Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To turn me on
I just need your body baby
From dusk till dawn
You don't need experience
To turn me out
You just leave it all up to me
I'm gonna show you what it's all about
You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss,
Oh oh
You got to not talk dirty, baby
If you want to impress me
You can't be to flirty, mama
I know how to undress me, yeah
I want to be your fantasy
Maybe you could be mine
You just leave it all up to me
We could have a good time
Don't have to be rich
To be my girl
Don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss
Yes, oh oh oh
Ah
I think I want to dance, uhh, ooohh
Gotta, gotta, oh
Little girl Wendy's parade
Gotta, gotta, gotta
Women not girls rule my world
I said they rule my world
Act your age, mama (not your shoe size)
Not your shoe size
Maybe we could do the twirl
You don't have to watch Dynasty
To have an attitude
You just leave it all up to me
My love will be your food
Yeah
You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss
The song "Kiss" by Prince and the Revolution is a classic 80s pop-funk track with a catchy chorus and suggestive lyrics. The song is essentially about the singer's lustful desire for a woman, but the lyrics are presented in a playful and fun way. The first two verses tell the woman that she doesn't need to be beautiful, experienced, or rich to attract the singer's attention. He just wants her body and her time. The chorus repeats the famous line "I just want your extra time and your kiss," emphasizing that physical affection is all he wants from her.
In the third verse, the singer gives the woman some tips on how to impress him, telling her not to talk dirty or be too flirty. He wants her to be his fantasy and promises to show her a good time. The Bridge section features Prince encouraging Wendy (presumably Wendy Melvoin, a member of the Revolution) to dance and for the women to act their age instead of their shoe size. The song's message seems to be that physical attraction and chemistry are the most important elements in a romantic relationship, and that material wealth and social status are not necessary.
Overall, "Kiss" is a fun and upbeat track that showcases Prince's knack for writing catchy pop songs infused with funk and rock influences.

inspectorbudget Here are the lyrics, basically a silly argument skit. "
Woman overboard, everybody on the ground
10 toes goin’ up, 10 toes goin’ down
Got the gun pointin’ at ‘cha
We’re never gonna cut our hair
(Come here, let me cut that hair) No!
Gotta, gotta
(My body wanna tell U 2 take control)
(This way 2 this purple soul)
Oh, pretty mama, I think I wanna ride
Sophie, 4 God’s sake
If U touch the television, I’ll kill U Sophie
Sol, can U please change the channel 4 God’s sake?
I don’t care, leave it alone, sit down!
I can’t stand David Letterman, he looks like a banker
U don’t have 2 watch Dynasty 2 have an attitude
Leave it all up 2 me, my love will be, will be your food
Everybody will have short hair
Let’s cut it, mama! (Pretty mama)
I think I wanna ride
Put the daddy in the front seat, me and the girl outside
I just want your extra time and your ..... kiss
Oh my God, isn’t that Prince on television, Sol? {fade out}
OK Sophie, it’s obvious
No, wait a minute, I bought this television
Why’d... why U ruin it 4 me 4 God’s sake?
Is he the strangest lookin’ thing U’ve ever seen or what?
U wanna talk strange Sophie? OK, let's talk strange
Sol, don’t U touch that channel!
Leave it alone, Sol!
Sophie, U’re strange, I’m changin’ the channel
Sol, do U... do U value your life?
Sit down Sol!"

One of my best memories of my grandfather is him watching Prince perform on tv and saying. “Wow, the lady can really dance.”
