Violet the Organ Grinder Songtext

von Prince & The New Power Generation

[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
