Jack U Off

Okay, I never understood this one. Prince sings, "let's sit in the back and girl i'll jack u off". Is this strange to "jack off a girl"? I know this is normally a term used for a guy. But a girl? I am not familiar with this use of the term... Maybe its a Minneapolis thing..

This is an example of the role-playing lyrics that Prince wrote back then lol He knew that it would raise eyebrows when people hear a man singing about jacking somebody off,lol.

Dez Dickerson tells a story about this song and how they tried to convince Prince that "Jack U off" usually wasn't said by a man to a woman...Prince of course stuck with what he wanted...Probably why some men think Prince is strange...That's just Prince and more power 2 him...

Is there a good slang term for when a man gives a woman a hand job?

I never heard him say "girl" in the song, but even if he did, lots of gay men call each other "girl". lol

I've heard of jacking off a girl, but it always involved a dildo.


But Prince deliberately posted ambiguous lyrics me thinks.

fingering is not a good word for a song. It takes too long to say; the song would have to be a ballard.

it's a really coarse expression, but i guess it's a comical song, so i let him off.
it always reminds me of the rolling stones opener gig that prince did - when the crowd launched litter & boos the band as they sang this song.
i love the way he sang 'as a matter of fact u can jack ME off'..& i get a visual of him finger

I played this song for a male friend of mine and he was sooo uncomfortable. He kept saying, "Is he singing this to a guy? I feel like he's singing this to me!" (he said it with this --> face eek ). He never heard the phrase used towards a girl, but I guess that was the point of it.
"Be glad for what you had baby, what you've got..."

What makes this song one of my favorites is the sweet music that goes with the raunchy lyrics. It's commical and shows P's wit.
