Say whut?! Don't know if anyone has run a thread on this before but thought I'd start one anyway...
Are there any Prince lyrics that you heard and thought 'whut?!', 'wtf?' or 'what in the hell is that supposed to mean?' Just one off the top of my head is 'When we're makin love it's like surgery'... am I missing something here? I'm not stopping. I haven't even taken my coat off

I believe that one's about how there's no such thing as a Trinity in Prince's beliefs. [Edited 8/14/08 15:33pm] | |

Well the first one I have never heard,but I guess he could mean that both surgery,and sex require some skill. 1+1+1=3.. since he says "If your going to be with me 1+1+1=3" I took it as whomever he was with had to agree with whatever he thought was so..but since 1+1+1 does =3 that would'nt be hard to agree with. "The opposite of NATO is OTAN." I have never heard this one either,but OTAN is NATO spelled backward,so maybe that is all he meant. just my thoughts....

Prince says alot of stuff that makes me go WTF.
I just smile, and act like I know what he means. It made my life alot easier. <--I grin like that. But on the serious tip, that NATO/OTAN stuff was a major headscrather. I love a Man who:

No, seriously, I'm pretty sure 1+1+1=3 is about the Trinity. Prince is saying there's a theocratic order, meaning there is just one God, not one God divided up into three parts.
"The opposite of NATO is Aten" is what Prince is saying in the other one. Aten represents the origin of monotheism. From Wikipedia: Aten (or Aton) was the disk of the sun in ancient Egyptian mythology, and originally an aspect of Ra. He became the deity of the monotheistic--in fact, monistic--religion of Amenhotep IV, who took the name Akhenaten. The worship of Aten seems to have ceased shortly after Akhenaten's death | |

1+1+1=3 simply as in the holy trinity but also as in
man + wife + god = trinity/perfect union and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

So we're not actually talking about the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), then...?

Just one off the top of my head is 'When we're makin love it's like surgery'... am I missing something here? Most of the lyrics in superfunkycalifragisexy, but it dosent matter, cause its funky!:"Brother Lois should be around in a minute With a bucket filled with squirreled meat" "The blood is real good if u drink it real fast But the aftertaste just lasts and lasts " "Keep the blood flowin' down 2 your feet Brother Lois will be round in a minute " Freedom is to trust that you're doing what you must according to your lust | |

Wow...The truth is deep, I guess Love is in the eye of the beholder.
"I never was the kind to make a fuss, when he was there sleeping in between the two of us," is a man loving a woman through the duration of their relationship...knowing it will end, and ...when he takes his bow, and makes his exit, he'll be there to take her home. When the two become one flesh...I suppose is as surgical as a man digging into his own chest and pulling a rib off of his rib cage, to call his girlfriend. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |
