“Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
2 get through this thing called life.Electric word life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here 2 tell U
There's something else:
The afterworld.A world of never ending happiness
U can always see the sun, day or night.”

Let's Go Crazy
Song lyrics, Purple Rain (1984)

“Could you be
The most beautiful girl in the world?
Could you be?
It's plain to see.
You're the reason that God made a girl.
Oh, yes, you are.”

The Most Beautiful Girl in the World
Song lyrics, The Gold Experience (1995)

“U don't have 2 be rich
2 be my girl
U don't have 2 be cool
2 rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss.”

Kiss
Song lyrics, Parade Under the Cherry Moon (1986)

“It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it. And we're in a place now where we all need one another, and it's going to get rougher.”

“I've seen the future and it will be
I've seen the future and it works
If there's life after, we will see
So I can't go like a jerk
Systematic overthrow of the underclass
Hollywood conjures images of the past
New world needs spirituality that will last
I've seen the future and it will be.”

The Future
Song lyrics, Batman (1989)

“Women not girls rule my world
I said they rule my world
Act your age, mama (not your shoe size)
Not your shoe size
Maybe we could do the twirl
U don't have 2 watch Dynasty
2 have an attitude
U just leave it all up 2 me
My love will be your food
Yeah.”

Song lyrics, Parade Under the Cherry Moon (1986)

“How can U just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold)
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father, 2 bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry.”

When Doves Cry
Song lyrics, Purple Rain (1984)

“Pardon me 4 living, but this is my world 2
I can't help that what's cool to us might be strange to u.
Pardon me 4 breathing, can we borrow some of your air?
The problem with u and your kind is that u don't know love is there.”

New Power Generation
Song lyrics, Graffiti Bridge (1990)

“Here we are folks
The dream we all dream of
Boy versus girl in the World Series of love
Tell me, have U got the look?”

U Got the Look
Song lyrics, Sign O' the Times (1987)

“Women not girls rule my world
I said they rule my world
Act your age, mama (not your shoe size)
Not your shoe size
Maybe we could do the twirl
U don't have 2 watch Dynasty
2 have an attitude
U just leave it all up 2 me
My love will be your food
Yeah.U don't have 2 be rich
2 be my girl
U don't have 2 be cool
2 rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss.”
