It's a whole song:
Well you're in your little room
and you're working on something good
but if it's really good
you're gonna need a bigger room
and when you're in the bigger room
you might not know what to do
you might have to think of
how you got started sittin' in your little room
Little Room - White Stripes
I love the message of the lyrics.

OK guys-I'm quite impressed...I never would have got that many. I must have been in a coma during the 80's.
You were better off. I despised most of those.

Wow...haven't even thought of that song in eons. Thanks for jogging that memory. Great tune.
I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide;
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side.
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."
She said, "I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around.

I offer'd her my hand,
She took me by the arm.
I knew that very instant,
She meant to do me harm.

Were there ever more obscure lyrics?
A sad blue eyed drummer rehearses outside
A black spider dancing on top of his eye
Red legged chicken stands ready to strike
And everything emptying into white.

I believe college courses are taught dissecting "The Weight."
She's bad, nobody is badder
But she got more crabs than a seafood platter.

brilliant! as my guiness buddy would say
But she didn't see the movie cause she hadn't read the book first.
maybe it's not a great line. i just remember it because it took me five years to figure it out. i should've realized, prince being the writer, that it was all about sex.
see the movie = do it
read the book = get to know the person
Oooooo. Which cut is that from?
Let me take a guess. "Little Red Corvette"? It has the same cadence.
Haven't read the whole thread, but my favorite line from a song is Elton John's "Laughing like children
Living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers..."
