Purple Rain, was the sound track for all of the various misdeeds of my youth. Dena and I looooved it. We listened to it all day, every day. So many times that in fact, I have not listened to it since. A few songs may find their way to a playlist occasionally. But I have ever listened to the whole album again. I have owned it on every medium conceivable. Before he was a symbol, a joke and even a jerk... Prince was the shit. A true pioneer and I hope he truly rests in peace.
Pioneer, trail blazer and too fragile for this world. Chyna was a sweet person who was messed up beyond belief. I am sure that others have had her on their death watch boards for awhile. Myself I saw the writing on the wall even prior to her fall from grace. Betrayed by the industry that she loved and the man that she adored, she never recovered. Despite that, I believe she would've ended up the same way, possibly sooner if her life had continued in an upbeat and positive direction. There are people out there that are deathly allergic to happy. RIP, Joanie.
And with that, back to my teether and my cage
It's criminal
There ought to be a law
Criminal
There ought to be a whole lot more
You get nothin' for nothin'
Tell me who can you trust
We got what you want
And you got the lust
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
Blood on the streets
Blood on the rocks
Blood in the gutter
Every last drop
You want blood
You got it
Yes you have
It's animal
Livin' in the human zoo
Animal
The shit that they toss to you
Feelin' like a christian
Locked in a cage
Thrown to the lions
On the second page
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
Blood on the street
Blood on the rocks
Blood in the gutter
Every last drop
You want blood
You got it
O positive
Blood on the rocks
Blood on the streets
Blood in the sky
Blood on the sheets
If you want blood
You got it
I want you to bleed for me
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
There ought to be a law
Criminal
There ought to be a whole lot more
You get nothin' for nothin'
Tell me who can you trust
We got what you want
And you got the lust
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
Blood on the streets
Blood on the rocks
Blood in the gutter
Every last drop
You want blood
You got it
Yes you have
It's animal
Livin' in the human zoo
Animal
The shit that they toss to you
Feelin' like a christian
Locked in a cage
Thrown to the lions
On the second page
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
Blood on the street
Blood on the rocks
Blood in the gutter
Every last drop
You want blood
You got it
O positive
Blood on the rocks
Blood on the streets
Blood in the sky
Blood on the sheets
If you want blood
You got it
I want you to bleed for me
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
