Prince - Melody Cool [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
I've seen a many bridges in my time and crossed every one of them
With no trouble at all (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I had trials and tribulations, heartaches and pains (well that's alright)
Survived them all baby (uh huh, say it, say it!)
Hmph, I'm still Melody, and I'm still Cool
Melody Cool

[Verse 2]
They call me Melody Cool (Melody, Melody)
I was here long before you (Melody, Melody)
If you're good I will love you, (Melody) but I'm nobody's fool (Melody)
I'm Melody Cool

[Verse 3]
When I was born there were tidal waves (Melody, Melody)
Whole town went under nobody saved (Melody, Melody)
At every funeral it rained every time I sang
Melody Cool

[Bridge]
I have been here much longer, (Melody) longer than you (Melody)
I'm Melody Cool

[Verse 4]
Well now, everybody running around talking about saving souls
When they know good and plenty well they got enough trouble
Trying to save their own
(alright, say it, say it girl)

(Melody...Melody...Melody)

[Verse 5]
Go on, go on
Every woman and every man (Melody)
One day they just got to understand (Melody)
That if we play in the same key everything will be
Melody Cool

[Verse 6]
(Melody, Melody, Melody, Melody)
What's your name? (Melody, Melody)
New power wave your hand, everybody sing out across the land
Say hey hey hey (hey hey hey)
Say hey hey hey (hey hey hey)
Everybody say hey hey hey (hey hey hey)

They call me Melody Cool (Melody, Melody, Melody)

[Verse 7]
Look here young un
Let me give you a piece of good advice, (Melody)
And I do get paid for counseling
It isn't no big I's and little U's in my life
So that's why you see they call me Melody Cool (Melody, Melody Cool, Melody)
I was here long before U (Melody, long before you)
If Youre good (Melody) i will love you but I'm nobody's fool (Melody)
I'm Melody Cool
(Melody, Melody Cool, Melody... long before you)
