Uncanny:

1. eerie: too strange or unlikely to seem merely natural or human

2. keen: unexpectedly accurate or precise

confuse

anywho: def striptease falloff

i always thought that was a funny line. it probably means like
a very cool striptease, right?

but it sounds like a hearing impaired strip tease falloff

uncanny, imo, would be something like

talk of children still frightens me
is my character enough to be
one that deserves a copy made
this on one day, i hope to see


the truth, and the accuracy of which makes it
one of the most honest and close to home bits
of lyric prince ever wrote.

You mean like this one from 'Now'?:

Take it from this sista, y'all take it from that
It's flyer 2 be hungry than phat
The ride up front is better when U've been in the back
That's a fact

Is this what you're looking for? biggrin

Am I the weaker man
Because I understand
That love must be the master plan
