Prince Wrote a Slow Jam About Donald Trump and It Is Glorious

We all know that Prince was a brilliant songwriter who could make anything—from casual sex to partying down before the nuclear apocalypse—sound cool. That skill even applies to loathsome politicians like Donald Trump.

Among the many musical treasures he left us is a song called “Donald Trump (Black Version),” which he penned for R&B group the Time for their 1990 album, Pandemonium. It’s a slow jam about a man offering to be an alternate, perhaps sexier, version of the now-GOP candidate.

BuzzFeed breaks down the lyrics:

Donald Trump (black version), maybe that’s what you need.
A man that fulfills your every wish, your every dream.
Donald Trump (black version), come on take a chance.
A 1990s love affair, the real romance.
