Blue Limousine

7:30 - he said that he'd be here by 6
It's lookin' dirty, I guess he's up 2 his old tricks
He likes 'em pretty, he likes 'em in their lingerie
It's such a pity, I bought a camisole 2 day ... boo hoo, boo hoo

7:30 and there's still no sign of my baby's blue limousine

7:31 - I planned 4 him 2 spend the night
We could've had some fun, pretty men, they never treat U right
They talk so dirty, they get U all worked up inside
It's your car, but everybody else always gets 2 drive

7:31 and there's still no sign of my baby's blue limousine

He's got a white one, he's got a yellow one
He's got a black one with a body obscene
Still no sign of my baby's blue limousine {x2}

7:32 - where can my baby be?
I must be a fool 2 let somebody do this 2 me
I can't stop him, wherever he parks his car is alright
But he'll be parkin' with a dent in the side if he stands me up 2 night

7:32 and there's still no U, my baby blue limousine
Baby blue limousine {x4}

He's got a white one, he's got a yellow one
He's got a black one with a body obscene
Still no sign of my baby's blue limousine

He treats U special like U're the only one
Then your girlfriend tells U that he's havin' big fun
Still no sign of my baby's blue limousine

He's so pretty, he's so nice
He'll make U feel like U're in a paradise
Still no sign of my baby's blue limousine {x2}

He like 'em pretty, he like big titties
He likes 'em in their lingerie
Still no sign of my baby's blue limousine

He's all black, he's all white
Everybody's gotta jam 2 night

They turn me on

CHORUS:
I don't care where we go

The Belle Of St. Mark

David Coleman - Cello on Oliver's House

The Belle of St. Mark was a frail but a passionate creature
Ebony hair and eyes a deep blue-green
The Belle of St Mark wore clothes that belonged 2 his father
Even though he was only 17
CHORUS:
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
It tears me apart whenever I hear him cry
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
And if he doesn't love me I think I'll probably die

U can tell from expressions that he makes public
That he suffers from a badly broken heart
He smiles as he feeds the afternoon pigeons
But he cries as he walks the night streets of St. Mark

CHORUS

The Belle of St. Mark, he don't talk 2 strangers, he's so mysterious
His erotic persuasion provokes me like no other man
The fire I have 4 him is undoubtedly serious
I need 2 make him see that he needs love 2 forget
And if anyone can help him, I can
I can help, I can help U

His Paris hair, it blows in the warm Parisian air
That blows whenever his Paris hair is there
The woman that hurt him surely must have trouble sleeping
Cuz the Belle of St. Mark is a beauty extraordinaire

Oh, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
It tears me apart whenever I hear him cry
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
And if he doesn't love me I think I'll probably die

Ooh, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
It tears me apart whenever I hear him cry
Ooh, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with the Belle of St. Mark
And if he doesn't love me I think I'll probably die
And if he doesn't love me I think I'll probably die
And if he don't... I'll die

Sugar Walls written by Alexander Nevermind

Sugar Walls

My sugar walls
Where I come from there's a place called Heaven
That's a place where all the good children go
The houses are of silver, the streets are gold
But there's more where U come from - my sugar walls

My sugar walls {x2}

Blood races 2 your private spots
Lets me know there's a fire
U can't fight passion when passion is hot
Temperatures rise inside my sugar walls

CHORUS:
Let me take U somewhere U never been
I can show U things U never seen
I can make U never wanna fall in love again
Come spend the night inside my sugar walls

Take advantage, it's alright
I feel so alive when I'm with U
Come and feel my presence, it's reigning 2night
Heaven on earth inside my sugar walls

CHORUS

I can tell U want me (My sugar walls)
It's impossible 2 hide
Your body's on fire, admit it
Come inside
My sugar walls

My...My sugar walls
Come inside my sugar walls
My sugar walls
My sugar walls
Come spend the night inside my sugar walls

Have U ever been in love?
I can make U never wanna fall in love again
Don't U wanna spend the night?





Easton collaborated with Prince on controversial track "Sugar Walls," written by Prince under the pseudonym "Alexander Nevermind". The track and its accompanying video were banned in some regions due to its sexually risque lyrics and was one of several songs cited by Tipper Gore on her Filthy Fifteen list in her efforts to introduce mandatory warning labelling of explicit musical albums.



Although Easton's video clip for "Sugar Walls" did not in itself feature any controversial content, some music-video broadcasters refused the video airplay because of the sexual imagery of the song's lyrics. Televangelist Jimmy Swaggart constantly criticized the song on his television program when it was first released.

A version of the song performed by Prince himself is rumored to exist.

