X'S FACE - Prince

A few months ago or maybe it was years

It was a heartbreak and so many tears

How she gonna make it out here on her own

A body like that should never be alone

A kiss on the stairway, another man’s embrace

How was she to know, just what was taking place?

Too busy with the jugular and how it taste

To remember what she saw in the X’s face

The X’s face

The X’s face

Long time ago or maybe yesterday

You and I in chariots, on our way

Purple celebration for what we’ve learned

But for every battle won, there are scars and burns

For every broken heart, there’s another will mend

Who needs enemies when you got friends

For every open door there’s something in the way

Last time we checked it was the X’s face

The X’s face

The X’s face

Everybody know about the X’s face

Black don’t crack

Beige don’t age

Go and take that banana

Then get back in your cage

Oh Lord

Ooh ooh ah hah ah ah

The X’s face

Go and take that banana, take it

The X’s face

Get it, I said you could have it

Oh no

The X’s face
