prince and the new power generation - lauriann lyrics
[intro]
uh, when you get a little older we can do a song about your girl (oh, alright, hahaha)
1, 2, 1, 2
do+do+doo, do+do+doo, do+do+do+do+doo
do+do+doo, do+do+doo, do+do+do+do+doo
[verse 1]
on a monday
not like any other monday
lauriann suddenly came
the rhythm of her walk
like a tall+tale talkin’
ain’t a boy around her ever been tame
[verse 2]
derek got the deed
that’s on the raincheck tip
but the friendship slip
and i started with knowing time
as quiet as it’s kept
all her friends met death quick
lauriann asked me “honey, what’s on your mind?”
[chorus]
lauriann, can’t you understand?
i wanna be your man
lauriann, can’t you understand?
i wanna be your man
[post+chorus]
though we may not be together forever
we can live for the time that we are
you’re the only one who treats me like a human
not like a superstar
[verse 3]
everybody said lauriann was a good girl
why? i’ll never know (ooh, lauriann)
she kissed me like she was born to be bad
those kisses worth more than gold (ooh, lauriann)
[verse 4]
every now and then she would pet the dolphin
and i would swear she was t+t+touching my soul
the bed started shaking
maybe i was nervous
maybe i was falling in love
maybe i don’t know
[chorus]
lauriann, can’t you understand? (ooh+wee+ooh)
i wanna be your man (i wanna be your man)
lauriann, can’t you understand? (lauriann)
i wanna be your man
[post+chorus]
though we may not be together forever
we can live for the time that we are
you’re the only one who treats me like a human
not like a superstar (oh+ooh)
[bridge]
lauriann
[verse 5]
holy bells were ringing in st. louis park
as 2 lucky souls said “i do” (ooh, lauriann)
one of them souls should’ve been me, lauriann
and the other one should’ve been you (ooh)
[chorus]
lauriann, can’t you understand?
i wanna be your man
lauriann, can’t you understand?
i wanna be your man (ahh)
[post+chorus]
you’re the only one who treats me like a human
not like a superstar
[verse 6]
last i heard you were lookin’ twice as fine
twice as fine at the end of the day that we said goodbye
must have been a man who was never in love
and said that men aren’t supposed to cry
[chorus]
lauriann, can’t you understand?
i wanna be your man
lauriann, can’t you understand?
i wanna be your man
[post+chorus]
though we may not be together forever (though we may not be together forever)
we can live for the time that we are (we can live for the time that we are)
you’re the only one who treats me like a human
not like a superstar
[outro]
hey, hey, hey
lauriann (wee+ooh)
