evidently I be jamin' too loud....

Just got a call on the inter-house-intercom.... I should be in bed, asleep.... I'm Minesweeperin' to the jammin' tunes of The Artist Formerly Known As Prince Who's Known As Prince Once Again Now That His Slave Contract With Warner Brothers Has Exprired. (TAFKAPWKAPOANTHSCTWBHE)

She saw me walking down the streets | Of your fine city
It kinda turned me on when she looked at me | And said, "c'mere"
Now i don't usually talk to strangers | But she looked so pretty
What can i lose, | If i, uh, just give her a little ear?
"what's up little girl? | i ain't got time to play."
Baby didn't say too much | She said, "are you gay?"
Kinda took me by suprise | I didn't know what to do
I just looked her in her eyes | And i said, "no, are u?"
Said to myself, said | "she's just a crazy, crazy, crazy
Little mixed up dame. | She's just a victim of society
And all it's games."

Now where i come from | We don't let society
Tell us how it's supposed to be | Our clothes, our hair
We don't care | It's all about being there
Everybody's going uptown | That's where i wanna be
Uptown | Set your mind free
Uptown | Got my body hot
Get down | I don't wanna stop, no

As soon as we got there | Good times were rolling
White, black, puerto rican | Everybody just a-freakin'
Good times were rolling | She started dancing in the streets
Ow, girl, she's just gone mad | U know, she even made love to me
Ooh, best night i ever had | Ah yeah

I never talk to strangers | But this time it's all right
See, she got me hot, ah | I couldn't stop, ah
Good times were rolling all night all night, yeah

Now where i come from | We don't give a damn
We do whatever we please | It ain't about no downtown
Nowhere bound | Narrow-minded drag
It's all about being free

Everybody's going uptown...{snip}
