Organ Grinder Songtext

von Moxy Fruvous

(Jian)
There's a guy down at Queen and Bay (Hey Organ Grinder!)
Almost see him there every day (Hey Organ Grinder!)
There's not so much he can say (Hey Organ Grinder!)
There's not so much he can play (Hey Organ Grinder!)
No motor car, no home, no wife
But that don't mean he don't have a life

Hey Organ Grinder!

(Murray)
He'll grind his way into young girl's hearts (Hey Organ Grinder!)
He grinds up a batch of mince meat tarts (Hey Organ Grinder!)
He's very wise, he's very old (Hey Organ Grinder!)
He does his thing when it's very cold (Hey Organ Grinder!)
He hears 'em shout again and again
Get that monkey on a big, big chain

Hey Organ Grinder!

(The King is dead)

(Dave)
Organ Grinder sent to jail (What?) (Hey Organ Grinder!)
He got bags and bags of mail (Hey Organ Grinder!)
People from the world outside (Hey Organ Grinder!)
Miss him and Rhesus by his side (Hey Organ Grinder!)
No music on the street today
Incarcerated, not OK!

Hey Organ Grinder!

(Mike)
Country music has its charms (Hey Organ Grinder!)
Pretty eyes then fire alarms (Hey Organ Grinder!)
When Organ Grinder had a smoke (Hey Organ Grinder!)
Little Rhesus fast awoke (Hey Organ Grinder!)
Burnt the whole place to the ground
Along with that new country sound

Hey Organ Grinder!

(Jian)
Organ Grinder at the door (Hey Organ Grinder!)
(Murray)
Won't say what he's looking for (Hey Organ Grinder!)
(Dave)
Sent his monkey round the back (Hey Organ Grinder!)
(Mike)
Gave my wife a heart attack (Hey Organ Grinder!)
Took her away, left me behind,
It's not my organs he wants to grind!

Hey Organ Grinder!
