hahah I love that one man
Whether it be from his guitar or his lyrics, Prince always adds his spontaneous nature in his songs

Lol, I absolutely agree with this.

The line 'If God wanted milk in me The breast I suck would have a line around the hood' actually makes me feel sick..

Dunno, maybe it's meant to??

jimmynothin said:

Nooooo I love these lines!

Exetergirl said:

Oooohh love this too...

Prince is feeling he's have more chance of being listened to if he was a dolphin..

My worst Prince lyric is..

Gett off - 23 positions in a 1 night stand

Cus, it's just showing off really ....

Insatiable,
I Love U In Me,
My Name Is Prince,
Sister,
Dolphin,
Gett Off..

wow,

those are some of my fave Prince songs...

pepper7 said:

aww that is sad

lol I actually love it, because it usually means the song is gonna get a little funkier.

I'm gonna go with:
"Don't wait for your neighbor,
Green eggs and ham!"[/quote]


I just don't get that either

I'm just thinking recently here, but I really was into "Feel Good, Feel Better, Feel Wonderful" all the way until:

Eye feel so good right now
Eye just can't recall
What the __ eye was thinking when eye
Threw you the ball

Okay, P., you had me all the way until that one... all the lyrics are smooth and clever until then. I cringe, and skip over it, or go to the next song.

Also, I agree with the previous poster about "4ever"... I feel like if P. just did one more revision of the lyrics before saying it's done, it could be SOO good. But yeah, lines like "biting that" just seem so out of left field in the context of such a beautiful song. The quirkiness of the line just doesn't work, and the rhyming feels lazy. (lips/hips... really?? *sigh*)

Scrambled eggs, so boring....

and most of the rest of that horrible song.

All of Animal Kingdom.

Thought he was saying "and get ready to creep".

I think he said stop lookin' at me like like unless you want me to bite that. (he says want me to really fast) Doesn't make the lyric much better.

I completely agree with you about the lips hips line. What does it even mean? I don't want to kiss you until I get to hump you?

i had one in my head before i read the thread, but i've forgotten it now. so, i'll have to post the lyrics that bother me later.

Starfish and coffee funny song but stupid lyric

LaAmi said:

I like that one
The latest album has a lyric somewhere "then I checked my email"
Don't like that one. It is too ordinary or the way he sings it.
But there loads of other lyrics I like.

Baby Knows.

"...She knows how 2 make U feel like your stuff ain't brown 2nite"

chocolatehandles said:

Just what i was gonna say!

the "surgery" line
i don't know if this would be better or a little sick but
maybe the line could have been "when she's making love it like she's giving birth to me"

"I'm gonna cover yo ass with this sheet"

"Turn off that weak jam man, Mr. Happy's here...and we're buggin'"

Dunno what's more cringeworthy - the lyric or the delivery.

jimmynothin said:

Are you kidding? That's one of the best lines in that song! Gives it some of its quirkiness!

I can't comment because out of all of those songs...U'd think that some lyrics wouldn't be in the book of famous quotes....Prince has sang a lot of heart warming and thoughtful songs.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned the infamous, "Like a Brontosaurus, she was packing them in."

Also, I love "Pearls Before the Swine", but the "Can I offer you Baklava, or a bagel with cream cheese?" line almost ruins it for me.

I know. Fair point, but.....

"...She knows how 2 make U feel like your stuff ain't brown 2nite"

I mean, COME ON!!

godyssey said:

Me too, love it!

I love the song $ from Lotusflow3r, but there is a line in it that just drives me crazy:

Standin over there try'n to be gangster/coppin your favorite lean

Seriously, Prince? That terminology died in 1994. Even if I am in the car by myself, I refuse to sing this line.

I've always hated the second rap on "Acknowledge Me", particularly the "titties swinging like a door" line. So crass.

In she's a Peach ... "made her titties bounce" And the whole orgasm sound. Weirds me out
