Just been annoyed by the following over the weekend, made me think of other painful lyrics that are either strange, downright annoying, or grammatically beyond correct:

"Come swallow the pride and joy of the ivory tower." A Love Bizarre

(WTH is that even supposed to mean?)

"Before the day I carried u thru the bridal path door..." Call My Name

(Reminds me of Inigo Montoya: "I do not think that word means what you think it means.")

Others:

"When we make love, it's like surgery." I Love U In Me

Thoughts?

Bridle Path is an upscale path of Toronto where Prince and Mani lived while there were married.

I actually did some mixing with my band in a studio in Mississauga, not too far from there, called Metalworks, which is where Prince did a lot of the Musicology album.

FixUrLifeUp - In London you're sure to be toast (made worse by the gesture he does whilst singing it)

The Breakdown - Reminiscing now I just like a fool (the entire first verse is so contrived it just makes me cringe. The metering of the lyrics plays a big part in this)

When 2 R In Love - Their bodies shiver at the mere contemplation, of penetration. Let alone the actual act

Never knew that, but his music is littered with phrases that lend themselves to double-entendres. In this case, it doesn't work, especially since it seems that only a handful of die-hards (no offense intended) would ever make the connection.

i'm guessin that swallow the pride and joy from the ivory tower would translate into ---> swallowing cum or babies (pride and joy) from a penis lol

just a guess.

"Looking out the window of a big black limosine. Thinking about your thighs wondering If I can get right in between"-"Underneath the Cream"

The thought of Prince cruising around in a limo thinking of someone's crotch always made me cringe and laugh as well.

Big Chick

"Did U get the tape I sent U? I thought it'd be better in a song
Better than the used condom U sent me. Baby, that was wrong"

Such a cool song. but that line kills me

"Thank God this ain't Monopoly - you'd make us all go back to start."

a.) Monopoly has no "start"

b.) going back to "Go" is actually a good thing

That's one of his worst, certainly. It's so bad that maybe it's something that's actually happened to him.

Dead On It, the verse where he talks about licking knees I don't know if I aboslutely love it or hate it.

I swear to God, Prince has written songs over the years about every possible sexual situation ever.

His back catalouge is like a musical version of the kamasutra.

I heard that Prince can rewrite the Kama Sutra in half as many words.

haha! tbh I don't really doubt that he could re-write it in half as many words. He was probably right when he wrote that lyric.

Although, the letter count would probably be significantly low too. no that 4 sure.

I think my all time least favorite goes something like...

.

"If I were a dolphin would you listen to me then? Would you let me be your friend? Would you let me in?

.

You can cut off all my fins, but to your ways I will not bend. I'd die before I let you tell me how to swim."

.

.

deep thoughts.
