I don't normally do appreciation threads but recently rediscovered "Glass Cutter". I love it! The guitar, the drums, everything is perfect and so funky! Has this song been forgotten about or what? It's a shame it didn't make it on an album. When was it recorded anyway?

I still play it. I love it. But my old laptop crashed and when my stuff was recovered, I lost the end of the song.

2006?

It was streamed in the Glam Slam room of NPGMC on October 31, 2004 (along with San Jose Jam) and later made available as a paid download (April, 2005).

I always presumed it was new at the time. Sounds like it. Something between Musicology and 3121.

One of his better songs from that period.

This is like Wall of Berlin's brother.... Brilliant!

I remember liking the song, "Glass Cutter, " although I have only heard it a couple of times.

Cutting Glass is fun...I have made three things that I still own.

~A lamp stained glass shade.

~A candle holder

~A Christmas Zabre."

Great track, very funky, one of the better NPGMC songs.

GLASSCUTTER

Yeah...

This is the story 'bout a one and only mother
There never was before and there never'll be another
Heck-a motor scooter, so fine U wanna shoot her
Dressed like butter, holdin' a cup o'glass cutter

Glass cutter

Oh yeah

This is the jam about a purple fantasy
Every man know it's how it's s'posed 2 be
So sharp (sharp) make a brother heart go flutter (flutter flutter)
Dress holdin' onto a cup or glass cutter

Glass cutter

This about as hard as Arabian math
Water drops jumpin' when ya takin' a bath
The towel unraveled till it looks like gravel
All a brother can do is just laugh, uh

But under his breath he gon' mutter
But under his breath he gon' mutter
But under his breath he gon' mutter
"Baby got a cup o'glass cutter"

This about a mother got a brother sprung
I looked up the word "heaven", saw a picture of her tongue
If she was a song, she'd be sung
'stead of rhyming I'd be a singer so I could brung
A parmesan, cheddar cheese
Please, U better believe she'd get what she want
Cuz I want just what she got
I'm a new car, and she's a lot, a whole lotta woman

Girl got a case'o 2 fine

She got it bad and that's good
I'm gonna tell her 2 her face, cuz another brutha wouldn't
I don't wanna make her heartbeat go flutter

Dressed like butter, cup or glass cutter {x2}

U make my heart go flutter, glass cutter {x3}

lyrics...dtt

I know the internet is dead so Prince can you release this with a newspaper for those who missed this track or lost it on a crashed hard drive like me

I thought so too since I figured the song was about a woman with hard nipples.

same. I thought we all agreed on that when the track came out. hence the reference to the dress holding them.

Couple o' glass cutters? I guess that would make since. I thought it was about a woman with a tight ass - Like when they say, you can bounce a quarter off of it?

I've never heard of an expression concerning an ass that could cut glass.

Good point.

It's about hard nipples!
