1999
Album - 27 ottobre 1982 - Debaser id 29243

Don't worry, I won't hurt U
I only want you 2 have some fun

I was dreamin' when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray
But when I woke up this mornin'
Could have sworn it was judgment day

The sky was all purple
There were people runnin' everywhere
Tryin' to run from the destruction
You know I didn't even care

They say two thousand zero, zero, party over,
Oops, out of time!
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999!

I was dreamin' when I wrote this
So sue me if I go too fast
But life is just a party
And parties weren't meant to last

War is all around us
My mind says prepare to fight
So if I gotta die
I'm gonna listen to my body tonight

They say two thousand zero, zero, party over,
Oops, out of time!
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999!
1999!

If you didn't come to party
Don't bother knockin' on my door
I got a lion in my pocket
And baby, he's ready to roar

Yeah, everybody's got a bomb
We could all die any day
But before I'll let that happen
I'll dance my life away

They say two thousand zero, zero, party over,
Oops, out of time!
(We're runnin' outta time)
So tonight we're gonna party like it's 1999!

Say, say,
Two thousand zero, zero, party over,
Oops, out of time!
So tonight we're gonna party like it's 1999!

Alright, it's 1999!

You say it, 1999!

1999!

1999! Don't stop, don't stop, say it 1 more time!

1999!

Mommie, why does everybody have a bomb?(x2)

I guess I should've known by the way you parked your car sideways
That it wouldn't last
See, you're the kinda person that believes in makin' out once
Love 'em and leave 'em fast
I guess I must be dumb 'cause you had a pocket full of horses
Trojan and some of them used
But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right
And you say - "What have I got to lose?"

And honey, I say Little Red Corvette
Baby, you're much too fast (Oh)
Little Red Corvette
you need a love that's gonna last

I guess I should've closed my eyes when you drove me to the place
Where your horses run free
'Cause I felt a little ill when I saw all the pictures
Of the jockeys that were there before me
Believe it or not, I started to worry
I wondered if I had enough class
But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right
And you say - "Baby, have you got enough gas?"
Oh yeah!

Little Red Corvette
Baby, you're much too fast (Yes you are)
Little Red Corvette
You need too find a love that's gonna last (Oh, oh)

A body like yours oughta be in jail
'Cause it's on the verge of bein' obscene
Move over, baby, gimme the keys
I'm gonna try to tame your little red love machine

Little Red Corvette
Baby, you're much too fast
Little Red Corvette
Need too find a love that's gonna last, hey hey

Little Red Corvette
Honey, you got too slow down (Got too slow down)
Little Red Corvette
'Cause if you don't, you're gonna run your little red corvette right in the ground
(Little Red Corvette)
Right down too the ground (Honey, you got too slow down)
You, you, you got to slow down
(Little Red Corvette)
you're movin' much too fast, too fast
Need too find a love that's gonna last!

Girl, you got an ass like I never seen, ow!
And the ride...
I say the ride is so smooth, you must be a limousine

Ow!
Baby, you're much too fast
Little Red Corvette
You need a love, you need a love that's, uh, that's gonna last
(Little Red Corvette)
Babe, you got to slow down (you got to slow down)
Little Red Corvette
'Cause if you don't, 'cause if you don't
You're gonna run your body right into the ground (Right into the ground)
Right into the ground (Right into the ground)
Right into the ground (Right into the ground)

Little Red Corvette, oh

I get delirious, whenever you're near
Lose all self control baby, just can't steer
Wheels get locked in place
Stupid look on my face
Comes to makin a pass pretty mamma
I just cant win a race
Cuz I get delirious

Delirious(x3)

I get delirious, when you hold my hand
My body gets so weak I can hardly stand
My temperature's running hot
Baby you got to stop
Cuz if you don't I'm gonna explode
And girl I got a lot
I get delirious

Delirious(x3)

