"I'm six feet in the grave! I'm six feet in the grave!"

AaronFantastic said:

There ain't nothing wrong with that line. It's kinda funny.

Just pick any line from "Jughead"...that would take some beating

---

The ending o "do me, baby"

and, yeah, just about any line from "jughead"

A line I don't want to repeat here. It annoys me that much.

i forget just how rotten it is, because i so rarely listen to it. i did tonight, so i thought i would mark the occasion by declaring my distaste for it

AaronFantastic said:

The ONE time I tried to listen to it I couldn't make it through 10 seconds of that one

Holocaust aside, many lived and died
But when all truth is told
Would u rather b dead or b sold?

-Muse 2 the pharoah

Jasper said:

and then he says "sold"



question: considering the race issues dealt with in his recent work (and on that album), is he throwing a bone and saying "okay so maybe slavery isn't the worst thing in the world. it may take a holocaust, but there are worse things" or am i reading it completely wrong? am i dense?

AaronFantastic said:

Why I think it´s completely He compares two racial groups that sufferd big time, but he takes away the biggest suffering from one group (..holocaust aside...) and still compares it to the worst thing African American people sufferd from (slavery). Then to me you can´t compare it anymore...but that´s my humble opinion...

Peace.

Jasper said:

This thread is SO gonna go off in a new direction now

I don't think he's comparing the two. Whenever slavery is talked about, you always get the inevitable comparison to the holocaust. IMO, he's saying "let's look @ slavery for what it is w/o comparing it to any other tragedy, without saying 'it wasn't as bad as...'"

Holocaust aside... = let's put this one over here for a minute & just deal w/ this other thing. Let's look @ slavery for what it is, not through the filter of any other tragedy...

CalhounSq said:

You got a point there! What it is with this line, you can look at it from different views. I will listen to it again and maybe I will change my mind.

we're hooked up now, I can try her
I can put my load in the dryer


On an otherwise very mature album, this line really
stinks. It's horrible. The only way I can conceive
of him coming up with that line is if he has put the
song straight to dat, first take, as he came up with
the lyrics.

There's a mountain
And it's mighty high
You cannot see the top
Unless you fly.


That's pretty embarrassing!

CalhounSq said:

sounds good to me!

That baklava shit on One Nite Alone made me laugh and then cringe in shame.

If I came back as a dolphin, would you listen to me then?


Erm, lemme think. ... no?

Girl u know u got the crazy flava (Acknowledge Me)

That's a pretty duckin'lame line!

"You can always change your underwear...yeah,you can always change your underwear" from "Come" (1994)


I've always felt that those lyrics were kinda...um..."offensive"? What do you think,ladies?

DavidEye said:

i dunno about offensive, but staying within that song... the line about his tallywacker has always struck me as pretty retarded

AaronFantastic said:

2 things:

1. I HATE the word "tallywacker", that shit makes me CRINGE!! :X

2. David, how on earth could this be offensive? What's wrong w/ changing wet drawz???

CalhounSq said:

1. When does Prince mention the word "tallywacker"? I must have missed that part...lol...

2. I just think it sounds kinda silly to encourage your lady to "come" and don't worry about getting your panties wet because "you can always change them"...lol...why would she even be wearing panties in the FIRST PLACE??

AaronFantastic said:

Yup.

I would add as well that by saying "many lived and died" and then asking "would you rather be dead or be sold" it's illustrating that what a ridiculous choice it is to make--that there is nothing to be gained from comparing the two. Cuz at the end of the day many lived and died.

DavidEye said:

2. Okay, I'll give you the panties one though I'm still trying to figure out what exactly is offensive about it. Isn't it more silly/unnecessary than offensive?

1. It don't mean your rep cuz U kiss in a restaurant
(Come)
It don't mean your rep just cuz me tallywhacker suckin' is all U want
(Come)
All it means it that the 1 that Come before me never made U Come
U should do that baby
(Come)
