Is CURIOUS CHILD about Prince catching someone making love when he was a kid?

Maybe I'm stating the obvious here...Forgive me if I am...

But I was listening to CURIOUS CHILD last night and the lyrics just seemed to jump out at me....

Is Prince singing about being a child, and hearing two adults making love, he climbs up the balcony to watch them?

If you listen to the lyrics I can't see it being about anything else.
(Plus the sound effects of two people groaning give it away LOL.)

I always thought Curious child was about him making love to a young girl (virgin) and the moans in the background were the girls sounds of Passion.

In a room full of harlots and fantasy
Destiny beckoned us there
Curious child on the balcony
We took the dare
Careless I was 2 caress thee
Yet never regretting the time
The joy that we shared, it was meant 2 be
And not a crime
No, its not a crime

If memory serves us, we will align
2 the truth that we most often share
Curious child, u are on my mind
Do u care?

Some people speculate, this song was about him and Mayte.
He met her when she was only 16, while he was in his 30's.
The public was made to believe that he waited until she was 'legal'
But only God knows, if he in fact waited that long.
I have my doubts, especially after hearing this song.
love the one who is Love!

Curious Child coupled with The Morning Papers should b all the clarification 1 needs.
