Life Can Be So Nice I've been listening to Parade a lot yesterday and today and I must say I am always just stunned by the following part of Life Can Be So Nice.
Shivering madly... (Shivering madly in your embrace,) Your embrace (is it better than a trip?) Better than a trip (Morning glories never cry) (My love is just a drippin') Morning glories crying (Scrambled eggs are boring) embrace (mama, u're all I want 2 know) I do love u baby, (This morning there was joy in my heart) u baby ('cause u know I loved u so. yeah) (drips) I just got the lyrics from Prince Lyrics .com and eventhough I never really knew what he was saying it still is just a blast to hear. The music is...how to describe it? Any thoughts ya'll? I'm firmly planted in denial |

I have always loved Life Can Be So Nice!  "Hyperactive when I was small, Hyperactive now I'm grown, Hyperactive 'till I'm dead and gone"

This is what Roadhouse Garden material sounds like "Climb in my fur." | |

I really love this song. I really do. Prince doesn't make classic tracks like this anymore. Damn shame. NEW WAVE FOREVER: SLAVE TO THE WAVE FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. | |

The transcription at the Databank Transcription Team site appears to be more faithful to the recorded version:
Shivering madly in your embrace is better than a trip (Shivering madly in your embrace) Morning glories never cry, my love is just a-drippin' (Better than a trip) Scrambled eggs are boring, mama, U're all I wanna know (Morning glorified in every way) This morning there was joy in my heart cuz I know that I love U so, shit! (My love 4 U, baby, drips) http://www.dtt-lyrics.com....html#life . [This message was edited Wed Nov 19 0:26:47 PST 2003 by langebleu] ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. |

This used to be the only track on Parade I could take or leave. Never interested me much. Sometime over the last two years or so, though, this track has 'clicked' with me. Definitely a cool track for me now. Which means, there's not a track on Parade I don't love. | |

Doesn't Sheila play something like "Cymbals" or "high-hats" on this track? I thought it was weird cuz the live drums seem like Sheila would have played them too.  |

What's up with that "Guillotine" ending.
lalalala*snap* enter: Venus de Milo. It's a bit of a severe cut for my taste. But it still works. I would just like to hear how it would work fading out. and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Love this track!
Also, love the performance of the track at the Detroit '86 gig, especially the way he slows it down at the end. Sooo cool. | |

Now we're talking...I would have keeled over and died if he'd played it...I think its too much of a 'Wendy and Lisa' song to get any play on tour these days | |

I remember in high school I tried to pass the lyrics off as poetry for this chik I liked.
Talk about getting myself embarrassed... "Scrambled Eggs???" I've reversed the polarity of the neutron flow... Now to find a way to exterminate Melody Cool and Rosie Gaines...
