About Love Sign

"Love Sign" is a song by American musician Prince, from the 1-800-NEW-FUNK compilation album released by his independent record label NPG Records in 1994. "Love Sign" was the most successful song released from the album, and it is a duet with Nona Gaye, although Prince (known as "The Artist Formerly Known as Prince" at the time because of his name change to an unpronounceable symbol) is uncredited as a singer due to his contractual dispute with Warner Bros. Records. A promotional single was sent out to radio stations independently through Prince's record label NPG Records, and was not commercially released. The song has an anti-violence message and was most successful on the R&B charts (becoming a top 40 hit). more »

Love sign {fade in} 
Love sign (Get up) 
Love sign (Get up) 
Pop, pop, pop go the pistol 
Bang, bang, bang go the gun (Get up) 

[Chorus:] 
If you're sick of evil knocking on your door 
Throw up the love sign once and 4 ever more (2 signs of the times) 
If you'd rather make love and have a little fun 
Throw up the love sign everybody and not the gun (Time is passing, passing is time) 

In a chariot of red and gold 
The cool, fuzzy voice said "Come save your soul" 
Before the fear of rejection reared its head 
He stood before the masses and calmly said 

[Chorus]

In the day of where and why we all belong 
Don't nobody want to hear a silly love song 
And if they did then we would sing it on the news 
While you're aiming your gun at me and I'm aiming back at you 

[Chorus]
 
Pop, pop, pop go the pistol 
Bang, bang, bang go the gun (Get up) 
Pop, pop, pop go the pistol 
Bang, bang, bang go the gun (Get up) 
If you only had one year left to live (Get up) 
What good is the time you spend if you got no love to give? (Get up) 
Let's all get up off the front (get up off the front) and find a cause to back (cause to back) 
Then we could teach the babies replications of the act, of the act 
If you're sick of evil knocking on your door 
(Sick of evil knockin', yeah) 
Throw up the love sign once and forever more (to signs of the times) 
(Then ev..everybody love) 
If you'd rather make love and have a little fun 
(We can have a little fun) 
Throw up the love sign everybody and not the gun (Time is passing, passing is time) 
(Everybody, oh yeah) 
If you're sick of evil knocking on your door 
(Oh yeah) 
Throw up the love sign once and forever more (to signs of the times) 
If you'd rather make love and have a little fun 
(Make a little love now) 
Throw up the love sign everybody and not the gun 
(We can make love instead of guns, oh) (Time is passing, passing is time) 
Pop, pop, pop go the pistol 
Bang, bang, bang go the gun (x4) 
Show us the love sign, we want the love sign (Get up)
Show us the love sign (Get up) 
Show us the love sign (2 signs of the times), we want the love sign (Get up) 
Show us (to signs of the times) the love sign (Get up) 
Love sign 
(Pop, pop, pop go the pistol) 
(Bang, bang, bang go the gun) 
We want the love sign 
Love sign 
(Pop, pop, pop go the pistol) 
(Bang, bang, bang go the gun) 
Love sign 
(Pop, pop, pop go the pistol) 
(Bang, bang, bang go the gun) 
We want the love sign 
Love sign 
(Pop, pop, pop go the pistol) 
(Bang, bang, bang go the gun) {repeat to fade}
