is it passion?

Love, love (The screams of passion)
The screams of passion, yeah yeah, love
The screams of, the screams of, the screams of passion, passion
Hand me that love
We all want a big hit again because
we want to relive the Hysteria & Pandemonium we experienced
when Purple Rain was Hot. Actually, he doesn't care if it happens again or not.

Good choice from Hello!

I used to Live by those thoughts
And Die by these

Whatever U heard about me is true
I change the rules and do what I wanna do
I'm in love with God, He's the only way
Cuz U and I know we gotta die some day
If U think I'm crazy, U're probably right
But I'm gonna have fun every motherfuckin' night
If U like 2 fight, U're a double-drag fool
I'm goin' 2 another life, how 'bout U?

"I just can't stop writin' songs about you,
I love you so much
I just can't wait to get my arms around you,
And feel your touch.
If I don't see you real soon baby girl I might go insane.
I know it's only been 3 hours but I love it when you call my name.
" - Call My Name
...

So many speak of the moon as though it had no flaws,
But to compare it to a beauty like yours
Would give one pause.
- Call My Name
...

God forbid...
If you belonged to another I'd have to steal you...
I might be tempted to break the law 'round here.
Because your beauty gives one pause.

Oh fuck it, the WHOLE DAMN SONG IS LIVE!!!!!
He's such a fucking ARTIST, it makes me sick!
The fact that any one man should have this much talent is bullshit!

That is easily one of his best love songs of the past decade. I like the verse regarding "land of the free...bugged my phone...peep around my home". (I did not paraphrase it perfectly)

Interesting wordplay on the "war on terror" and his deep rooted love for the muse in his song.
