Violet the Organ Grinder appreciation Does anyone love this song and video as much as I do? I remember getting the Gett Off maxi single and hearing this song. I could not believe how Prince could transform Gett Off into a completely different song. Today, I think I like Violet the Organ Grinder more than Gett Off. I could listen to this song all day! Also,if you haven't seen the video for this song,find it and watch it. Prince is too gorgeous in it Violet the Organ Grinder CHORUS: I am Violet the Organ Grinder And I grind all the live long day I live 4 the organ that I am grinding I'll die, but I won't go away Gett Off {repeated throughout song} CHORUS Ooh, wait a minute, I think U better trip on this {x2} I was on my way 2 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 And it now serves as a reminder on the wall Of U 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 4 the organ, I am grinding I'll die, but I will not go away Did U know that I still have your stockings? I keep 'em in a drawer next 2 your brassiere Come hither, my sweet, lend me your attention, Come hither, lend my your ear I do believe 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 am the one that lives in your heart U love me, no matter what U say Swear U don't miss the organ grinder Grinding on U every day I am Violet the Organ Grinder 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 U gave me And I placed them right under my bed And I pumped and I pumped 'Til the 'gasmer just jumped From my feet 2 the top of my head, oh boy! (CHORUS) I'm Violet the Organ Grinder And I grind all the live long day I live 4 the organ, that I'm 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 U cried, I became your emotion And if U ever cry like that again I'll be here (CHORUS) Cuz I'm Violet the Organ Grinder And I grind all the live long day I live 4 the organ, that I'm grinding I'll die, but I won't go away Not even... (Gangster) {x3} (Who turned the mother out) {x2} {repeat phrase} CHORUS | |

I remember the first time I too watched the video and saw that and thought
The part that made me giggle was: Well I can deal with a sucker if he's in your mouth But I can't deal with insincere But whoa baby: I took all the pictures U gave me And I placed them right under my bed And I pumped and I pumped 'Til the 'gasmer just jumped From my feet 2 the top of my head, oh boy! | |

I love his expression when he say's "Oh Boy!" | |

Isn't it awesome that you can pull out a tape & have Prince hump a bed on command for you? | |

one of the highest points of his career. better than get off, better than D&P, better than anything he´s done since. Unreleasable of course, but its a secret for us fans.
greatness. | |

I don't like it better than Gett Off, but it is a bangin' song. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."