I get delirious, whenever you're near
Girl you gotta take control cause I just cant steer
You're just too much too take
I can't stop I ain't got no breaks
Girl you gotta take me for a little ride
Up and down in and out and around your lake
I'm delirious

Delirious(ad lib until end)

U ask me if I love U, it's automatic
'Cuz every time U leave me, I die, that's automatic 2
U ask me 2 forgive U, when U know, I'm just an addict
So stop the music baby, U know, You're all I wanna do
Hey
A-U-T-O-matic, just tell me what 2 do
A-U-T-O-matic, I'm so in love with U

U ask me if I'll kiss U, it's automatic
And if U cry, me cry, boo-hoo, that's automatic 2
I would never leave U, no matter what U do
Stop the music baby, U know, I'm an automatic fool
Hey
A-U-T-O-matic, just tell me what 2 do (And don't stop)
A-U-T-O-matic, oh, I'm so in love with U

I'll rub your back forever, it's automatic (A-U-T-O-matic)
I'll look 4 a needle in a haystack, that's automatic 2 (A-U-T-O-matic)
I'll go down on U all night long, it's automatic,
(I will, yes I will babe)
And even when I'm right, I'll be wrong,

A-U-T-O-matic

C'mon baby
A-U-T-O-matic, tell me what to do
A-U-T-O-matic, so in love with U

Don't say no man has ever tasted your ice cream
Baby you're the purple star in the night supreme
You'll always be a virgin for no man deserves your love
I only pray that when U dream, I'm the 1 U dream of
I pray that when U dream, U dream of how we kissed
Not with our lips but with our souls
Stop me if I bore U
Why is it that I think we'd be so good in bed?
Can U hear me? Why do I love U so much?
It's strange, I'm more comfortable around U when I'm naked,
can U hear me?
I wonder if U have any mercy, don't torture me

Stop the music baby, automatic fool
When it comes 2 U I'm automatic baby
There's no 1 else like me
I'm the best you'll ever find
No 1 else could understand U, you're 2 complex
They say nothing's perfect, but they don't know U
That's automatic 2
Can U hear me? (A-U-T-O-matic)
Yes, I'm addicted 2 your pleasure
I'm addicted 2 your pain
It's automatic (A-U-T-O-matic)
Automatically insane
Undress me (A-U-T-O-matic)
(A-U-T-O-matic)
Hey (A-U-T-O-matic)
(A-U-T-O-matic)
(A-U-T-O-matic)
(A-U-T-O-matic)
Hey
Fasten your seat belts
Prepare 4 takeoff

(I remember how U kissed me)
(Not with your lips but with your soul)
(With U I'm never bored, talk 2 me some more)
(I can hear U, I'm going 2 have 2 torture U now)

Some people tell me I got great legs
Can't figure out why U make me beg
Does not compute (Does not compute)
Don't not compute (Don't not compute)
U think you're special, well so do I
Why do special women make me cry?
Does not compute (Does not compute)
It don't not compute (Don't not compute)

Must be something in the water they drink
It's been the same with every girl I've had
Must be something in the water they drink
'Cuz why else would a woman wanna treat a man so bad?

Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U
It don't compute (Don't not compute)
Somethin' mama don't compute (Don't not compute)
What's the hangup? What's the scam?
Guess U think I'm just another 1...1 of your fans
It don't compute (Don't not compute)
Somethin' honey don't compute (Don't not compute)

Must be something in the water they drink
It's been the same with every girl I've had
Must be something in the water U drink
'Cuz why else would a woman wanna treat a man so bad?

