Any Spell a Blind Fisherman could Cast.

I traveled online 2 PrinceLyrics today because I was unsure of this line in, "The One U wanna C."

Any spell a blind fisherman could cast
That's why I come like thunder.

This is another Prince riddle that I'm curious about.
Blind I suppose is colorblind in a man searching the sea for a mate, but I'm not sure.
Thunder, sounds forceful and powerful. I suppose it may mean some kind of media stunt, but I'm not sure.
Any guesses?

Just 2 mention I was reading the lyrics they had posted for "The Lion of Judah," and these words are wrong.
,,,Everyone expects this outcome
...yet still they jump 4 all the crew.

I think what he meant by the lyric is that

He was under a spell
which made him blind
which is why he ended sleeping with Jerome.

Basically, he's trying to make excuses for
slapping some sausage on his face.




His lyrics all have double meanings in them.
All you gotta do is read between the lines.

i had to really think about that line 'that's why i come like thunder'

and then i realized maybe the 'thunder' is because of gastric trouble! maybe a reference to dietary indiscretions committed by the blind fisherman. i really don't know, but that's my 2c*











* prince if you're reading this drivel, please do not take it personally, as i have certainly committed some dietary indiscretions of my own and there are certain times of the day when you would want to avoid me and my 'thunder'

Yes!!!

Or lyrics like "Electric Chair" where he says,
"Your face looks so good. I wanted to touch your mouth!"

Well, it's a well known fact that in some species of animals and sponges, the face is also the ass. Or at the very least the face looks like the ass (earth worms).

And what is a mouth anyways? Just the other end of a long tube LEADING TO THE ASS!

It's so obvious when you think about it.

i'm glad we talk about stuff like this because i thought i was the only one who appreciates prince's earthy side. the fact that he is comfortable enough to talk about bodily explosions/excretions and stuff in his songs, especially when they occur during sex, makes me feel more comfortable about myself too. i might even try coming like thunder next time i have an intimate encounter of my own.

Just goes 2 show ya...
Throw a line into an online think tank...

Catch a couple of blanks.

...tame..remember back in the new testament..when Jesus set out to preach the gospel?..he picked 12 apostles..they where ALL FISHERMEN...when Jesus asked them to join him on his quest..they all accepted "blindly"..they all became prohets as-well..and were given special gifts..they could speak in tongues..that it-self would be the spell because they never had spoke those languages before..thunder is a sound..so everyone heard them too...

..prince is going back to the bible in his songs...he is just being abstract about it...because those that have choose the enlightenment will understand those lyrics...

..the lion of judah is the emblem the tribe used...where king david reigned...everyone knew king david was chosen by God..so everyone knew when king david say something or wanted something done..it HAD to be obeyed...

...i like the way prince gets his messages across..they are beautiful...mzsexybaby
