Nelson (Composed By), Prince (Composed By), David Leonard (Recorded By), Susan Rogers (Recorded By), Jonathan Melvoin (Tambourine)[X]Open your heart, open your mindletra de Around The World In A Day
A train is leaving all day
A wonderful trip through our time
And laughter is all you pay
Around the world in a day, oh!
Around the world in a day
Now dig...
Loneliness already knows you
There ain't no reason 2 stay
Come here, take my hand, I'll show you
I think I know a better way, y'all
Around the world in a day, ow!
(Listen 2 me now)
Around the world in a day
All the babies sing it now
Ooh la, la
Ooh la, la, la, la
No, sha, sha
No, no shouting every day (No shouting every day)
No shouting (No shouting)
No, no shouting
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
The little one will escort you
2 places within your mind
(The former is red, white, and blue)
Former is red, white, and blue!
(The latter is a purple climb)
The latter is a purple - come on and climb!
Around the world in a day, sugar (Oh, baby)
Around the world in a day
Come on, say it!
Around the world in a day
Say papa, I think I wanna dance!
(In summer she?? S sweeter)
Around the world in a day {repeat to fade}
Oh yeah!
All the little babies sing around the world
A government of love and music boundless in its unifying power {fade out}
A nation of art 2 production
Sharing ideas, a shower of flowers - Paisley ParkVer letra 4:41
Músicos invitados: David Leonard (Recorded By), Peggy McCreary (Recorded By), Susan Rogers (Recorded By), Novi Novog (Violin)[X]1, 2, 1, 2, 3letra de Paisley Park
There is a park that is known
4 the face it attracts
Colorful people whose hair
On 1 side is swept back
The smile on their faces
It speaks of profound inner peace
Ask where they're going
They'll tell U nowhere
They've taken a lifetime lease
On Paisley Park
The girl on the seesaw is laughing
4 love is the color
This place imparts (Paisley Park)
Admission is easy, just say U
Believe and come 2 this
Place in your heart
Paisley Park is in your heart
There is a woman who sits
All alone by the pier
Her husband was naughty
And caused his wife so many tears
He died without knowing forgiveness
And now she is sad, so sad
Maybe she'll come 2 the park
And forgive him
And life won't be so bad
In Paisley Park
The girl on the seesaw is laughing
4 love is the color
This place imparts (Paisley Park)
Admission is easy, just say U
Believe and come 2 this
Place in your heart
Paisley Park is in your heart
See the man cry as the city
Condemns where he lives
Memories die but taxes
He'll still have 2 give
(who) Whoever said that elephants
Were stronger than mules?
Come 2 the park
And play with us
There aren't any rules
In Paisley Park
The girl on the seesaw is laughing
4 love is the color
This place imparts (Paisley Park)
Admission is easy, just say U
Believe and come 2 this
Place in your heart
Paisley Park is in your heart
The girl on the seesaw is laughing
4 love is the color
This place imparts (Paisley Park)
Admission is easy, just say U
Believe and come 2 this
Place in your heart
Paisley Park is in your heart
Your heart, your heart
Paisley Park
Your heart, your heart, your heart (sing, sing it)

