Washington Wives - U Can't F-- with Us

I never noticed this before, at the 14:10 minute mark on "U Gotta Shake Something"
Interesting for Prince to comment on the Washington Wives, or P.M.R.C. as they were officially known - Parents Music Resource Center. That lobbyist group branded him one of the filthiest acts in rock in 1985, and the discovery of the masturbation lyric in "Darling Nikki" by Tipper Gore apparently started the whole record labelling thing.
Strange I just now noticed this after hundreds of listens.

Incl:

Darling Nikki,
Sugar Walls,
Nasty Girl

I would love to see this whole list again, I have forgot the name of this list compiled by the P.M.R.C....
