Prince - "Elephants & Flowers" (live Paisley Park 2002)

Prince
"Elephants & Flowers" LIVE
Paisley Park
June 25th, 2002
lyrics:
Boy is lonely on a burning hot summer night
He's looking for some action, he's looking 4 a fight
He's looking for a savior in a city full of fools
Maybe he just needs a good talker to give him a good talking to.
Can we talk baby? Strip down, strip down.
I think I'm gonna fall in love tonight.
Elephants and flowers, hot sweaty light paints a picture red and gold
On a crowd of naked bodies stripped down to their very souls
How can he find a shy angel in a city so bold (so bold)
He can't even find a place to dance, this is rock and roll.
Strip down, strip down, elephants and flowers
Is everybody ready? Here we go.
Love the one who is love, (love) the one who gives us the power, (power)
The one who made everything, (what?) elephants and flowers (what will he do?)
The one who will listen when all others will not.
There will be peace for those who love god a lot.
Elephants and flowers, strip down.
Think I'm gonna fall in love tonight.
When I do, there won't be no more (confusion)
There won't be no more (no tears)
There won't be no more enemies, so that eliminates all the fear
And there won't be no sorrow, (sorrow)
There won't be no pain, (no pain)
There won't be no ball and no chain
Strip down, strip down, elephants and flowers.
Boy is lonely on a burning hot summer night
He's looking for an angel to hold him 'til the morning light
Here we go.
Love the one who is love, (well) the one who gives us the power, (power)
The one who made everything, (everything) elephants and flowers (oh, yeah)
The one who will listen when all others will not. (all others will not)
There will be peace for those who love god a lot.
Here we go.
Love the one who is love, (love) the one who gives us the power, (power)
The one who made everything, (what?) elephants and flowers (what will he do?)
The one who will listen when all others will not.
There will be peace for those who love god a lot.

Clap your hands clap your hands . I just almost wrecked lol driving through downtown Phoenix

[@christophertracy2807]

I was in the front row when he did this - it was magic to hear a track like this one live.

“This a cut y’all”

[@sabrina28]

Love this song. 💜💜💜💜

[@LightYearsAwayFromHere]

How is he just not here anymore??!! My God this hurts so bad. I just can’t accept it, I just cannot. Losing a genius, the most complete artist ever and the definition of music is like...losing gravity, like losing the color blue, like 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom no longer creating water - how??

[@reginaldwebb2768]
