I definitely heard "erect" - methinks we got another Erotic City on our hands... "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"

Chocolate Box (I've only heard the "singles" so it's easier to pick...) "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"

man he's been doing that since the 80's... I don't think he was. I think he was just saying you have to be not thinking straight, or jut not into fellas. What the hell son is this, by the way? | |

I don't see it as homophobic or putting homosexuality in the same category as drug addiction, the lyrics are pretty clear to me.
I just think it's an example of Prince's recent awkward phrasing in songs, awkard in terms of how it sounds, not the intent of the lyrics themselves. | |

He's not Anita Bryant for heaven's sake. He's running down a list of possible reasons why this chick he's talking to isn't into him. It's a braggadocio thing. He's IT, and she doesn't see that. So he's like "Are you high? Are you gay?" It's like Positive K saying "Whatcha man gotta do wif me? I ain't tryin' to hear that." | |

CNNBREAKINGNEWS said: is this a good line or bad line ...i was just thinking of this and was thinking
An 11 Year-old Massachusetts boy, Carl Joseph Walker-Hoover hung himself Monday after enduring bullying about him being or not being ...gay 2 past Prince songs come to mind where he addressed the same two issues you speak of. in Uptown he described a girl asking him "r u gay" in Lets Go Crazy he said "Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill" in other words poppin pills. oh yes and then life o the party he said about himself "I thought he was gay"don't trip their just lyrics To Sir, with Love | |

I think Prince did that on purpose. He knew that people were goin 2 think he said "erect" just 2 start "controversy". Prince has always teased with lyrics 2 make U think he saying something dirty or nasty. I think its smart of him. [i]  will ALWAYS think of  like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that wasn't of this earth, would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. |

Reminds me of when my friends and I would go out clubbing in the 90s and we realized that giving guys fake names and fake telephone numbers was not an effective broke-back scrub repellant; mainly because if you went back to the same club, you would often run into the same guy and he would approach you and inevitably say "I called you but I must have writen the number down wrong...."
At one point we adopted the practice of telling broke-back scrubs "sorry I'm gay" that usually worked but the stigma of that was guys you might be interested in talking to might not approach you (believe me guys talk); same thing with the "I'm taken" line (although that didn't always work -- we're talkin cat-daddy skrizzle). Ultimately we grew up and finally determined that the best course of action was to say, "no thanks". How simple was that! | |

nothing wrong with the line IMO just a straight guy wondering why a woman hasn't taken up his offer as quickly as he's use to. my fave Prince line when it comes to teh gays is in Madrid 2 Chicago where he has a gay hairdresser. love that line for some reason.
