in real life he would dare try this shit on with a real woman - she'd sit on him & snap him in half.. 
but i think it's fair 2 say these lyrics were intentionally designed 2 split sides!  @ the idea of a woman sitting on Prince and snapping him in half. Yes, you are right, Prince definitely wrote these lyrics to be funny. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

I guess I'm stepping a little outside of the topic as this is intentional... but I challenge everybody here to keep a straight face through an entire play of Poom Poom!
Well maybe it's just me, but I can't get past the title without a smile on my face already. It's not so much the lyrics though, it's the delivery, or the general phonetic effect of the whole song. The little leaflet that comes with the Crystal Ball CDs box says for that song: "Poom Poom - Never intended 4 any album, just a funny track 2 make a female laugh" I can't help posting it - just to see the written text makes me laugh! The first line is delivered in such a heart-trending scream of desperation... and I love the minute time monitoring:) What am I gonna do?! PoomPoom PoomPoom PoomPoom PoomPoom PoomPoom PoomPoom Poom {x4} {Repeat phrase in chorus} 4:57 with U on the mind I'm cravin' U so much - shit, I crave U all the time Sweet chemistry we got My blood's runnin' so hot Every time I think about the PoomPoom PoomPoom I can't stop thinkin' about U (PoomPoom) Every day and night, girl (PoomPoom) PoomPoom I can't stop thinkin' about U (PoomPoom) (PoomPoom) 4:58 and I'm hard straight Licorice and goldenseal is all I ate If U were here I wouldn't masturbate Wishin' I was kin 2 your PoomPoom Kin 2 your PoomPoom I can't stop thinkin' about your Poom (PoomPoom) Every day and night (PoomPoom) Yeah, hey, hey (PoomPoom) PoomPoom, yeah (PoomPoom) Hey lil' shorty, what yo name is? Catchin' all this wreck in the music biz How'd U get that body my crew be mackin'? How'd U get dem eyes? Dem all yo lashes? Honey, U number 2 on my chart Before U get 2 one, U got 2 audition… U got 2 audition 4 the part (Boom) Now what's yo doctor's name? (PoomPoom) U know what I'm talkin' about (PoomPoom) Let me see yo papers (PoomPoom) PoomPoom (PoomPoom) Yeah, U alright, U alright Let me take this outta my mouth (Poom) 4:59, huh, could U be so kind 2 tick a little faster so I could, so I could, so I could find (Tick-tock {x4}) A better way 2 spend this precious, this precious time Than occupying my mind with the PoomPoom Thinkin' about your PoomPoom Oh no, can't stop thinkin' about U (PoomPoom) (Hold it right there, shorty) Every day and night, girl (PoomPoom) (Don't U move now – what yo name is?) What am I gonna do? (PoomPoom) (What yo name is?) What am I gonna do? (U lookin' good 2 me) Yeah! (PoomPoom) (Catchin' all this wreck) Yeah, what am I gonna do? (PoomPoom) (U little ass) I can't stop, I can't stop, I can't stop thinkin' about your PoomPoom (PoomPoom) (Is that all your hair, girl? U know U look good) Ooh, ooh! (PoomPoom) (Gimme yo name, what yo name is?) (PoomPoom) (Well then fuck U then) (PoomPoom) {x8} PoomPoom PoomPoom PoomPoom PoomPoom PoomPoom PoomPoom Poom {x4} | |

And another one, a little in the vein of 'Work That Fat' content-wise, that totally cracks me up is Cloreen Bacon Skin.
I find the whole thing hilarious, it's delivered in a hoarse kind of old voice. The little Crystal Ball leaflet says: "Prince would go in2 an alter ego voice that was sick, spirited, and highly percussive. This kept it funky." The way he sings in that voice "I wanna get sexy, Cloreen, come on, get down" and "What's the matter, don't U like me? Am I 2 old?" is just too much!
It also says: "Everything U hear is impromptu. No lyrics or music, even the title was made up a split second be4 U hear it." If that's true that it's pure improvisation, this song takes my respect for him to an entirely new level... And I adore its beats too! | |

