U Want Me

Lyrics swiped from NPGMC site:

By the way u look at me
eye can tell u fancy me
as sure as there's salt in the sea
u want me

By the way u came 4 me
and whispered things so lovingly
blah blah blah - we were meant 2 be
u just want me

Sublime in the rhyme that comes from thee
how flowers held up next 2 me...
prove that all in all is no theory
u want me

Spoken word - unnecessary
u and eye were born 2 marry
immaculate and duty-free
u want me

When eye wake up next 2 u
eye reminisce on what we do
any morning u please
u want me

Pendulum, the velvet swing
torso wrapped in scissors bring
out the banshee colored wail, b-b-baby
u want me

Eye want u 2



What the heck is that last line all about - can anyone interpret?

My ideas are that these lines are sexual. Of course, this is only my interpretation...



Pendulum, the velvet swing (swinging back and forth like a pendulum, references to a womans anatomy, the velvet swing?)
torso wrapped in scissors bring (torso in scissors position?)
out the banshee colored wail, b-b-baby (orgasm?)

It was played as a segue out of Strollin' on the European and Japanese legs of last year's ONA tour.

LOL You mean your guess (based on the words he was singing last year) was spot on ... whereas Prince's lyric book and Rhonda's setlist, as reported on amp ... which said "U And Me" were wrong!!! Crazy.

Ah ha! Sexual position! I should have known. The 'wail' reference is probably just the cry of sexual ecstasy.

Thank you Therapy!

This was a really fun song, and a great segue at the end of Strollin' in concert. I hope he releases a studio version of it on his next album.
