Gramophone Man Lyrics

Woke up last friday morning
Went and saw Mr. Gramophone man
And the many magic presents
That he keeps inside his head and his hand

Gram man
Gram man
Gram man
Gram man

Gramophone eyes that tell you to sing
And a gramophone mind that wants what you bring
You find out too soon as you notice his ring

And watch the time, the world is waiting
Give a tune for Mr. Gramophone man
Jack and Jill falling down off their hill
Singing songs for Mr. Gramophone man

Going home last Friday evening
We'd sung our songs for Mr. Gramophone man
Seen the many empty presents
That he keeps inside his head and his hand


Gram man
Gram man
Gram man
Gram man
Gramophone eyes that tell you to sing
And a gramophone mind that wants what you bring
You find out too soon as you notice his ring

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
