I dont know. I love this song. It's just raw dirty FONK. This is just another of Ps characters. It doesn't creep me out. It's a story, he is telling a story. You may not like it, but that's what it is.

Why is everyone acting like "creep out" is bad thing? It's a GREAT thing. I like it when Prince tries to be creepy or aggressive or mean in his music.

But obviously "Bob George" is meant to be kind of funny, but disturbing as well. I played it for people completely unaware of Prince, and one seasoned guitarist who is into heavy metal and "hard" rock, seemed completely creeped out and said, "Prince must have been on some serious drugs when he did that"

So does he actually (supposedly) kill the woman in the song? Because after he shoots her he tells her to go in there and put on that wig he bought her....

But then there's more gunfire and it seems like he says "gotcha" and "gotcha again"...I don't have the ability to hear the song now so I could be wrong...

He shoots to scare her apparently, then shoots to kill after the wig.
