Prince
Pope
[Intro: Bernie Mac and Prince]
(You don't understand)
(I ain't scared of you muthafuckas, kick it)

(Stir it like coffee)
The Pope
(Stir it like **** coffee)
The Pope, uh
(What the hell?)
This is the Pope

[Verse 1: Prince]
Oh, your car got mags that be dippy dippy dope
But the whole damn nation got the same (Oh)
Honey only flock to the bee, that's the Pope
Not the President with government lame
Put me on a slow movin' parliamentary hackin' bandwagon
You could put me little ass in the grave
Every time you want it, I'll be live, bring a date
I mean computer, when it's over, press save

[Chorus: Prince & Mayte and Bernie Mac ]
So you can be the President (Kick it)
I'd rather be the Pope (I'd rather be, so help me)
Yeah, you can be the side effect (Baby)
I'd rather be the dope (Rather be the dope)
(I ain't scared of you muthafuckas, kick it)
[Verse 2: Prince and Bernie Mac]
Call your girl named Sally and you figure you were chill (Chill)
Then you find out I'm the reason Sally's on the pill (Pill)
What am I supposed ro do when the President can't get nothin' passed?
Find an alley, find an alley, undress Sally right in front of your ass
(Well, she helped me once again)

[Chorus: Prince & Mayte]
I say, you can be the President (Kick it)
I'd rather be the Pope (I'd rather be, so help me)
Yeah, you can be the side effect (Baby)
I'd rather be the dope (Fuck that)

[Bridge]
The Pope
(Oh no, motherfucker, not today)
Pope
You can be the Presidenté (Rather be the Pope)
So help me

[Verse 3]
Who's the funky drummer with the crooked little sticks? (Sticks)
He might have better luck if he was drummin' with his dick (Dick?)
If you don't play the piccolo, why you wanna lick?
Now check the drum solo and tell me not to kick it
[Solo]
(Seek and destroy)
(It'll fuck you up)
I love the taste of unpredictable licks
A loop is a loop is a loop, uh
A loop is a loop is a loop, uh (Fuck that)
A loop is a loop is a loop is a loop
Is a loop is a loop is a loop

[Verse 4]
Your car got mags that be dippy dippy dope
But the whole damn nation got the same (Oh)
Honey only flock to the bee, that's the Pope
Not the President with government lame
Put me on a slow movin' parliamentary hackin' bandwagon
You will put me little ass in the grave
Every time you want it, I'll be live, bring a date
I mean computer, when it's over, press save

[Chorus: Prince & Mayte]
So you can be the President (Kick it)
I'd rather be the Pope (I rather be, so help me)
You can be the side effect (Baby)
I'd rather be the dope (You, you, you)
The Pope
[Outro: Mayte]
You can be the President (Fuck that)
Rather be the Pope
Baby, so help me please, Oh
Press save
I love you
Peace
(You don't understand)
(Oh)