Paisley Park - Condition Of The HeartVer letra 6:46
Músicos invitados: Prince (Instruments [All]), Prince (Voice [All Voices]), Peggy McCreary (Recorded By)[X]There was a girl in Paris whom he sent a letter 2letra de Condition Of The Heart
Hoping she would answer back now wasn't that a foolhardy notion
On the part of a sometimes lonely musician?
Acting out a whim is only good 4 a condition of the heart
There was a dame from London who insisted that he love her
Then left him 4 a real prince from Arabia
Now isn't that a shame
That sometimes money buys you everything and nothing?
Love - it only seems 2 buy a terminal condition of the heart
Oh - thinking about you, driving me crazy
Oh - my friends all say it's just a phase, but?
Oh - every day is a yellow day
I'm blinded by the daisies in your yard
There was a woman from the ghetto
Who made funny faces just like Clara Bow
How was I 2 know that she would wear the same cologne as you
And giggle the same giggle that you do?
Whenever I would act a fool, the fool with a condition of the heart
Oh - thinking about you, driving me crazy
Oh - my friends all say it's just a phase, but?
Oh - every single day is a yellow day
I'm blinded by the daisies in your yard
(There was a girl in Paris whom he sent a letter 2)
There was a girl? Whom he sent a letter 2
(Hoping she would answer back)
She never answered back and now
(Wasn't that a foolhardy notion?)
He's got a condition of the heart - Raspberry BeretVer letra 3:31
Músicos invitados: David Coleman (2) (Cello), Suzie Katayama (Cello), Susan Rogers (Recorded By), Novi Novog (Violin)[X]1 2 1 2 3letra de Raspberry Beret
Yeah
I was working part time in a five-and-dime
My boss was Mr. McGee
He told me several times that he didn't like my kind
'Cause I was a bit too leisurely
Seems that I was busy doing something close to nothing
But different than the day before
That's when I saw her, Ooh, I saw her
She walked in through the out door, out door
She wore a raspberry beret
The kind you find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her
Built like she was
She had the nerve to ask me
If I planned to do her any harm
So, look here
I put her on the back of my bike
And we went riding
Down by old man Johnson's farm
I said now, overcast days never turned me on
But something about the clouds and her mixed
She wasn't too bright
But I could tell when she kissed me
She knew how to get her kicks
She wore a raspberry beret
The kind you find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her
The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof
And the horses wonder who you are
Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees
You feel like a movie star
Listen
They say the first time ain't the greatest
But I tell ya
If I had the chance to do it all again
I wouldn't change a stroke
'Cause baby I'm the most
With a girl as fine as she was then
(Raspberry beret)
The kind you find (The kind you find)
The kind you find (In a second hand store)
Oh no no
(Raspberry beret)
(And if it was warm)
Where have all the raspberry women gone? (She wouldn't wear much more)
Yeah (Raspberry beret)
I think I... I think I... I think I love her
(Raspberry beret)
No No No
No No No (The kind you find)
(In a second hand store)
(Raspberry beret)
Tell me
Where have all the raspberry women gone? (And if it was warm she)
(Wouldn't wear much more)
(Raspberry beret)
I think I love. - TamborineVer letra 2:46
Músicos invitados: Prince (Instruments [All]), Prince (Voice [All Voices]), David Leonard (Recorded By)[X]Oh my God here U areletra de Tamborine
Prettiest thing in life I've ever seen
Close my eyes what's it like,
What's it like inside your tamborine?
Oh my God, there I go
Falling in love with the face in a magazine (uh oh, not again)
All alone by myself
Me and I play my tamborine
Tamborine

Long days, lonely nights

Long days, lonely nights

I just want 2 settle down and
Play around
My baby's tamborine
Tamborine what are U
Why are U the star of
All my dreams
(Star of all my dreams, are U a good tamborine)
Are U good, are U bad
Are U just unnecessary means

The tamborine - AmericaVer letra 3:40
Músicos invitados: Susan Rogers (Recorded By), Brad Marsh (Tambourine)[X]Yeahletra de America
(Shotgun)
Peace!
Eh, yeah, eh
Aristocrats on a mountain climb
Makin' money, losin' time
Communism is just a word
But if the government turn over
It'll be the only word that's heard
Chorus:
America, America
God shed His grace on thee
America, America
Keep the children free
Little sister make minimum wage
Livin' in a one-room jungle monkey cage
Can't get over, she's almost dead
She may not be in the black
But she happy she ain't in the red
Chorus
Freedom? Love? Joy? Peace
Jimmy Nothing never went 2 school
They made him pledge allegiance
He said it wasn't cool
Nothin' made Jimmy proud
Now Jimmy live on a mushroom cloud
Chorus {x2}
Freedom? Love? Joy? Peace
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! (Oh Lord, oh Lord)
And the bomb go
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
And the bomb go
Boom!

