Organ Grinder Lyrics


There’s a creature that no one knows

Bedtime story that should’ve been told

It steals the children and takes ‘em away

To the nice birthday party full of despair

Hush little child don’t dare to cry

The party is about to start

So you better smile

I’ll bake the cake from your flesh and your mind

Which pretty notes shall my organ grind

1…2…3…4…

Daddy’s knocking at your door

5…6…7…8…

You better not hesitate

1…2…3…4…

He is gonna get some more

5…6…7…8…

Wait and it will be too late

Soon the last tear falls

The sun grows dark

The way home’s lost

Forever

Still I hear his laughter in my ears

Never-ending fears have a hold on me

Now takes those clothes off you

And close that door behind you

Before I put you in the cake

I better have a little taste

Now here’s a little toy for the princess

The doll brings you closer to madness

I’m a fun one

A dirty dirty old man

And I do just what a man can

Soon the last tear falls

The sun grows dark

The way home’s lost

Forever

Still I hear his laughter in my ears

Never-ending fears have a hold on me

Now there’s a party no one knows

Only the one who has found the doll

The ceremony ends

Some cake we will eat

It’s tasty

It’s moist

And it’s made of your meat

Soon the last tear falls

The sun grows dark

The way home’s lost

Forever

Still I hear his laughter in my ears

Never-ending fears have a hold on me
