Nothing Prepares U 4...

We formerly presumed you mad

Though artistically rather rad

The artist 2 B known as Dad

Conceived a little while ago

And out in several months or so

The baby known as M-Bryo

So welcome 2 the parent fold

Prepare 2 put your sleep on hold

Is this a Sign O' Getting Old?

Forget the days of purple rain

The beret's in the wash again

And raspberry's not the only stain

For nothing can compare U know

When Pampers, toys and baby-gro

Are strewn around the studio

Then proud with pram in Paisley Park

Oblivious as the fans remark

The artist known as Patriarch
