"Darling Nikki" question The lyrics:
"I met her in a hotel lobby Masturbating with a magazine"
So this chick in the hotel lobby was masturbating... as in, she was using a magazine to play with herself? Or she was masturbating while reading a dirty magazine? Or is Prince saying that *he* was masturbating with a magazine when he met Darling Nikki in the lobby?
I hope I don't sound dense. I just don't understand this lyric for some reason. | |

I always took it as him saying she was in a hotel lobby masturating while reading a magazine when he met her. And i always wondered why somebody would be masterbating in a hotel lobby to begin with LOL I'm not a human

I always took it to mean she was doing it with a rolled up magazine, but of course was never sure. One could go either way with it. | |

. That's the whole point of the song. Because she's a freak...who loves to f*ck and play with herself. | |

I'm so old that I remember housewife Tipper Gore on TV testifying during congressional hearings about Darling Nikki which then led to the Parental Advisory on albums. | |

Isn't the ambiguity part of the fun of this song - it could be any of the above given that the singer then succumbs to this woman both freaks on this side? | |

That's the image I always had in my head. But I think it's left deliberately ambiguous. | |
