chorus:
|
I am Violet the Organ Grinder
|
and I grind all the live long day
|
I live for the organ, that I am grinding
|
I'll die, but I won't go away
|
|
I am Violet the Organ Grinder
|
and I grind all the live long day
|
I live for the organ, that I am grinding
|
I'll die, but I won't go away
|
|
Ooh, wait a minute, I think u better trip on this
|
Ooh, wait a minute, I think u better trip on this
|
|
I was on my way to another room
|
when an image of u sweetly
|
appeared in the mirror
|
perhaps u recall
|
u and I were neatly
|
in the middle of a Crystal Ball
|
that now serves as a reminder
|
on the wall of u and I the organ grinder
|
in the greatest concert of them all
|
|
I am Violet the Organ Grinder {chorus in the background}
|
and I grind all the live long day
|
I live for the organ, that I am grinding
|
I'll die, but I won't go away
|
|
did u know that I still have your stockings?
|
I keep 'em in a drawer next to your brazier
|
come hither, my sweet, lend me your attention,
|
come hither lend my your ear
|
I do believe that my piano was stolen
|
I do believe that u want me near
|
Well I can deal with a sucker
|
if he's in your mouth,
|
but I can't deal with insincere
|
I'm the one that lives in your heart
|
u love me, no matter what u say
|
swear you don't miss the organ grinder
|
grinding on you every day
|
|
I am Violet the Organ Grinder (I am Violet the Organ Grinder)
|
and I grind all the live long day (and I grind all the live long day)
|
(check this out)
|
Ooh, wait a minute, I think u better trip on this
|
|
I took all the pictures you gave me,
|
and I placed them right under my bed
|
and I pumped and I pumped
|
'til the 'gasm much as jumped
|
from my feet to the top of my head, oh boy!
|
|
I'm Violet the Organ Grinder {chorus in the background}
|
and I grind all the live long day
|
I live for the organ, that I am grinding
|
I'll die, but I will not go away
|
|
Ooh, wait a minute, I think u better trip on this
|
|
Like a puppy, I licked your devotion
|
from your neck from your eyes from your ears
|
when you cry, I became your emotion,
|
and if u ever cry like that again
|
I'll be here
|
|
'cause I'm Violet the Organ Grinder {chorus in the background}
|
and I grind all the live long day
|
I live for the organ, that I'm grinding
|
I'll die, but I won't go away
|
|
not even...
|
[peace to the mutha]
|
(who turned the mother out)
|
|
[peace to the mutha]
|
(who turned the mother out)
|
|
I am Violet the Organ Grinder
|
and I grind all the live long day
|
I live for the organ, that I am grinding
|
I'll die, but I won't go away
