Dear Prince From Minneapolis

Dear Prince from Minneapolis

Please represent

No moons over Miami

Or product-placed breasts

Just play your guitar

For your pests from the Midwest


Do it for Lovey and Dungy

And Obama and Oprah

The Rainbow Children

Of the now and

Not-distant future


We'll be rooting for the home team

The Purple and the Gold

T.C. and Jackie and Arnellia

Shout-outs to St. Paul

Northside and Southside

And everyone in between

Can't hardly wait to see you

Do your sex machine thing


Yes, my twin brother

We've all still got faith

That you'll get our tongues wagging

And send us to bed

Then at the water cooler on Monday

We'll talk about "Head"
