The little 1 will escort U
2 places within your mind
The former is red, white, and blue
The ladder is purple, come on and climb

As a music arranger, I often get to the lyrics later... The Lyrics just hit me!!! What a gift that keeps on giving in this song...

Peace!!

Is he talking about a pill? I mean, of course he is...

That might be too easy, so it's probably wrong.

All the little babies sing around the world

I love this piece:

A government of love and music boundless in its unifying power
A nation of art 2 production
Sharing ideas, a shower of flowers

My Fave Prince song ever, I would love to own that Lyric/doodle page, doesn't Jill Jones have it? I remember seeing it in a video a while ago.

This must have been written before he recorded it, as on the album it is 'A wonderful trip through OUR time'

Really? never knew that, I'm in the UK so we didn't get the Purple Rain tour

Cool he published a song from his next album in a tour book for his previous album, before releasing it.

I always thought "the little 1" referred to himself in those lyrics.

He's got his patriotism blending into the purple ladder.
