I'm sure everyone knows the line I speak of from I Love U In Me, but I've never been sure what he means by it. Surely he didn't mean it to be a silly throwaway line, so what the hell is he talking about?

Precise, to the point.....and doing your best to not nick a stray vein.

In this context, "surgery" means rather something like "cure" and "healing" than cosmetic surgery.

oh my goodness i hate this lyric it just completely ruins the mood of the song for me

When two are in love...playing doctor could be a life or death thing.

how do u mean?

Let's just say "Yummy".

In sugery, they (doctors) go inside people, Like making love, you go inside. Thats how I put it.

It's well known that Prince likes to anesthetize his women to a state of unconsciousness before slipping his ding-a-ling in.

I think he just needed a 3 sylable word to ryhme with free.
If it had been me i would have said "so sugary" but really emphasise like "sugareeeee"

No,I shall not give up the day job.

It means that it precise, she does exactly what he needs, no messing.

Either that or she's got razor blades stashed somewhere fruity

I thought it had to to with sterilizing everything? you know, with boiling water and so.
And of course, always use green sheets

alcohol gel AND soap and water...the gel won't such c.diff and MRSA won't be had by soap ...no wonder the guys always yelpibg and shrieking, he's probably got some nasty cross contamination

Well I guess it's a passionate thing...When U think of your lover being your "Everything," if U needed surgery..I would probably try to make it a romantic operation. If Prince was my husband...I'd trust him to be my surgeon..if that is what he wanted me to do. If Prince accidentally killed me for some reason, I would die where I wanted to.

This is of course the sweetest way to look at the line. "Going within your partner's spirit." Loving them through and through.

Tame said:

and then of course there's the other side of the coin; the fucked up story here in the UK where the surgeon who was having an affair with his secretary tried to poison her into having a misscarriage of thier affair-child....his wife is standing buy him during his prison time as he earns a lot of money...and I'm pretty sure that those are HER words

This is the true answer

Either that or he can't shag without wearing surgical gloves...

It takes skill to be a good surgeon. It takes skill to be a good lover. If you botch the job in either sense, you could ruin things for yourself and the other person.

She likes it deeply penetrative.

ernestsewell said:

that's how I understood it as well.

I cant believe this line is so hard to understand. I got it the first time I heard it when I was only 17!
Surgeons have to be very accurate, caring, patient, delicate, precise, detailed, and darn near FLAWLESS...
Anyone putting this together yet?

Not sure why, but the above line made me think of this video...

Also, correct me if I'm wrong... but I think I read that Prince uses surgical grade stitches to sew his female partner's love hole into a more accommodating receptacle. It's all starting to make sense.

Maybe that lyric is genius after all.

All joking aside...I think what Prince is trying to convey is that, like surgery, sex with him requires a consent form, he has a team who help him with holding bits open and sterilising his equipment , you may feel a little tender after and there is a calculated risk of injury or in rare cases death.

But I could be wrong
