P. Control
Prince Lyrics

Our special presentation will start shortly
The performance is about to begin

But first a message from our sponsors
Before we start, a word from our sponsors

Good mornin' ladies and gentlemen ("What hotel number is she in?")
The performer is greeting the audience and quoting someone who is asking for a hotel number

Boys and motherfuckin' girls ("319, 319" "Cool")
The performer is addressing everyone in the audience, regardless of gender, and quoting a conversation about a hotel room number

This is your captain with no name speakin'
The performer introduces himself as the captain with no name

And I'm here to rock your world
The performer will deliver a memorable experience

With a tale that will soon be classic
The performer will tell a story that will become well-known

About a woman you already know
The story is about a woman the audience is familiar with

No prostitute she, but the mayor of your brain
The woman is not a prostitute, but influential to the audience's thoughts

Pussy Control (Are you ready?)
'Pussy Control' is the name of the story, asking if the audience is ready to hear it

Our story begins in a schoolyard
The story starts in a schoolyard

A little girl skipping rope with her friends
The artist was a girl playing jump rope with friends

A tisket, a tasket, no lunch in her basket
The girl didn't have lunch in her basket

Just school books for the fight she would be in
She brought school books for a fight that awaited her

One day over this hoodie
One day, an incident happened regarding her hoodie

She got beat for some clothes and her rep
She got beaten up for her clothes and reputation

With her chin up, she scolded "All y'all's molded
Despite the beating, she remained defiant and told her attackers they were not special

When I'm rich, on your neck I will step"
She vowed to step on their necks when she became rich

And step she did to the straight A's
She graduated with straight A's

Then college, the master degree
She furthered her education and got a master's degree

She hired the heifers that jumped her
She hired the people who attacked her

And made everyone of them work for free?
She made them work for her without pay

No! Why?
The performer asks why she would hire her attackers

So what if my sisters are triflin'?
She doesn't care how her sisters behave

They just don't know
They lack knowledge or understanding

She said "Mama didn't tell'em what she told me
She explains that her mother taught her something that she didn't teach her sisters

Girl, you need Pussy Control" (Are you ready?)
The singer learned something from her mother called 'Pussy Control' which she is about to describe

Pussy got bank in her pockets
Women should focus on accumulating wealth

Before she got dick in her drawers
Women should prioritize wealth over sex

If brother didn't have good and plenty of his own
If a man isn't successful on his own, they don't deserve a woman's time

In love Pussy never did fall
Women should not be too emotional when it comes to love

And this fool named Trick wanna stick her
A man called Trick wants to have sex with her

Uh, talkin' more Schick than a Bic
Trick is using smooth and persuasive language

'Bout how he gonna make Pussy a star
Trick is promising to make the artist famous

If she come and sing a lick on his hit
If she sings a part of his song

Pussy said "Nigga, you crazy if you don't know
The artist calls Trick crazy

Every woman in the world ain't a freak
Not all women are easy to get

You can go platinum four times
Trick can have all the success, but still not make as much money as the singer

Still couldn't make what I make in a week
Regardless of his fame, he can't match the singer's wealth

So push up on somebody wanna hear that
Trick should look for someone else who wants to hear his offer

Cause this somebody here don't wanna know
The artist is not interested in Trick's offer

Boy, you better act like you understand
Trick should show he understands he's not wanted

When you roll with Pussy Control" (Are you ready?)
Trick needs to understand the concept of 'Pussy Control'

Aaah, Pussy Control, oh
The performer references 'Pussy Control' again

(Are you ready for the best Pussy you ever felt?) [Repeat: x2]
The performer asks if the audience is ready for a great experience with 'Pussy Control'

With one more verse to the story
The performer has one more part to the story

I need another piece of your ear
The performer needs everyone's undivided attention

I wanna hip you all to the reason
The performer wants to explain why they are known as the 'player of the year'

Cause I met this girl named Pussy
The performer met a girl called Pussy

At the Club International Balls
The performer met her at a club

She was rollin' four-deep
Pussy was in a group with three other women

3 sisters and a weepy-eyed white girl drivin' her haul
The group consists of three sisters and a white girl who is sad and driving them

I pulled up right beside her
The performer pulled up next to her

And my electric top went down
The performer lowered his electric top

I said "Motherfucker, I know your reputation
The performer confronts Pussy about her reputation

And I'm astounded that you're here
The performer is surprised that Pussy is here

I fear you're lonely and you want to know
The performer thinks Pussy is lonely and wants to be understood

A twelve o'clock straight up nigga
The performer is a man who is truthful

That don't give a shit that you're Pussy Control
The performer doesn't care about Pussy's reputation

Well I'm that nigga, at least I wanna be
The performer wants to be the kind of man who doesn't care about Pussy's reputation

But it's gonna be hard as hell
It will be a challenge

To keep my mind off a body
It will be difficult to resist her body

That would make every rich man
Her body is attractive to rich men

Want to sell, sell, sell (seventy five, we need another, eighty five, eighty five here, sold!)
Her body is so attractive, rich men would pay a lot of money for it

Can I tell you what I'm thinkin' that you already know?
The performer wants to tell Pussy something she already knows

You need a motherfucker that respects your name"
Pussy deserves a man who respects her reputation

Now say it, Pussy Control (Are you ready?)
The performer repeats the term 'Pussy Control' and asks if the audience is ready for it

And the moral of this motherfucker is
The performer shares the moral of the story

Ladies, make'em act like they know
Women should expect men to respect them

You are, was, and always will be Pussy Control (Are you ready?)
Women are always in control and should never forget it

Peace and be wild (Aaah, Pussy Control)
The performer ends the story with a message and the term 'Pussy Control'

Say what, huh? (Oh)
The performer uses slang to emphasize the story

Oh no, don't you think about callin' her a ho (Are you ready?)
The performer warns against insulting women and repeats 'Are you ready?'

You juvenile delinquent
The performer insults someone for being immature

Best sit your ass down
It's best if the person sits down and listens

Talkin' about Pussy Control
The performer makes fun of the person using the term 'Pussy Control'

Huh, can you dig it?
The performer asks if the audience understands the story

Oh (Are you ready?)
The performer ends the story by repeating 'Are you ready?'