Is the poverty bringing U down?
Is the mailman jerking U 'round?
Did he put your million dollar check
In someone else's box?
Tell me, what's the matter with your world
Was it a boy when U wanted a girl? (Boy when u wanted a girl)
Don't U know straight hair ain't got no curl (No curl)

Pop life
We all got a space 2 fill
Pop life
Everybody can't be on top
But life it ain't real funky
Unless it's got that pop
Dig it
Tell me, what's that underneath your hair?
Is there anybody living there? (Anybody living there)
U can't get over, if U say U just don't care (Don't care)
Show me a boy who stays in school
And I'll show U a boy aware!
Dig it
Pop life
Everybody needs a thrill

Pop life
Everybody can't be on top
But life it ain't real funky
Unless it's got that pop

Is that where all your money goes (Is that where your money goes)
The river of addiction flows
U think it's hot, but there won't be no water
When the fire blows
Dig it

Everybody needs a thrill
Pop life
We all got a space 2 fill
Pop life
Everybody wants to be on top
But life it ain't real funky
Unless it's got that pop

There lived a king who didn't deserve 2 be
He knew not where he came from
Nor where he was going
He never once said thank U, never please
Now this king he had a subject named Electra
Who loved him with a passion, uncontested
4 him each day she had a smile
But it didn't matter
The king was looking 4 the ladder
Everybody's looking 4 the ladder
Everybody wants salvation of the soul
The steps U take are no easy road
But the reward is great
4 those who want 2 go
A feeling of self-worth (everybody's looking)
Will caress U (for the answers)
The size of the whole wide world will decrease (how the story started)
(and how it will end)
The love of God's creation will undress U
And time spent alone my friend, will cease
Everybody's looking 4 the answers
How the story started and how it will end
What's the use in half a story, half a dream
U have 2 climb all of the steps in between (yeah, we ride)
Everybody's looking 4 the ladder
Everybody wants salvation of the soul
The steps U take are no easy road (the steps you take are no easy road)
(it's not that easy)
But the reward is great
4 those who want 2 go (I do)
Everybody... everybody's looking (Everybody's looking 4 the answers)
For the answers
Everybody wants to know how the story (How the story started)
Started and how it will end (started and how it will end)
What's the use in half a story, (What's the use in half a story)
Half a dream (half of a dream)
U, U gotta climb, U gotta climb (U have 2 climb all)
All of the steps in between (the steps in between)
Everybody,
Everybody's looking 4 that ladder (Everybody's looking 4 the ladder)
Everybody wants salvation of the soul (Everybody wants salvation of the soul)
(salvation)
The steps U take are no easy road (the steps you take are no easy road)
(that's for sure)
But the reward is great (the reward is great)
4 those who want 2 go, (4 those who want 2 go)
Those who want 2 go
Everybody... everybody wants (Everybody's looking 4 the answers)
An answer
Anyone who know how the story (How the story started)
Started, how it will end (started and how it will end)
Will it be lonely in the world (What's the use in half a story)
What's the use? (half of a dream)
(have 2 climb all)

Músicos invitados: David Leonard (Recorded By), Eddie M (2) (Saxophone)[X]Sexletra de Temptation
Temptation
Lust
Pop go mama
Everybody on this earth has got a vice
And mine, little darlin', mine is the opposite of ice
Mine is the running hot water of the daughter of morality
In other words, this little prince thinks a lot about U, see?
Baby, baby, baby
I'm guilty in the first degree
Temptation
Working my body with a hot flash of animal lust
Temptation
All my fingers in the pool go splash we must
Everybody in this room
Everybody in this room has got an urge
What's yours, baby?
Mine is temptation, it reigns at a party where lovers splurge
Pop go mama when daddy gets a little 2 much
You know what I'm talkin' 'bout?
Purplelectricity whenever our bodies touch
Ooh baby, I love it when our bodies touch
Temptation
Working my body with a hot flash of animal lust
Temptation
All my fingers in the pool go splash we must
Temptation, temptation, temptation
Wait a minute now
Temptation
Working my body with a hot flash of animal lust
Temptation
All my fingers in the pool go splash we must
Temptation
Working my body, working my body, working my body
Temptation
I'm not talkin' about just ordinary temptation, people. I'm talking
About the kind of temptation that'll make U do things.
Oh, oh, temptation.
Oh, darling, I can almost taste the wetness between your...
Temptation, temptation
I'm not talking about any ol' kind of temptation, people, I'm talkin'
About, I'm talkin' about... sexual temptation.
A lover
I need a lover, a lover, I need a...right now.
U, I want U.
I want U in the worst way.
I want U.
"Oh, silly man, that's not how it works.
You have 2 want her 4 the right reasons."
I do!
"U don't, now die!"
No! No!
Let me go, let me go.
I'm sorry.
I'll be good.
This time I promise,
Love is more important than sex.
Now I understand.
I have 2 go now.
I don't know when I'll return.
Good-bye