These are the lines that I find funny, when listening to Prince on my iPod.
"Shhh" In the daytime, ha, I think not! I'd rather do U after school like some homework "I Hate You" U gave your body 2 another in the name of fun I hope u had some baby, if not, boo hoo "If I Was Your Girlfriend" Is it really necessary 4 me 2 go out of the room Just because u wanna undress? I mean, we dont have 2 make children 2 make love And then, we dont have 2 make love 2 have an orgasm "Adore" U made love 2 me Like you were afraid Was you afraid of me? Was I the first? Was I your every fantasy? You could burn up my clothes Smash up my ride, well maybe not the ride ...I'd like 2 think that I'm a man of exquisite taste "Lolita" You're a V.I.P at least to me Come here And show me some i.d. I know you're fine from head to pumps If U Were Mine We'd Bump Bump Bump But you're much too young to peep my stash You're tryin' to write checks your body can't cash You can't hang with this, girl "Black Sweat" [i]I don't want to take my clothes off But I do I don't want to turn nobody on 'less it's U I don't want to dance too hard But this is a groove I'm hot and I don't care who knows it I got a job to do You can act hard if you want to This groove will make you sweat You'll be screamin' like a white lady When I count to three | |

Work That Fat Yo, yo - where all the fat girls at? Get on the dance floor, baby And let me work that fat (Woo!) Yeah, let me work that fat Yeah! That's how we like 'em - fat and proud Cuz when they sit down, they sit all around The whole house - sidewalk and everything else I'll be damned, baby, if U don't sit on yourself But that's what I like U 4 (Let me work that fat) {x2} And take U 2 the crib - I swear 2 God U got stuck in the door Say U didn't, U know U did Opened up the ice box, ate everything in the crib Midnight snack, my ass! Bought 7 packs of cookies, thinking they would last I'll be damned, baby ate the wrapper 2! Then looked at me and said, "Nigga, I'll eat U, 2!" (Let me work that fat) {x2} But I guess 4 now that'll do My baby's fat - I like her like that I hate a skinny skench talking straight out her hat About a credit card, and how I need 2 give her mine I swear 2 God I'll step on that neck every time! (Let me work that fat) I'd rather hang out with my boys and cruise Plymouth Lookin' 4 a fat girl toy so I can make a play And take her 2 the way And introduce her 2 my brother Sonny T's bass Or maybe my guitar I'll play so loud she'll quickly get her big ass in the car Get in, shut up, get in! Push the seat back - U can fit Then sit on top of the monster, I don't care! Just shut up, get in! (Let me work that fat) {x2} What? What? Oh! {x3} U in trouble now! Mike, turn this shit up! Aw yeah! (Let me work that fat) {x2} Told U U should... Shut up! Sit down! Got sho'nuff plenty nerve (What, what?) (Let me work that fat) {x2} Ha ha ha... Damn, is this where U live? How many food stamps did U have 2 give 2 get this palace? Yeah, this is really nice I betcha my thigh ain't as big as one of these mice What kind of traps U use? I know they don't work Mice take the cheese and say, "D-d-damn, what a jerk!" U must be nuts - think I'm go'n sleep here Quiet as it's kept There's several things 2 fear in this habitat Let me guess, let me guess "U like it like that" {x2} So nobody'll rob ya Well, as a matter of fact who is this brother? What's he doing in your bed? Wake up, brother, 'fore I take this new 9 and tap U on your head! No no, she's my girl - every last mile Now I suggest U start explaining Before I slap that smile in the living room U got a lotta nerve Why don't U get your clothes And introduce your silly ass 2 the curb? Damn, I shoulda known Treat a lady wrong, she'll do U the same Can I use your phone? I wanna call Mike Mike, gimme another solo I'm through with these fat girls They know they fine They pop U out every time Know what, U know what? If I see your boyfriend outside I'm go'n hit him with the car That's right Oh! Fat girls Let me work that fat Although, a fat woman might not find the lyrics amusing.very true because i played it 4 someone that wasn't fat but she considered herself 2 b a little over weight..she didn't laugh at all u would have thought i said "i didn't know i was playing in a cathedral"  man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81 | |

Efan said: Do certain lyrics make you laugh, even though they're not supposed to?
For me: "He made the dumb understand" (4 the Tears in Your Eyes) This just sounds so cold, like "Jesus--so simple even stupid people get it!". It's funny to me. "My hairdresser's gay" (Madrid 2 Chicago) Well, duh. But even more than that, I love that a straight man has a hairdresser. If you've got more, throw 'em out. OK, for real. Do you not know what the definition of 'dumb' is? Especially in the context of this song?
It doesn't mean 'stupid' it means 'unable to talk' - as in deaf and mute. Helen Keller was called 'blind, deaf and dumb.' | |

But not being able to speak has nothing to do with being able to understand things. Lots of people who can't talk understand things. [Edited 6/16/08 13:28pm] | |

Actually, being deaf, blind and not able to speak has everything to do with not being able to understand things. It's not about not having the intelligence to understand…it's about not having any way to communicate or be communicated to. This is exactly what he means by that line and (I believe that) he is making reference to a passage in the bible. | |
