Thank you so much for making me research this album. Of course, I knew about it. I'm a big p-funk fan, and I have some funkadelic and parliament albums. But I slept on Computer Games, mostly because the second single that I heard (Loopzilla) was weak, imo. But I just listened to a couple more songs on YT and that stuff is slammin.

Transcribing the lyrics is going to be tough. The singing on Computer Games is cool but slurred. Pot Sharing Tots is easier, outside of the baby noises. But I'm at work, so I don't have time to do it. Hopefully, paisleypark4 can do Free Alterations and maybe more.

Here's my take on the opening lines of Pots Sharing Tots:

"If we were just babies
Sharing a cradle
I'd share a suck on my thumb with you."

And the rest of the song has various examples of babies or little kids sharing stuff. It's clearly supposed to be a metaphor for something, but I'm not exactly sure what. Sharing weed, perhaps. smile

Here's my attempt at Pot Sharing Tots:

(Baby sounds)

If we were just babies
Sharing a cradle
I'd share a suck on my thumb with you

We wouldn't freak out, like the grown-ups do
If I were one, and you were two
I would do a striptease for you

If we were just tots, sharing a pot
I'd share a do(?) of my do with you
You'd be pink, and I'd be blue
If I should get wet, you'd get wet, too
If I shared my space with you

(Baby sounds)

You in your carriage
Me in my buggy
Strolling down the avenue

One day when they(?) shop(?) for tiny tots
I suck my pacifier in a little sandbox
While you suck your thumb there, too
Til they're through

(Baby sounds)

I would crawl before you walk
You would walk before I'd run
And I'd run away with you

(Baby sounds)
