22 years, to be exact.

WERE U OFFENDED WHEN THIS CAME OUT?IF SO WHY??

No. At one minute and 30 seconds it didn't give me time to be offended, and although it was descriptive it wasn't as descriptive as it could have been. It was quite clear, but it also conveyed a lyrical limit.

I'm so glad this song came up. I'm totally confused about a lyric from this song.

"I discovered a funny way of stopping the Jews". What do the Jews have to do with incest??! Someone please explain.

I thought the line was 'juice' and it was a semen reference...

Any-Way-> I for one totally got off on how offensive that song was to the general public. That was the reason I always loved Prince, for the same reason I like Ice-T, Eazy-E, or Eminem: He wasn't afraid to say it like it was.

I do believe that it's "Jews".
It's a reference from the book of Revelations.

"...and his sister came upon her brother and all of the Jews were stopped upon entrance to the Park..."
-Revelations 24:7

Revelations 24:7 ?

What kind of bible are you reading?! eek

The song has nothing to do with Jews... sigh

But hey, we all have our own interpretations... if that's the one that pleases you... (however inaccurate it may be) , then cool!

Revelations only has 22 books, not 24.
I think the song sister is not talking about his blood sister, but a prositute who was black (sister)
And I thought it said, Honey's got a funny way of stopping the juice.
How you gonna get my back when you fronting.

I'm sitting here crackin' up...Jews...oh Lawd and a bible scripture...God is up there just shakin' His head lol too!

I knew it was about incest but I was more concerned if my mother found out that I was listening to it. My older cousins would play it for me.
