Tangerine.

Tangerine.

Some days I feel Tangerine
Some days I feel Blue
Some days I just wanna Black out
Everything I felt 4 U.
Even though I take Ur picture
Everywhere I go
I use it 4 a coaster
And drink the overflow...

This is a sweet song, but did U ever get to thinkin'?
That Prince was a sloppy drinkin? cool

How many drinks did Prince slosh around to bring truth 2 this lyric?

hopefully 'My Little Pill' wasn't composed in a similar way...

I always wondered why there's many songs that are barely two minutes long, maybe they put across a message clearer than longer ones???
This is what it's like in the dream factory...

I believe that Dayclear is refering 2, "My little Pill." Not "Tangerine."

A Pixie does my laundry and the Universe my will,
Everytime I pop my little pill.

I'm guessing its about the split with Mayte. With the reference to tangerine being the color.

Orange is vibrant. It's a combination of red and yellow so it shares some common attributes with those colors. It denotes energy, warmth, and the sun. Orange brings up images of autumn leaves, pumpkins, and (in combination with Black) Halloween. It represents the changing seasons so in that sense it is a color on the edge, the color of change between the heat of summer and the cool of winter.

I like.. its a cool song that has emotion.

You really broke it down. I always liked this song but never fully understood but what you said makes sense!!!!
U can cut off all my fins - But 2 your ways I will not bend
I'll die before I let U tell me how 2 swim
And I'll come back again as a dolphin
