Prince - Vicki Waiting

(I'm of the, I'm of the mind to make some mookie ha, ha, ha
Phone book)

The phone rings, it's Vicki callin'
She wants me to come to the crib
See, conversation's better than bein' lonely
So I try my best to ad-lib
I told the joke about the woman
Who asked her lover "Why is your organ so small?"
He replied, "I didn't know I was playin' in a cathedral"
Vicki didn't laugh at all

This is where she wants to be
I am what she wants to see
I've never known a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki waiting
Alright

All is well in Gotham City
The sound of terror is all you hear
Sometimes a pistol takes the place of her body
Sometimes her body's here
But you see, when crime is your only love
All that matter is the present, the here and now
People, people, whatever floats this joker's boat
Is whatever this joker will bang

(This is where she wants to be)
I, I am what she wants to see
I've never known a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki waitin'
Oh yeah
Wait on, uh
Ooh, whoo

Talk of children still frightens me (ah, whoo)
Is my character enough to be (yeah, whoo)
One that deserves a copy made? (ever, ever)
This I one day, hope to see
Until then she's held at bay
By my animal-like persistence
Or maybe she's just too proud to say
That fate (fate) brought us together
And this is where she wants to stay

(This is where she wants to be)
I, I am what she wants to see
I've never known a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki waitin'
Oh

(This is where she wants to be, yeah)
I am what she wants to see (ah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
I've never known, (never known) a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki waitin'

All is well in Gotham town
(This is where she wants to be)
I am what she wants to see
I've never known a love so sweet
Still, I keep Vicki
Still, I keep Vicki
Still, I keep Vicki waiting (waiting)

uh-hu, uh-hu
Still, I keep Vicki
Still, I keep Vicki waiting

(This is where she wants to be)
