Prince - Pop Life lyrics

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)

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

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

(Throw the bum out!)

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
