GOLDEN EARRING lyrics : "Violins"

(G.Kooymans/B.Hay)
And the classic way is still on play
Violins bitter sweet

String quartet, pass around the hat
You broke my heart, don't you hurt my head


After Violet and me, saw the Paganini movie
We took a walk around the block to digest
The grand finale

A street-music man with shades and cane
Played the fiddler insane
For a case load of spare change

And the smiles of people passing
Between morning paper sins and waves of violins
It said they found him dead

His bow had made him bad friends

Cold blooded, warm hearted violin

Hooked on high speed energy
Cold blooded, warm hearted violin
Cats gut pumpin' adrenalin

Warm blooded, cold hearted violins
See 'm live tonight in the city


And the classic way, still on play
Violins bitter sweet
String quartet, pass around the hat

You broke my heart, don't you hurt my head
I've gotta find a little peace of mind
Cause the real thing is a mean thing


I guess nobody knew, the Barcelona Zoo
Has an albino monkey, that can trigger the mood

And provoke monkey motions
So when the %#@! flies high
Through the Barcelona sky

The crowd stands by, a cheering

Cold blooded, warm hearted violin

Hooked on high speed energy
Cold blooded, warm hearted violin
Cats gut pumpin' adrenalin

Warm blooded, cold hearted violins
See them lives tonight in the cityI can hear 'm playin'
Kind a light 'n neat

All the gals 're swayin'
The guys are in for meat
It's all cute 'n rosy

Till the needle hits a crack
Listen to that screech repeatin'
Watch the flags go slack

Listen to that screech repeatin'
Watch the flags go slack
