1/23/10 - Prince

Prince isn't necessarily known as a comedic singer. This can't be classified as anything else though. Unless you are Kobi LaCroix.

Apparently Prince is a Minnesota Vikings fan. To show his undying support, he created this song about the Purple and Gold. Is that a Minnesota thing? The Lakers, the Purple and Gold, were originally from Minnesota. The Vikings are Purple and Gold. The Mr. T/Barney Hybrid is Purple and wears gold chains. Luckily, this song is only about the Vikings. And it is more demented than funny in a strange, Prince/Symbol kind of way.

Prince: Purple and Gold:



Lyrics
the veil of the sky draws open
the roar of the chariots touch down
we r the ones who have now come again
and walk upon water like solid ground
as we approach the throne we won’t bow down
this time we won’t be denied

raise every voice and let it be known
in the name of the purple and gold

we come in the name of the purple and gold
all of the odds are in our favor
no prediction too bold
we are the truth if the truth can be told
long reign the purple and gold

the eyes say ready for battle
no need for sword in hand
we are all amped up like a rock n roll band
ready to celebrate every score
ready to fight the elegant war
ready to hear the crowd roar

that’s what we came for
and so much more
in the name of the purple and gold

our spirits may be tired
our bodies may be worn
but since this day is our destiny
our history – that’s why we must be
forever strong as the wind that blows the Vikings’ horn
in the name of the purple and gold
