You know what gets me? "Starfish and coffee"?

C'mon! No one eats starfish! And junior-high school kids don't drink coffee! Also, you can't put a cloud into your lunchkit - everyone knows that! Plus, there aren't any clouds made out of butterscotch. I mean, really!

I just could never buy into that song.


Not to take this discussion to a crude level...

(And before anyone here complains like usual when someone gets crude, remember this is a website dedicated to Prince. Prince isn't crude these days lyrically, but he was in the old days. This is a site for old and new Prince. Not just JW Prince. Besides, crudity is an opinion, even though republican, religious-wackos, wal-mart-censorship-friendly, George Bush-supporters would like to be able to define what opinions are good. Remember Prince is the guy with ass-cut-out pants and did songs like Head and Sister.)

Anyway...

Starfish is another term for a butthole. And you can eat a butthole. And coffee is another term for diarrhea in some circles.

Sure, it is crude, but it is very possible that Prince is singing about buttholes and diarrhea.


In a song where elementary school children are the characters?!?

Ewwwww!!!!! Bernie, I'm telling your brother Steve about this!

That's my point! How can there be a dark place on a forum dedicated to a man who writes songs about incest, S&M, beheadings and 23 positions in a one night stand? Lest ya'll be hypocrites?

okay, new challenge - Name songs in which Prince discusses incest, S&M, beaheadings and 23 positions in a one night stand.


p.s. How did you know Steve was my brother?

of someone's asshole, can you?

In 1992, Prince released the Symbol album. Tony M said "I put my foot in the ass of Jim Crow" Unless Tony M has a delorean there is no possible way he could have put a foot in the ass of Jim Crow. Come on, Prince. Nice one letting that one slip on the record.

Well, it depends who you ask. Some (albeit strangely so) people may believe a liquid lunch is perfectly fine. Who are we to place our judgements against them and get all offended. I mean, we're expected to not get all offended when someone gets all religious on us. To me religion is WAY more offensive than a brown shower. But who is judge and jury on which offense should be censored?

Also, if incest is okay and "liquid lunches" is over the line... then please tell me exactly where the line is drawn...?

you do have a point there. i'm still not quite sure on how he managed to get
"sister" past the censors. perhaps if he'd offered his sister to pop a brown
burito into her mouth someone would have said "you can't release this!" ?

i'm not sure.

I can't tell if some of y'all are serious or not. But if you are, I shudder to think we have something in common.

I am very serious. In "Starfish and coffee", he sings about a girl eating starfish and coffee for lunch. But starfish aren't common in the super market. Did Lil Cynthia steal it from an aquarium? Jesus, it's just so damn sad that mistakes like this are put in songs. Children having coffee doesn't send a good message either. But that is more of a moral dilemma.

Thanks for reading,
