Something about a little box with a
Mirror and a tongue inside
What she told me then got me so hot
I knew that we could slide

Always wondered this. lol

Use your imagination. What do you the little box stands for?

If you really need it spelled out in that much more detailed there really isn't much hope for you. Not sexy at all.

(Ya know...mirrors.....seeing things U normally can't....)

That should help, and that's all I'm going to say about that- like Forrest.

Gett Off 23 positions and a one night stand.............

Im calling ur bluff U guys dont know what she told

Right! That's the beauty of music. Sometimes people want to dissect it all, taking all the mystery out of it. Bet they eat the same thang for lunch every day too!!

Boring.

Considering she could have been a very kinky chick and could have said lots of hot things, I would say it is an amusing question lol no need to climb aboard the harsh train

Good question! I've often wondered what the 'official' name of that object she is referring to is. Sounds like some Victorian sex toy! LOL

I think Prince was probably alot more kinky in reality than i imagined him to be.

He loved verbal erotics.

I always thought this was obvious. But for the benefit of people who didn't get it, I'll explain... This girl recently came into possession of a jack-in-the-box. When she spun the mechanism, the box opened but instead of "Jack" popping out, a small mirror with a severed human tongue attached came out. Prince didn't know what to make of this but when she told him how cheaply she had gotten this special jack-in-the-box, he was instantly turned on. You see, Prince was a notorious cheapskate and just the idea of saving money, even if it was on something as hideous as a severed human tongue attached to a mirror, turned him on. So now you know.

I'm sorry - I went deaf after he said "tongue."

How is this possible? To not know how kinky P was, I mean . It was all right there from the beginning. Anyway, to answer the op's question - let's just say "23 positions in a one night stand" was now at 22.

Let me start off by saying I have a Dirty Mind and I am a freak of nature, but still I agree with the OP that I don't really know/understand what Prince meant here.

If the box is a metaphor for pussy then I can imagine a tongue inside is a reference to cunnilingus, but how does one get a mirror inside as well???

I know it sounds crazy, it was all there but in my young girl fantasies he was more like a gentle, caring , tender , sophisticated lover...not all freaky, shocking sex games and S & M stuff, ...kills my young girl fantasies a little, i admit..lol. But he had probably seen and done it all..so I guess I can understand how it might have taken alot to get him going in the end. Love him ALWAYS xoxo he will always be my 1st crush .

Don't believe the hype.

The mirror is not “inside” the tongue is ... she wants to watch with the mirror . Now someone explain what a purple banana is and why we need to look for it until they put us in a truck ... and while yer at it ... why would prince think anyone would listen to him if he was a dolphin?

Truth be told...

That one's easy...purple bananas don't exist, so if someone was looking for them you'd think they were crazy. Thus a truck would come and take them to the asylum. By asking you to look for a nonsense object until you are hauled away, Prince is asking you to...go crazy.

Never saw the movie Barbarella but started watching it last week and when she mentioned "Duran Duran" I thought to myself.....hey, that's a group not a person! Duh, I guess that is where the group got its name.
