Riff: Prince – “Marz”

Sep 30, 2014

Lost my job at Micky D’s/For givin’ away too much food for free/But I couldn’t watch another black child go to school/With nothing to eat

from Marz lyrics by Prince

Prince playing with a few different genres and conquering them each one by one. It’s not exactly punk or rock, it’s a blend of both, crafted by the hands of a master mixologist. It’s a stand up and be heard jam – one that demands that we focus our attention on the kids. Yes, Prince loves the kids.
