You have what is known as an "earworm" or "ohrworm" (German for "ear worm"). A catchy tune has inserted itself into your head.
There is no perfect cure - you can change what the earworm is playing, though. Go listen to something like "Somebody To Love" by the Boogie Pimps, for example.

Turn on the radio or a CD, so you can drown out that song in your head. It should help you get Purple Rain off your brain. Or just picture Prince knocking on your door to ask you to stop. Ew.

Sing a different song. Listen to a CD like a Kurt Karr CD.

You really only have two options: 1. Become a Prince impersonator and open a Las Vegas show…or 2. Go to Lacuna Inc. and have the lyrics removed from your brain.

I listen to the radio and usually find another song that takes it away. Then again you could be singing achey breaky heart
