Violet The Organ Grinder.....Inspired By Cat ?

eye was on my way to another room when an image of you sweetly

appeared in the mirror perhaps you recall

u and eye were kneeling in the middle of a crystal ball..."

in sign o' the times prince and cat were kneeling in front of a ball, no?

"in the greatest concert of then all."

where's your stream of consciousness on this one ?

Maybe. I loved his concept during the Sign O' The Times era.

The lyrics to 'Violet the organ grinder' could be spawned out of the Cat experience. Eerie and catchy lyrics indeed.

No, I don't think so... Prince had a thing with "crystal ball" for a while, before Cat entered the picture, and the line about "in the greatest concert of then all" is a reference to intercourse.
