Songtext zu 'Pop Life (Extended Version)' von Prince

What's the matter with your life?
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
Mm, 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)
But life - it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
Dig it

Pop life - Everybody needs a thrill
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)
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 - We all got a space 2 fill
Pop life - Everybody can't be on top
Life - it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
Dig it, uh

(Ooh)
What cha puttin' in your nose?
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
Sing it

Pop life - Everybody needs a thrill
Pop life - We all got a space 2 fill
Pop life - Everybody wants 2 be on top
Life - it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
Dig it

Pop life - Everybody needs satisfaction
Pop life - Want a chemical reaction
Pop life - Everybody wants 2 get high
But U don't see no one standing in line 2 say, "bye-bye"
That's pop life

Everybody needs a thrill
Pop life - We all got a space 2 fill
Pop life - And everybody can't be on top
But life - it ain't real funky, baby, unless it's got that pop
Pop life

Pop life - Whoo, uh!
Pop life - Fill my space, darling
Pop life - I wanna be, I wanna be on top
Life - it ain't real funky, unless it's got that pop
(Ain't 2 funky unless it's got that...)

Pop life - Tell me, tell me, what's the matter with your sex?
Pop life - Is 15 minutes your best?
Pop life - I guess U, I guess U
Gotta get it off your chest
Why'd U need another love, U know that I'm the best?
I guess that's pop life

Pop life - Me body needs satisfaction
Pop life - I want chemical reaction
Pop life - Everybody can't be on top
Life - it ain't real funky, unless it's got that pop
U sing, now

Pop life {x3}
Life it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
Dig it

Pop life - Oh, don't cha let let let it, no
Pop life - Is it bringing U down?
Pop life - Is it bringing U down? Yeah
Life it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
(Life - it ain't real funky unless it's got that...)

Pop life - U sing it
Pop life - Everybody
Pop life - Everybody
Life it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
(Unless it's got that...)

Life it ain't real funky unless it's got that pop
(It's ain't 2 funky unless it's got that...)

Pop life - Oh yeah, yeah
Pop life - Is the poverty bringing U down?
Pop life - Is the mailman jerking U around?