Yes it was another electric date,

Sheila E was in the audience too, it was cool how he dedicated the song 2 her

Rel 8.11.1984
When released as a single, the song became Prince's second number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100, and also topped the two component charts, the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs[1] and Hot Dance Club Play charts,[2] as well as becoming a UK Top 10 hit. The B-side was the lyrically controversial "Erotic City".

The song was also notable for opening with a funeral-like organ solo with Prince giving the "eulogy" for "this thing called life." That eulogy ends with a distinctive drum machine pattern and then quickly becomes a full hard rock number with heavy guitar, bass and keyboards. The song's percussion was programmed with the venerable Linn LM-1 drum machine, an instrument frequently used in many of Prince's songs.

Even though released during the Parade era
it was intended for Apollonia 6 album

That could have been a much better album, Especially if Vanity continued with V6
and by this song I get a cool image of what V6 or A6 would have been like as a protege group during the Parade era


Manic Monday

6:00 already, I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin' Valentino by a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can't be late cuz then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days when U wish your bed was already made
CHORUS:
It's just another manic Monday
Wish it was Sunday
Cuz that's my fun-day
My I-don't-have-2-run day
It's just another manic Monday

Have 2 catch an early train, got 2 be 2 work by 9
And if I had an aeroplane I still couldn't make it on time
Cuz it takes me so long just 2 figure out what I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train but the boss is already there

CHORUS

All of my nights, why did my lover
Have 2 pick last night 2 get down (Last night, last night)
Doesn't it matter that I have 2 feed the both of us
(Doesn't it matter, both of us)
Employment's down (Employment's down)
He tells me in his bedroom voice:
"C'mon honey, let's go make some noise"
Time it goes so fast (When U're having fun)

CHORUS
Wish it was Sunday
Cuz that's my fun-day
It's just another manic Monday© 1985 Controversy Music - ASCAP

There is a studio jam called White Girls where the lyrics from Ice Cream Castles & Erotic City are used, you hear Prince near the end saying something to Susannah

The Starr ★ Company

Ice Cream Castles" is the opening track from The Time's third album, Ice Cream Castle. The track was one of the last songs recorded for the album, being cut in late January 1984, along with "My Drawers". The song was composed by Prince and Morris Day, Day provided lead vocals and Jesse Johnson played guitar on the recording. Prince played all the other instruments.

ICE CREAM CASTLES
We are young, we are free on earth 2gether
Let's fall in love
U are fine, U are white, I am of color
Let's fall in love
Ice cream castles in the summertime
Ice cream castles in the summer

I want U, U want me, we want each other
Is that so wrong?
It's raining, mad sisters, why can't they realize
That it won't be long?

We're all ice cream castles in the summertime
Ice cream castles in the summer

Let's do something soon (Let's do something {repeat})

We are young, we are free, let's come 2gether
Before the end
I am blue, U are 2, what could be better?
Let's make friends

We're all ice cream castles in the summertime
Ice cream castles in the summertime
We're all ice cream castles in the summer
Ice cream castles when we fall
Ice cream castles in the summertime
Summertime {x3}

Is that what U need?

20) EXT. PRINCE'S HOUSE -- NIGHT

Prince WHIPS down the street, cuts his
motor, coasts up the drive. He comes to
a stop against a wooden gate. His house
is a nondescript, one-family structure
with a wide front porch. He lives in a
neat and tidy, homogeneous, lower middle-
class neighborhood whose occupants are
hard-working type fiercely protective of
their privacy.

He climbs the steps to the porch, opens
the front door...

...his mothers SCREAM is like ice in his
veins. Fear trickles into the hollows
of his body like cold water, His pain
commands him to move, but the impulse
short circuits somewhere at the waist,
leaving his legs twitching
uncontrollably. Then another SCREAM
from his mother, and his father's voice
now, LOUD and FURIOUS--

FATHER (O.S.)
Listen to me! You come home
when I say come home! You've
got no business in the
streets!

WHACK! His mother SCREAMS -- Prince
BURSTS into the room.


(21) INT. Prince's LIVING ROOM -- NIGHT


Prince's MOTHER is at the far side of
the living room CRYING uncontrollable.
She's in her early 40's, a dark-haired,
faded beauty, with large, wild, anxious
eyes. There's a detectable scent of
liquor in the air, and her slurred
speech pins her as the source.

His FATHER is in his late 40's, a squat,
but solidly built black man, with a
cherubic face, and graceful expressive
hands.

He's upon her now, WHACKING! at her
horribly, trying to get to her face--

FATHER
You do what I say, do you hear
me?! You've got to keep this
place clean! You here, no
place else!

MOTHER
You're crazy!

WHACK!

MOTHER
Asshole!

WHACK!

MOTHER
Motherfucker!!!

The Father lunges, WHACKS! her across
the face. She topples to the floor, a
lamp CRASHES to the ground. Prince cuts
through the room, lunges desperately in
front of him--

PRINCE
(pleading)
Please, Dad...she's heard you.
She's had enough!

