If I was your 1 and only friend would you run 2 me if somebody beat u even if that somebody was me?

My brother thought Prince was a cokehead because he thought the line from "1999" was - "Got a line in my pocket".

Imagine a woman jumping out of a plane. After about a minute, she frantically pulls at a cord on her outfit. Then, out of nowhere, Prince swims through the air and cups her ear... "You know you want me like a new parachute." - This Could B Us ...

i misheard a lot of the 1999 song.

correct verse:

"war is all around us,my mind says prepare 2 fight."

WHAT I HEARD:

"war is all around us, my mom and sis prepare 2 fight."

correct verse:

"but be4 i let that happen,i'll dance my life away."

WHAT I HEARD:

"but be4 i let that happen,i did spot it half the way."

yes..reading is fundamental.

the beautiful ones

"If I told you,baby ,that I'm so in love with you"

"If I told you baby that I'm so alone and wicked".

I was 10 lol

Funk N Roll- "Another motherfucker, youre committing a crime!"

Ears needed syringing

LRC - 'You must be an imbecile' instead of 'limousine'. I was 13 and it was a copy of a copy is my excuse...

I could never take the place of your man:

When I was little I used to hear "oh honey baby that's okay, u know and I know..."

instead of "Oh honey baby that's a dead end, u know n I know..."

that we wouldnt b satisfied...

Sometimes I still wish he really did say 'okay'

^ He doesn't say OK?!? U live and learn.

Let's Go Crazy- 'I'm not gonna let THE ELEVATOR', is what I heard. Didn't know anything about this 'DELEVATOR' character until, years after the fact.

"She's got a Datsun in the street"

Uptown

Don't know if this is an intentional lyric or not but on "Sexmesexmenot" when he sings "Everybody that came 2 see me dance" I hear "Should skin me" afterwards...

If it really is the lyric then that's weird as hell, but if not I'd like to know what he actually is saying.

"Everybody that came 2 see me dance (Should skin me)"

I've played that line on itunes about 10 times alread and that's got to be what Prince is saying right?

Yes, I've drove myself insane (literally) by listening to The Chocolate Invasion and rewinding and rewinding and rewinding on several songs to figure out his little lyrical tidbits.

I've gotta say I love this album though,

An oldie but a goodie...

"Everybody wants to fuck the greedy bitch!"

Back in 1990, I played the tape for my ex and she was convinced those were the lyrics to Graffiti Bridge.

It took me 25 years and someone on the org to realize that at the beginning of Gett Off Prince says "club mix" and not "bob mix"

There's another thing I realized I got wrong just the other day but I can't remember what it was now

4 realz??? That's HUGE

I cube Pi in my mind thinking about the Poom Poom.

Prince is a freaking math savant.

In "All My Dreams," instead of Norma Jean, I used to hear, "Captain Crunch, Normandy, Sex and Cheerios." It even led me to check out the beaches of Normandy and want to go. Hell, I still want to go!

For years I didn't know what he was saying in Let's Go Crazy line:

Look for a purple "banana" 'til they put us in the truck....

I thought he was sayin "entity" instead of banana.
