Whats the matter with your life Is the poverty bringing you down? Is the mailman jerking you round? Did he put your million dollar check In someone elses box? Tell me, whats the matter with your world Was it a boy when you wanted a girl? (boy when you wanted a girl) Dont you know straight hair aint got no curl (no curl) Life it aint real funky Unless its got that pop Dig it Pop life Everybody needs a thrill Pop life We all got a space to fill Pop life Everybody cant be on top But life it aint real funky Unless its got that pop Dig it Tell me, whats that underneath your hair? Is there anybody living there? (anybody living there) You cant get over, if you say you just dont care (dont care) Show me a boy who stays in school And Ill show you a boy aware Dig it Pop life Everybody needs a thrill Pop life We all got a space to fill Pop life Everybody cant be on top But life it aint real funky Unless its got that pop Dig it Oh What you putting in your nose? Is that where all your money goes (is that where your money goes) The river of addiction flows You think its hot, but there wont be no water When the fire blows Dig it Pop life Everybody needs a thrill Pop life We all got a space to fill Pop life Everybody wants to be on top But life it aint real funky Unless its got that pop Everybody needs a thrill Pop life We all got a space to fill Pop life Everybody cant be on top But life it aint real funky Unless its got that pop
1984年 6月 26歲的美國音樂鬼才王子(Prince)主演歌舞片〔Purple Rain/紫雨〕 票房鼎盛 他並配合電影發行自寫自編自製的原聲帶(Paisley Park/Warner Bros.出版) 並與伴奏樂團革命(The Revolution)共同製作(雖然仍由王子主導) 單曲跟電影的成功讓原聲帶封王 蟬聯整整24週冠軍 至今在美國賣出13白金 全球兩千多萬張 將王子提升到麥可傑克森(Michael Jackson)一樣的歌壇天王地位
1985年4月 王子與革命樂團乘勝追擊 推出第七張錄音室大碟[Around the World in a Day] 仍由王子創作(除兩曲外), 並全權製作/編曲, 以及參與大部份樂器伴奏 [Pop Life/流行生活] 這回王子嘗試迷曲風, 樂風更豐富, 只是樂評好壞兩極。 雖然[Around the World in a Day]無法與〔Purple Rain/紫雨〕的大賣相提並論 但仍登上美國Billboard專輯榜王座, 為王子第二張美國榜冠軍 拿到雙白金(200萬張+) 英國榜#5 金唱片 在美國與國際銷售相對不錯, 穩定王子的超級巨星地位。
首支主打[Raspberry Beret]登上美國單曲榜亞軍 1985年7月, 王子與革命樂團推出美國第二單曲/大碟第三主打[Pop Life] 此曲由王子譜寫/製作成一首迷幻流行/放克曲, 節拍討巧 剛走紅的創作歌手席拉伊(Sheila E.)負責演奏鼓 [Pop Life]登上Billboard單曲榜#7 為王子事業第八首美國Top10熱門曲 副榜-黑人榜#8 舞曲榜#5 國際:澳大利亞#67 2016年, 王子去世後, 此曲重新入榜: 英國#60 德國#65 比利時#34 紐西蘭#44 法國#116 這是王子的流行放克佳作之一
