Those aren't crazy because I can understand perfectly what he's talking about. I would say The War. Underground Metropolis (or was it under water?) Microchip in your neck... Yeah, that's pretty crazy. [Edited 2/6/15 3:03am] | |

Yeah I agree with SuperSoulFighter. Those lyrics are just fine given the context of a super honry and freaky time. Nothing crazy about that. I get it. But yeah the War is kinda spooky and full of paranoia, kind of Matrix style. It's kind of like going into a haunted house. So maybe not the craziest but pretty scary! | |

I don't think Prince has that many crazy lyrics, in the sense that most of his songs are pretty comprehensible without too much thought. There are definitely some which require more head-scratching to get to the bottom of, like 'The Ballad of Dorothy Parker', but I can't think of any which make you go "what the holy hell is he on about?" I'm curious to see if anyone on this thread will prove me wrong. I hope to be pleasantly surprised! | |

Bob George the song was crazy. Pretzelbodylogic has "now we're both too sleepy to get the gun." Little Red Corvette I realized as an adult may not be about a car but a lady's... I didn't understand how a beautiful song like Circle of amour turned into Circle of Sex at the end. There are many like "she had so many devices everything that money could buy". There are many more.

I've thought a bit more and have come up with some of Prince's more 'wacky' lyrics:
-The chorus to 'Starfish and Coffee' is charmingly odd. -'Annie Christian'. The concept is weird, and I'm still not sure what "I'll live my life in taxi cabs" means. -'Boom' has some nice imagery. I don't why he's singing about mushroom canopies, but I like it. -I love the vanity and boasting in 'Dead On It' and 'Prettyman'. Totally mental. [Edited 2/7/15 20:48pm] | |

Come, with its lines about a "chocolate mashed potato Fender jazz" is also a strange one. | |

Oh wee sha sha koo koo yeah! All the hippies sing together! . Soda fizzin on the lawn . In a world overrun by tourists, tourists, with 89 flowers on their back, inventors of the accujack, what no flash again, ure all just a bunch of double drags, born 2 teach your kids that love is bad, having a ball while their brain is on vacation. Mama r u listening, no child is bad at the beginning, they only imitate their atmosphere. . Race cars burn rubber in my pants . Technicolor junkie in a funky square. . R u going to get in the bath, or do I have 2 drag u. . Honey, I got a sugarcane, that I want to lose but can you stand the pain. [Edited 2/18/15 15:13pm] Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name | |

I'd have to say that this was one of his great lyrics in my opinion; nothing crazy about it - just a very intense lyric signalling need to the point of possession. Wouldn't you love to love me? | |

I know how it feels to have the person you love and trust the most hurt you then you're left wondering who to turn to. This line is genius, one of his best! Everybody stop on the 1...GOOD GOD! Uhh! | |
