Lyrics

[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 [Ad lib] Ooh, wait a minute, I think you better trip on this Ooh, wait a minute, I think you better trip on this [Verse 1] I was on my way to another room When an image of you sweetly Appeared in the mirror Perhaps you recall You and I were neatly In the middle of a Crystal Ball That now serves as a reminder On the wall of you and I, the organ grinder In the greatest concert of them all [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 [Verse 2] Did you know that I still have your stockings? I keep 'em in a drawer next to your brassiere 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 you 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 You love me, no matter what you say Swear you don't miss the organ grinder Grinding on you every day [Chorus] 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) [Ad lib] Ooh, wait a minute, I think you better trip on this [Verse 3] 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! [Chorus] I'm 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 [Ad lib] Ooh, wait a minute, I think you better trip on this [Bridge] 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 you ever cry like that again I'll be here [Chorus] 'Cause I'm 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 [Ad lib] Not even... (Peace to the mutha) (Who turned the mother out) [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
