Erotic City Lyrics
I...I...I...I...
Erotic...
City...
Erotic City
All of my purple life
I've been looking for a dame
That would wanna be my wife
That was my intention, babe
If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
Everytime I comb my hair
Thoughts of you get in my eyes
you're a sinner, I don't care
I just want your creamy thighs
If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
All of my hang-ups are gone
How I wish you felt the same
We can funk until the dawn ('Til the dawn) (Until the dawn)
How I wish you were my dame (Baby won't you call my name)
If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
Baby, you're so creamy
If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone ('Til the dawn)
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time (you and me)
Some time, some time, some time, Erotic City
If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone (Come alive)
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone
Erotic City
Erotic...
City...
Erotic City
I've been looking for a dame
That would wanna be my wife
That was my intention, babe
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
Thoughts of you get in my eyes
you're a sinner, I don't care
I just want your creamy thighs
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
How I wish you felt the same
We can funk until the dawn ('Til the dawn) (Until the dawn)
How I wish you were my dame (Baby won't you call my name)
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone ('Til the dawn)
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
Some time, some time, some time, Erotic City
If we cannot make babies, maybe we can make some time
Thoughts of pretty you and me, Erotic City come alive
Erotic City can't you see, thoughts of pretty you and me
We can funk until the dawn, making love 'til cherry's gone

Originally he says the word fuck instead of Funk. But this song is very funny.
I was with my wife and two children both under five years of age at the outdoor pool enjoying myself when one of my favorite songs came on. There was one problem though, as much as I love Prince, the song "Erotic City" has no place blasting over the loud speakers while youngsters play at the recreational pool. If I was hanging with friends at a club somewhere you wouldn't hear me complaining, but come on really? Who thought this was appropriate for children to hear?
Oh and the lyrics above are all wrong. He says:
If we cannot make babies Maybe we can make some time Fuck so pretty, U and me Erotic City come alive We could fuck until the dawn Makin' love 'til cherry's gone Erotic City, can't U see? Fuck so pretty, U and me
Sheila admitted on her 'Unsung' bio. She never once says the f bomb. She says funk. She states "...it was his nasty butt saying that other word. My daddy woulda killed me if I said that other word."

I remember this song was suggested to me by a much younger Lady friend, this was very direct and there was not miss understanding as what was to happen at the end of the song.... Prince is the man Sexy MF
i love this song sososomuch.
and if you can't figure out the meaning, go die. it's fucking obvious.
I wonder why they can't make babies. Is she infertile? Is he?
Maybe, he does have a couple genetic disorders including epilepsy and his only child (that we know of) died young of a rare bone disease.

if you make babies you have to care for them and shit. when you're a wild mid-twenties rock star you dont want to be doing that. you just want to fuck. am i right sheila? am i right p?
Prince's voice sounds weird in this one.
patobrien: "am i right sheila" HAHAHA am I the only one who got that. LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!
Great song, one of my favorites from Prince.
This song was originally on the b-side to the single for "Let's Go Crazy"; About the closest this world will ever come to having an "Erotic City" will probably be Vegas!