His Mother drags herself up along the
wall--

MOTHER
(hysterical)
He's trying to kill me! He's
crazy! Look what he's doing
to me!

PRINCE
(tearfully)
Dad, please ... she's--

WHACK! Prince's head snaps back, his
feet lift from the floor, his body
CRASHES in a heap by the door...





Stunned SILENCE. Prince, flat on his
back, fights vertigo with everything
he's got. His Mother lets out a YELP,
rushes into the bedroom, SLAMS the door.
His Father stands motionless, sullen--

FATHER
Get up...you ain't hurt.

Prince opens his Mouth, BLOOD gushes
from a gash in his tongue. He hoists
himself up slowly, using the wall for
support. He moves into the kitchen,
disappears down the basement steps.

BACKSTAGE
as Morris and The Time pass Prince on
their way to the stage--

MORRIS
Why don't you stay awhile, see
how it's done.

The Band Members bust up -- but Prince
ignores them, then--

MC
Ladies and gentlemen -- please
welcome The Time.

Joseph E. Ferraro ... First Avenue M.C.

18A) INT. CLUB -- NEAR STAGE -- NIGHT

MORRIS and The Time rip into a funk tune
called "Jungle Love." Their stranglehold
on the audience is instantaneous.
Morris struts across the stage like a
panther, playing to the audience with a
relish. His eyes fastened on Prince --
his pride umistakable.


But he's gone. Her eyes scan the room
frantically -- catches a glimpse of him
leaving. She takes a sudden step, then
stops, paralyzed with indecision. Jill
regards ger coldly.


MORRIS meanwhile is beside himself.
Some gorgeous, dark-haired babe, eyes
wide as saucers was starlng at him from
the bar. Prince has left, and this girl
is his. He motions to Jerome, and they
direct their act in her direction.

JILL gazes at Vanity, fidgets intensely,
suspicious and resentful of her. She
glances up and notices Morris, look.
She seizes upon an idea, forces a
friendly smile, taps Vanity on the
shoulder--

JILL
Hey ...

She points to the stage. Vanity looks
at Morris, and he goes crazy,
entertaining her with his own special
blend of showmanship. The CROWD loves
it! Vanity is held a moment, but her
thouchts are elsewhere. She finally
comes to a decision, pulls away, cuts
through the club.

On 26th and 27th March 1983, during the 2nd leg of [Prince]'s "1999"-Tour, [Prince] spends two days at Hollywood Sunset Sound to work with [Morris Day] and [Jesse Johnson] on tracks for THE TIME's third album. This was the first time, that some members of band were involved in the production process. They cut Jungle love, My summertime thang and an impromptu jam entitled Cloreen bacon skin, which was only released by [Prince] on his 1998 [Crystal Ball] album. My summertime thang finally didn't make it on this release, but a re-recorded version surfaced on THE TIME's 1990 reunion album [Pandemonium].

On 4th October 1983, the new THE TIME line-up premiered live at First Avenue in Minneapolis. [Jerome Benton] introduced the show, enlisting the help of several bikini-clad models. He also did a soul-preacher routine, begging the audience for donations and passing a plate through the audience for their contributions to a charity fund. THE TIME played an 8-song set that includes two at this time previously unknown tracks - Jungle love and The bird.

"All jams by Morris Day, except 'Jungle love' written by Morris Day & Jesse Johnson" listed the songwriting credits on the album cover. However, Ice cream castles, Jungle love and The bird were registered as a collaboration by [Prince] (as Jamie Starr) with [Morris Day]. All other songs registered solely to [Prince] (as Jamie Starr). [Jesse Johnson] stated in an later interview, that he wrotes Jungle love and that he was removed from the credits when he decided to left THE TIME in June 1984. His claim is substantiated, because in May 1984, when the songs initially were registered to ASCAP, [Jesse Johnson] was listed together with [Prince] (as Jamie Starr) and [Morris Day] as co-writer of Jungle love and The bird, but his name was omitted in July 1984 by changing the songwriting credits on both songs.

(22) BASEMENT -- HALLWAYS AND BEDROOM -- NIGHT

A naked LIGHT BULB snaps ON. It dangles
like a pendulum, casting strange
shadows. The basement is partitioned
off into a series of rooms,
interconnected by a labyrinthine
coimbination of passages. An old washer
and dryer stand in the corner.

Prince descends the steps slowly. He
comes through a door, closes it behind
him. He moves down a narrow passageway,
enters a small cramped BEDROOM.


He closes the door and locks it behind
him. MOONLIGHT filters in throuch the
cacement windows. The total effect is
like entering a womb, a deep dark
chamber of security and safety.

Lying heavily onto his bed, he sighs
long and deep, his eyes piercing the
darkness...
