"My hairdresser's gay."

That line just cracks me the fuck up, because there's so much irony in it.

Maybe not irony. I really never understand what irony means. I was an English major and studied stuff like that, but that lesson never really took, you know? So irony just kinda means nothing and everything sometimes. But I like to use it.

Anyway, so that.

I think what you mean is that it is practically redundant to say a hairdresser is gay.

I lot of people use 'irony' when they mean 'coincidentally.'

Alanis Morissette butchered the term with examples that weren't irony.

No, what I mean is that most straight men don't have hairdressers. Hairdresser isn't a word most straight men would use, so saying, "My hairdresser's gay" is a funny thing to me. He might as well be saying, "Giiiirrrrll, I think my makeup artist is a little light in the loafers."

International lover is a great ballad but I guess I can see how it could be interpreted as quite funny as prince makes it sounds like a parody of cheesy ballads although it is not!

So do you think he goes to the nearest barber shop and gets his hair to look like that?

I'm assuming this question is for me. The answer is: Um, no...

There are a lot. Some are from songs that I love deeply and others are from ones that make me hang my head in shame for listening to.

__________________________________________________________________________

Lovesexy:

"It put my name upon my thigh
It makes me dance, it makes me cry
And when I touch it, racecars burn rubber in my pants"

"Oh, pretty little whip, U got me drippin'
Drippin' all over the floor, the floor
If I come back as a woman
I want a body like yours, a body like yours
Living rooms?
I think, I think U would
I think U wanna play house
Yeah, I think U wanna play house
U don't mind
I think U?uh
I think U want me 2 f?{beep} inside of U
Yea, yeah, I...
U want me 2 sit around your living room, ha ha
Yeah, U...U want me 2 walk right down your halls
Mm hmm
U want me 2 swivel in your love seat
D-don't U, baby?
U want me 2 write my name on your walls"

__________________________________________________________________________

Dead On It (a track that I loathe):

"All the sisters like it when u lick 'em on the knees
Don't believe me?
Try it once then stop, they'll be begging
Please, please, please
What does that have 2 do with the funk?
Nothing, but who's paying the bills?
If u don't wanna lick my knees, I'm sho' your mama will"

"I got a gold tooth, costs more than your house
I got a diamond ring on four fingers, each one the size of a mouse"

__________________________________________________________________________

Almost the entirety of Housequake makes me keel over in laughter, despite the fact that it's one of my favorites.

__________________________________________________________________________

F.U.N.K. (another one that I consider to be stark brilliance):

"You may not like the taste but I'm still gonna stick your face in this funk.
(stick your face in it)"

__________________________________________________________________________

Glam Slam (I consider this one to be one of the worst ones he has ever written):

"Glam Slam thank U ma'am
U really make my day
Glam Slam thank U ma'am
I pray U always stay"

"Heavy feather, flicka nipple
Baby scam water ripple
I don't understand
It means I love U"

Oh! 'Cause that suddenly makes what you just said NORMAL!

__________________________________________________________________________

Pretty much all of Black Sweat is hilarious, even though I think it's awesome as well.

__________________________________________________________________________

Partyman:

"And if it breaks when it bends
U better not put it in"

What the fuck does that even mean?

I agree with these two - I hate 'Dead On It', too, and though I don't hate Glam Slam, I find those lyrics ridiculous.

"I gonna take thish outtamamouf"

The hilarious thing is that someone is not laughing. at. all.

Prince playing the part of the "other woman" as he's rapping over the phone in the song "If A Girl Answers Don't Hang Up".

Vanity: Hello, this is Vanity. Is Jimmy home?

Prince: Yes, but he's taking a shower.

V: Oh, I see. Did he just take out the trash?

P: No, that's somethin' he use 2 do. Now he's taking out me.

V: Oh, I see. Well, tell 'em he left his pants over here last night.

P: That's OK, U keep 'em. He won't be needin' 'em 2 night

V: Oh, what's the matter. Is he going swimming?

P: Why no, we was gonna go but he said he did that last night.

V: Well sugar, I know about a great party. Why don't U bring us your car?

P: So sorry baby, but I never go 2 singles' bars.

V: Singles? Is that what U think? Tramp, I'm datin' your dad.

P: Oh, he died about 7 years back. Now ain't that just 2 bad?

V: Well, that's how we like 'em - tall, stiff and ready. That's positively more than I can say 4 dear Jimmy.

P: That's because he was swallowin' vitamin E. Now he's swallowin' me.

V: Oh, U mean U were swallowin' him. Why don't U just tie a mattress 2 your back?

P: I'm gonna need it cuz if I ever see your face, I'm gonna fall and have a heart attack.

V: All that's gonna fall is the wig off your head, now what U think about that?

P: I think I'd rather wear a wig, than run a motel 4 roaches, ants and lice. Dogs and cats in my hat.

See, this is why Prince should never do another movie.

It all starts with good dialogue, and he can't do that.

"Eye've never seen the moon look so lovely as the night Eye saw it with U
It let me know Eye'd never seen the moon b4
So many speak of the moon as though it had no flaws
But 2 compare it 2 a beauty like Urs would give 1 pause"

the whole moon stuff makes me wanna go to the bathroom...

"Hi-Ho Silver, it's the Bone Ranger" - 18 and over

Brings a tear every time ...

CAT WE NEED YOU TO RAP (Nooooo!)

Let's jam y'all
Let's jam
Don't wait 4 your neighbor
Green eggs and ham

"Yeah right, dance floor is not big enough, fat cow"

All your posts make me smile but I'm sorry I will NEVER get over Animal Kingdom, I'm always still like WTF? Is it a joke? Is he serious?

I mean the line about funky funky bleu cheese I think "oh ok, he joking!" but still, IDK, WTF? "Leave your brothers and sisters in the sea" busts me UP!

If God wanted milk in me
The breast I suck would have a line around the hood

No member of the animal kingdom nurses past maturity
No member of the animal kingdom ever did a thing 2 me
So I don't eat no red meat or white fish
Or funky, funky blue cheese
Were all members of the animal kingdom
Leave your brothers and sisters in the sea

The next time we meet up we need to play that shit to see who cracks up first.

Almost all of Ripogodazippa. The title. You know, English isn't my first mother tongue, so at first I didn't know what Ripopgodazippa means. I thought it was something meaningless. Then I read lyrics...

"Whenever I think about me zippa rippin' so good
All down the body and devil between the thighs
Ripop go zippa and U get a big surprise"

Then I realized what does it mean and my brain was so fucked up. I was like "no way! he couldn't do something that creepy!". Yes, he could and he did.

I remember when I heard "Continental" from the symbol album, I laughed my ass off when he said "That's right, I want all your germs!", , and I kept saying, "oh hell no--he did not just say that shit."

Oh, God! The Continental is good example. When I heard The Continental and I liked it, I didn't know what does title means too. I knew that it can't be about some continental stuff. Then I read the meaning in some internet dictionary... I swear, I couldn't stop and I keep bumping my head on the desk. Sometimes I wonder how did he do that, I mean there wasn't censure in the radio those days?!

The entire symbol album is filled with insanity!

It's one of the reasons I love it so much.

From "Melt With U", : Don't look now, but there's a river of blood. U must have been a virgin. What am guilty of?
