Got trees and vegetation in the City i stay the rents in the mail and i can always find a parking space the women out number the men two to one got parks and zoo's and things to do with my son the night life aint all that but thats ok i dont need to be distracted by the devil everyday and the jobs aint really hard to find infact, you could have mine if you knew how to rhyme This is for everyone around the planet that wishes they were from somewhere other than where they're standin dont take it for granted instead take a look around quit complaing and build somthing on that ground plant somthing on that ground dance and sleep on that ground get on your hands and knees and watch the ants walk around the ground make a family make magic make a mess take the stress fill your motovation and build your nest it sucks that you think where im from is whack but as long as thats enough to keep your ass from comin back and with a smile and a hint of sarcasim he says I beg your pardon, but this is my secret garden In the land of ice and snow In the land of ice and snow In the land of ice and snow so if the people laugh and giggle when you tell em where you live say shh...say shh.. and if you know this is where you wanna raise your kids say shh...say shh.. if your from the midwest and it doesnt matter where say shh...say shh if you can drink tap water and breathe the air say shh...say shh... if the playground is clear of stems and syringes say shh...say shh... and if theres only one store that sells twelve inches say shh...say shh... if no one in your crew walks with a gun say shh...say shh... and if you aint gonna leave cause this is where your from say shh... say shh... | |

Wow, didnt know that. Was it any good? The song seems a bit too mature for a 16 year old to be singing! It's not bad version, but to me it seems abit much for him! Life's a Parade! LoveLife, LoveSexy! | |

I guess that's why the 'Do you after school' lyric was in there. I'd have thought he'd have changed the line for his version though! "Sheeeeeeeeit" | |

The "I wanna do u after school like some homework" line is hilarious.  I always laugh when that line comes on. Yeah, but the song is the hotness, definitely.  Prince Rogers Nelson

THIS IS SO WEIRD...lol That someone would bring this up today. I was cleaning around the house, and I had my MP3 player in my speakers and this song came on. From the first beat of the drum to the last guitar riff, this song is flawless.
"I wanna do u after school like some homework...uh...am I gettin' U hot?"....."YES!!!" One of my other fav parts of the song is: "I wanna whisper music in your ear, that'll rock ya rock ya rock ya world!" Whoa, and then that guitar solo at the end, DAYUM! I wonder where the inspiration for that song came from?? Hmmmm...lol But this is muh jam! Hearing it live is even more awesome. Georgia Dome-Musicology-2004, perfection! John Blackwell tore it up! | |

i wanted to make a song about where im from you know big ups my hometown my territory my state but, i couldnt figure out much to brag about well, prince lives here we got ten thousand lakes but wait the women are beautiful to me they are and were not infested with pretentious movie stars and it hit me man minnesota is dope if only simply for not what we have but what we dont its all fair it aint out there its in there its in the mirror behind the breast under the hair follow the dream doesn't mean leave the love roam if you must but come home when you've seen enough i love new york and cali but i aint movin too over populated saturated with humans and im not big on rappers, actors, or models if i had to dip id prolly skip to Chicago None of this next to this no one no where like damn im from minnesota land of the cold air too many mesquitoes and a fair share of egos but like my man Sabe says thats where my mommy stays so if the people laugh and giggle when you tell em where you live say shh...say shh.. and if you know this is where you wanna raise your kids say shh...say shh.. if your from the midwest and it doesnt matter where say shh...say shh if you can drink tap water and breathe the air say shh...say shh...

I like both versions and think this one sounds like something Prince actually might have wrote. A master of turning the ordinary, bland everyday event into something sensuous and beautiful  it's as if he's able to see both sides of the coin  Imagine him singing the vocals while strumming his  this song would most definetely reek of sexiness. | |

It's one of my favorite Prince songs of all-time!!! His version of this song is absolutely stunning!!!
When I heard Tevin's version when it came out, I knew Prince had written it because of the lyrics. When I saw Prince perform this song during the Musicology tour my jaw was on the floor from the opening drumbeat, til the last guitar riff!!! I have a DVD of a Philly Musicology show, and you can tell that SHH is my favorite part because the DVD skips during the song!!! JERKIN' EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!!!! | |
