Lyrics: Violet The Organ Grinder
Album: Unknown
Artist: Prince
 

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
