I guess it´s just some romantic, poetic stuff, like an adlib in written form or something, the most poetic part being : " There´s this purple suspicion that lurks in the anals of my mind that...." blabla, that part is priceless ! Someone MUST have noticed this before it went to print, right ? A big project like that...and the proof reading / spell checking department was on strike . lol


'( Ehhh, I´m not a native speaker, but I guess you catch my drift...you do, don´t you ? lol )

Classic stuff...I used to read that over and over when I was 12.
" I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?"

I suspect the proof reader was so retentive, he told no-one.

Prince also used to rant the same gibberish during part of the Purple Rain tour concerts. Around about the same time he had the conversation with God whilst taking a bath ... previewing the 'Temptation' coda speech.
ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift.

I think they played that or something close to it during part of the Purple Rain concerts.
