"Arrogance" Lyrics

Buy from iTunes: Prince

Why are U so arrogant?
(Here he is)
Yeah (Here… here he is)
Ha, ha, ha (Here… here… here he is)

What make a man wanna rule the world?
(A double A double arrogance!) (U got it)
Make him man enough 2 say he 50-50 girl
(A double A double arrogance!) (U got it)
What make a man wanna curse and swear?
(A double A double arrogance!) (U got it)
Then blame it on heaven cuz he already there
Pimp rag, tootsie pop and a cane!

What make a man wanna play guitar?
(A double A double arrogance!) (U got it)
Same thing that make him wanna be a star
(A double A double arrogance!) (U got it)
What make him wanna see his name in lights?
(A double A double arrogance!) (U got it)
It was the same thing that made Eve take the first bite
Pimp rag, tootsie pop and a cane!
{Crowd noise in the background vocals}
(There he is - get him!)
(Don't make me get up)
Like a flame she came and I was no longer cold
That's a little shady
4 this lady was only 16 years old
