LOLLIN at someone finding something dirty in "Get on the Boat" ... seriously what the hell

1. Come. Dirty song. One of his dirtiest ever if you listen to the lyrics in their entirety, but it's still a musical adventure, and a work of rhythmic art.

2. Auto-matic. This song doesn't get the props it's due. This is a FANTASTIC song. The lyrical content stopped it from being released as a single, but the verse "I'll go down on you all night long. It's automatic" is PHENOMENAL Prince. Once again, when his dirty songs are artfully constructed and creative, I'm a fan.

3. Tamborine. I'm learning alot about myself with this post. I like it when Prince is creative with his "allusions" to all-things taboo. Great song! I mean, why say "I guess I'll just sit around, and play around with my baby's vagina", when he can be creative and call it a "tamborine". I guess that's the "musician" in him.

4. Insatiable. "Even if I wasn't thirsty, I would drink every drop." He's not talkin' about Kool-Aid, people.

5a. Poom Poom. There are plenty of people who don't "feel" this song, but this cut is a JAM! I can groove to it, and that voice he uses like he's got food in his mouth is typical improvisational Prince.

5b. Feel U Up. The music is catchy as can be. I liked the fact that it was a B-side... kind of like... a dirty little secret. I can jam to this in the car from Philly to New York, and never get tired of. I think the Camille voice adds to this one.

5c. I Love You in Me. It's kinda slow and no where near a gem of a slow jam, but you tell me who else can sing a song with this title. Once again, another B-side, so it was kind of like a dark hidden bad boy dream sequence song, but I'd be amiss if I didn't mention this pearl of a unique song.

Oh,i almost forgot about ExtraLovable.Go ahead Prince.

1- Come
2- Head
3- Sister
4- Pheromone
5- I Love U In Me

oh yeah, since he talking bout raping somebody it is quite dirty

MantuaPharoah said:

Uh...he's actually singing about jacking himself off to a dirty magazine... It's a song about self-masturbation.

"Guess that I'll stay at home
All alone and play my tamborine"

Listen again...

No... I'm pretty sure he's speaking about "his baby's vagina".

Here's the lyrics.

I doubt he means "what's it like inside your penis". lol

He also says "what's it like inside your tamborine"... and refers to it as "my baby's tamborine".

And honestly, if he's saying "why are you the star of all my dreams", I would have serious reservations about a man claiming that his penis, or masturbation, or whatever... is the STAR of his dreams.

But then again, with Prince, you never know.


Oh my God
Here U are, prettiest thing in life I've ever seen
(Mm hmm)
Close my eyes
What's it like, what's it like inside your Tamborine?

Oh my God
There I go falling in love with a face in a magazine
(Uh oh, not again)
All alone by myself
Me and I play my tamborine

Trampoline {x4}
Long days, lonely nights – trampoline {x2}

I don't care 4 one night stands with trolley cars that juggle 17
I just wanna settle down and play around my baby's tamborine

Tamborine, what are U?
[ Tamborine lyrics from http://www.lyricsyoulove.com/ ]
Why are U the star of all my dreams?
(Star of all my dreams - are U a good tamborine?)
Are U good? Are U bad?
Are U just unnecessary means?

Trampoline
Tamborine, tamborine - trolley cars

Long days, lonely nights
2 bad we're not allowed 2 scream (Yeah, yeah, 2 bad)
Guess that I'll stay at home all alone
And play my tamborine (Aww)

Tamborine {x4}

The tamborine!



Yep... I'm pretty sure "play my tamborine" means he's playing "his baby's" tamborine... not his.

I also doubt that "2 bad we're not allowed 2 scream" means that it's too bad that he and his penis can't scream. LOL

Man... studying Prince's music would be an amazing trek.

MantuaPharoah said:

Wait... just read the lyrics again.

Prince references being "all alone", and "a face in a magazine".

So yep, you're probably right.

But then again... my previous argument is pretty interesting too.

With Prince, you never know. The guy is just confused!!! lol

I don't think P Control is a dirty song. It's about empowerment, it's not about fuckin', just cuz he curses in it.

1. Erotic City
2. Head
3. Ripopgodazippa
4. Let's Pretend We're Married
5. Automatic

MantuaPharoah said:

Okay, I think we're both correct. Somewhat...

Imagine this: Prince is all alone and feeling a little . Luckily he has a Playboy magazine laying around . He opens up the magazine and sees this naked woman who is the prettiest woman he's ever seen . As a matter of fact he's falling in love with her face in the magazine . He then proceeds to , closes his eyes and tries to imagine what it's like inside her "tamborine". Now he also uses the metaphor "tamborine" to describe his genitals as well in "Guess that I'll stay at home all alone And play my tamborine (Aww)"
So looks like we're both correct. Somewhat....