I've got 2 get 2 U, baby
Some people think I'm kinda smart
Why must a fella stop with U before he starts?
It don't compute, mama (Does not compute)
Somethin' don't compute (Don't not compute)
I'd buy U clothing, buy U fancy cars
But U gotta talk 2 me, baby, tell me who U really r

Must be something in the water they drink

Or else I wouldn't go through all the things I do

Don't sleep 'til the sunrise, listen 2 the falling rain
Don't worry 'bout tomorrow, don't worry 'bout your pain
Don't cry unless you're happy, don't smile unless you're blue
Never let that lonely monster take control of U

Be glad that U r free - Free 2 change your mind

Be glad that U r free - There's many a man who's not
Be glad 4 what U had baby, what you've got
Be glad 4 what you've got

I know your heart is beating, my drummer tells me so
If U take your life 4 granted, your beating heart will go
So don't sleep until you're guilty, 'cuz sinners all r we
There's others doing far worse than us, so be glad that U r free

Be glad that U r free - Free 2 change your mind
Free 2 go most anywhere, anytime
Be glad that U r free - There's many a man who's not
Be glad 4 what U had baby, what you've got
Be glad 4 what you've got

Soldiers are a marching, they're writing brand new laws
Will we all fight together 4 the most important cause?
Will we all fight 4 the right 2 be free?
Free (Be glad that U r free)
Free 2 change my mind (Free 2 change your mind)
Free 2 go most anywhere, anytime (Free 2 go most anywhere,anytime)
I'm just glad, I'm just glad I'm free, yeah (Be glad that U r free)
There's many a man who's not (There's many a man who's not)
Glad 4 what I had baby, (Be glad 4 what U had and)
Glad 4 what I got, oh yeah (for what you've got)
Oh I'm just glad, I'm just glad I'm free,yeah (Be glad that U r free)

Prince: Taxi, taxi

Prince and Revolution:
Lady, cab driver, can u take me 4 a ride
Don't know where I'm going, 'cause I don't where I've been,
Just put your foot on the gas, let's drive

Lady, don't ask questions...
I promise I'll tell you no lies
Trouble winds are blowing, I'm growing cold
Get me outta' here... feel I'm gonna' die

Lady, cab driver,
Roll up your window fast
Lately, trouble winds are blowin' hard
And I don't know if I can last

Lady, I'm so lonely,
I know that's not the way to be,
Don't like isolation, but the air it makes me cold
Drive it baby, drive it, drive this demon out of me
Take me, to your mansion...
Honey let's go everywhere
Help me girl I'm drowning,
Mass confusion in my head
Will U accept my tears to pay the fare

Lady, cab driver
Roll up your window fast
Lately, trouble winds are blowin' hard
And I don't know if I can last
Ohhhh!!

Lady, cab driver
Can U take me 4 a ride

Lady , cab driver
Roll up your window fast
Lately, trouble winds are blowin' hard
And I don't know if I can last

Prince's Rap:(with sounds of woman moaning
in the background, along with a sqeaking bed
throughout)
THIS is 4 the cab u have 2 drive for no money at all,
THIS is 4 why I wasn't born like my brother, handsome and tall,
THIS is 4 politicians, who are bored and believe in war,
And this...mmm, yeah that's for me, that's who that one's 4
THIS is 4 discrimination, and egotist's who think supreme,
THIS is 4 whoever taught u how 2 kiss in designer jeans,
Oh, THAT one's for, THAT one's for, where u have 2 live,
THIS one's 4 the rich, not all of 'em, just the greedy...
The ones who don't know how 2 give
THIS one's 4 Yosemite Sam, and the tourists at Disneyland,
THIS one, ooooh, yeah, that's the one
THAT'S 4, that's 4, the creator of man
THIS one's 4 the sun, moon, stars...tourists at Disneyland
THIS one's 4 the ocean, the sea, the shore...
THIS one's 4....and THAT'S 4 u, that's who that one's 4,
THIS is 4 the women, so beautifully complex,
THIS is 4 the love without sex,
THIS is 4 the wind, that blows no matter how fast or slow
Not knowing where I'm going is galaxies better
Than not having a place to go, now I know, now I know

Prince and Revolution:
Lady, cab driver

repeated several times to end

Hey man, thats my taxi!
