Who ever said that Elephants are Stronger than Mules?

Just wanted to run by you a quote from a favorite Prince song of mine.
song "Paisley Park" 1985 All Around the world in a Day cd
I never noticed the double meaning to this line until recently amazingly. duhhh...

"Who ever said that Elephants were stronger than Mules?" Republicans and Democrats

"Come to the park and play with us, there aren't any rules in Paisley Park" Government...We the people make the government..give it power! VOTE NOV 7th!!!!
"Paisley Park is in your heart" Love
"Old man sits all alone by the pier.".."City condems where he lives"
reminds me of Black and Elderly victems in New Orleans Katrina.???
$185 Million for a stadium insteadof their homes.

You are a bit late on this but you are right, when he sang Paisley Park during the 2002 Celebration at Paisley Park he said " Democrats and Republicans !" after singing the line about elephants and mules.

One of my favorite songs from ATWIAD. Except the lyrics go..."There is a woman who sits all alone on the pier." And "See the man cry as the city condemns where he lives."
