Recently I visited London
In defiance of the flimsy laws
But I was caught and given a task
In lieu of a heavy fine
I was told to count
All the purple stations
In the city and elsewhere
When it was safe to do so
I was further instructed to travel
Only on peak time purple trains
Or my fine would be doubled
Although he is no longer with us
I still carry Purple Rain by Prince
In my chic chill canvas bag
This was to while away the gentle hours
Between my peak time purple trains
