[Verse 1]
She arrived on a 747
About 20 to 11
She comes to see him
Him as in me
She comes to see
And it's never complicated
Other women cannot fade it
Whenever I call
She gets dressed up and all

[Chorus]
Supercute
Maybe it's cause
She comes from East L.A
But every time I see her body on display
I gotta call her name from the DJ booth
Strobe light flash
And you know the truth
Baby got game
She'll take your loot
Keys to the crib
With no dispute
See her dancing in her birthday suit
Supercute

[Verse 2]
Together we wonder
How we got enslaved and why
It's time to get freedom for our people
And Jericho falls when we all discern the lie
Yo, why the man wanna lie?
I look at her eyes
Go wild, she smiles

[Chorus]
Supercute
Maybe it's cause
She comes from East L.A
But every time I see her body on display
I gotta call her name from the DJ booth
Strobe light flash
And you know the truth
Baby got game
She'll take your loot
Keys to the crib
With no dispute
See her dancing in her birthday suit

[Verse 3]
On a dare
I wanna see if she will share
The kinda toys she uses when I'm not there
None at all
She swears
I don't care
I make her buy another one
And a new dress to wear
Goes the toy against her curly hair
Now she must confess
How she really like to play
Or if she don't
I lower the speed
And bad words she'll say
Tell me how you play
How you play
Even in her anger
She's still

[Chorus]
Supercute
Maybe it's cause
She comes from East L.A
But every time I see her body on display
I gotta call her name from the DJ booth
Strobe light flash
And you know the truth
Baby got game
She'll take your loot
Keys to the crib
With no dispute
See her dancing in her birthday suit
Supercute
When you see her dancing in her birthday suit

[Outro]
Shake it around
When you see her dancing in her birthday suit
Supercute
Supercute

An American singer-songwriter, musician, multi-instrumentalist, and actor that produced 22 RIAA-platinum albums during his 40-year career, Prince may be known for one of many different things – his turn as “The Kid” in the iconic film/album/8 ½ minute ballad “Purple Rain”, being the writer behind the acclaimed anthem “Kiss,” rivaling Michael Jackson at the pinnacle of his career, being the inspiration behind censorship laws, or being the artist addressed as an unpronounceable symbol throughout the 1990s—but while many know of Prince, most don’t fully understand the impact his legacy left on this world.

Going by many aliases throughout his life, Prince Rogers Nelson was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on June 7, 1958 with his father’s (John L. Nelson) stage name as his own given one. Growing up, Prince suffered from serious epileptic seizures at a very young age, but he had wrote his first composition of many by age seven, and outside of his love for basketball, he wanted music to be his purpose in life. His tumultuous childhood, witnessing alcoholism and abuse, caused him to find refuge in neighbor André Cymone’s home in his teens, where the two competed in local band competitions, leading to Prince’s introduction to Morris Day alongside music with his cousin’s band 94 East, leading him to be courted by record labels and ultimately signed to Warner Bros. Records with complete creative control; at 19, his debut album, For You (1978) was released – Prince played all 19 instruments on the record.

Influenced by the likes of Miles Davis, Rick James, and James Brown, Prince desired to form a music dynasty and after the success of his next albums – the platinum-selling Prince (1979), the sexually-charged Dirty Mind (1980), and politically-motivated Controversy (1981) – he negotiated for the ability to form his own label and manage artists of his own. Prince’s trademark sexual/religious rhetoric within pop-and-dance, funk-rock sound gained him a following, but his opening slates for Rick James and The Rolling Stones were both negatively received and facing bankruptcy, the young artist began to reach for mainstream popularity. Cashing on the drug-influenced doomsday mania of the times, 1982’s 1999 easily achieved that mainstream appeal, landing him on MTV, music charts, and radio stations across the world.
