"Power fantastic / Isn't your life elastic...."

For the longest time, I didn't care for that song because of what I thought was a particularly naff attempt to complete the rhyme.

Wait, that's NOT what he says? Shit.

Not only did I think that's what he said, I was disappointed when I found out it wasn't. I thought the "power fantastic" gave you a greater flexibility, you could reshape your life to fit any situation or desire. Ah well. Now I think it's not just an off rhyme, but not even a particularly interesting one.

Can I Play With You when he says

"I can tell you never really understood,the difference between bad and good"

I thought between bad and good was red riding hood and it didn't help that for a time some boots called the song red riding hood back in the day.

Happiness in its uncut form

Is the feeling I get in your warm, warm

Happy's what I get, WAMPA-DOO, WAMPA-DOO

Happiness, mama, is being with you

I don't know why, but that "WAMPA-DOO" shit made me laugh so hard!!!!

I still think the line in The Latest Fashion that most every place says is "If you thinking about ruling me ya better get abortions"

is really "If you're pregnate about ruling me ya better get abortions"

For years I heard... "If you've got the time//I could use some money//to buy a dirty mind" Makes no sense and when i finally figured it out...DUH!

A buddy of mine for years thought that "I Would Die 4 U" was "Apple-Dapple-Doo"

I had a Mormon friend in the car years ago who didn't cuss, didn't smoke, do drugs, no sex out of marriage when he dated... etc.

Well "Controversy" was playing and he started laughing uncontrollably. Then he asked, "Are they saying - "touch your pussy"?"

Now THAT'S a good one!

Until I joined the org, I thought Prince was singing in Extra Loveable "I want a virgin, baby. I don't think u heard me. I want a virgin, baby" only to learn he was singing "I'm on the verge of rape". And another - in Mountains, I heard "I say, someday, mountains and the sea..." when it's actually "I say it's only mountains and the sea".

.

In "Controversy", I thought he was speaking french saying _(unintelligable) "-Merci"

Oh, I almost forgot my best one:

"So fishy tonight..... The bread is soft; it adds to your sex."

my energy is the call of pleasure...

Awesome!! I was playing Controversy for a newbie friend of mine, and she said, "I like this song, but I don't like how he keeps saying 'Count your pussy'."

As for me, for about four years I thought he was saying, "Starfish," at the end of "Mountains." I kinda wondered if I was correct, but when SOTT came out and there was a song with the word 'starfish' in the title, my smug ass self was like, 'see, I am right about Mountains.'

DAMMIT. Now I can't NOT hear "creamy pies." It not only ruins the song, but also makes me hungry for creamy pies. Grrrrrrrr!

Yeah, it's my favourite one I've heard so far, hopefully the effect will wear off eventually for you

I've remembered one or two of mine, but I can't really be bothered to post them as they will never top that one!

I remember I used to think that Paisley Park was 'This shit is easy, just say u believe and come 2 this place in your heart' rather than 'ADMISSION is easy' haha.

That´s actually a great pick up line.

Have to try this one out real soon. So poetic, so romantic. Especially during a candlelight dinner.

Or right before having sex.

"So fishy tonigt....the bread is soft; it adds to your sex."

Greatest line ever. And sooooo cryptic.

Lately I´ve been thinking that my penis is indeed aimed in the wrong direction.

You might get a slap.

Well, if anyone knows, can you please tell me what the hell he is saying on "Joy in Repetition"? I'm hearing "no one seemed to care from the introverted less looks on most of their faces". What?

It sounds to me like "introverted 'this-is-it' look(s)"
