Little Red Corvette
Íõ×Ó(Prince) Lyrics

I guess I shoulda known By the way you parked your car sideways That it wouldn't last
I should have known from the start that our relationship would never work out because of your reckless behavior, such as parking your car haphazardly.

See you're the kinda person That believes in makin' out once Love 'em and leave 'em fast
You are the type of person who doesn't believe in a serious commitment, only in casual hook-ups and one-night stands.

I guess I must be dumb Cause you had a pocket full of horses Trojan and some of them used
I must have been naive because I didn't realize you were carrying around condoms and had already slept with multiple partners before me.

But it was Saturday night I guess that makes it all right And you say what have I got to lose? And honey I say
You justify your actions with the excuse of it being the weekend and not a big deal, but I'm starting to question our relationship.

Little red corvette Baby you're much too fast Little red corvette You need a love that's gonna last
You are like a little red corvette, moving too quickly through life and relationships, and you need to find someone who can match your pace and commitment level.

I guess I shoulda closed my eyes When you drove me to the place Where your horses run free
I regret not seeing the warning signs earlier when you took me to a place where you have many previous sexual partners.

Cause I felt a little envy When I saw all the pictures Of the jockeys that were there before me
I couldn't help but feel a bit jealous when I saw pictures of your past lovers and the experience they had with you.

Believe it or not I started to worry I wondered if I had enough class
I began to worry about my own self-worth compared to your past partners.

Oh yeah Little red corvette Baby you're much too fast, yes you are Little red corvette You need to find a love that's gonna last
Once again, you are moving through life too quickly and need to find a more lasting love, rather than superficial flings.

A body like yours (a body like yours) Oughta be in jail (oughta be in jail) Cause it's on the verge of bein obscene (Cause it's on the verge of bein obscene)
Your body is so attractive that it should be illegal, and it borders on being too sexually explicit.

Move over baby (move over baby) Gimme the keys (gimme the keys) I'm gonna try to tame your little red love machine (I'm gonna try to tame your little red love machine)
Let me take control and try to make your wild and impulsive behavior more stable and lasting in our relationship.

Little red corvette Honey you got to slow down (got to slow down) Little red corvette Cause if you don't you gonna run your Little red corvette right in the ground
You need to slow down and take your time in relationships, or else you will quickly burn out and ruin your chances at happiness.

(Little red corvette) Right down to the ground (honey you got to slow down) You, you, you got to slow down (little red corvette) You're movin much too fast (too fast) You need to find a love that's gonna last
Continuing the message of slowing down and finding a stable, lasting relationship before you crash and burn like a little red corvette.

Girl, you got an ass like I never seen And the ride... I say the ride is so smooth You must be a limousine
You have an amazingly attractive body, and everything about you seems fast and sleek, like a limousine ride.

Cuz if you don't, cuz if you don't, You gonna run your body right into the ground (right into the ground) Right into the ground (right into the ground) Right into the ground (right into the ground) Little red corvette
The repeated warning of burning out too quickly and ruining your chances at love and happiness, like crashing a little red corvette.
