Muse 2 the Pharoah. Hypothetical?

Muse 2 the Pharoah. Hypothetical?

I was listening to this song realizing the hypothetical nature of it's lyrical presentation. Prince is singing from an omnicient narrative point of view. When Prince sings..."There is so much information for the next generation, who's gonna drop it if you're not there." This delivery is as if, Prince is speaking to a group, about a missing person..."The Muse." Perhaps the Muse hears this awesome song, what is she to believe?

My opinion is like this:

The Pharoah is like a man writting a love letter in the sky over the home of the muse...She wakes up every morning and reads the love mixed with the clouds that she knows is directed toward her...And a year goes by, and she is in love with the Pharoah and just wants him to come out of the sky...And he still doesn't do it...eventually she is gonna look up and say..."I don't know if the sky loves me or not."

What do u think? cool

Is this song about a decision to procreate?

pplrasta, the other thread, "A Hundred Years," leads me to hope that Prince will carry the whole rainbow of his career and not just the purple slice. cool

This song, like most of the Rainbow Children album, is anti-semetic in nature.
