Accordion Girl Lyrics

She's an accordion girl
Built with an accordion swirl
She'll let you squeeze
And stretch her right over your chest
And I've heard some people say
She can be so hard to play
That whoever succeds
Will be bound to impress

And I suspect that she once had a lover
Who's memory haunts her still
And he's unaware of the girl he's created
And that his memory always will

He's made an accordion girl
Decked in mother of pearl
She's got a look
And a tone that just mellows
She's got b***ons, that you can press
Still got her makers' address
And she'll groan with a heave of her bellows
And I suspect that she once had a lover
A lover that made her give in
And he's unaware that he's left her suspended
Like a chord in a ballad that won't ever begin
She wasn't put on this world to be happy
She wasn't put on this world to be with you
She wasn't put here to find out the hard way
The permanent harm that a song can do

She wasn't put on this world to be happy
She wasn't put on this world to be with you
She wasn't put here to find out the hard way
Just how cold some keys can feel
Just how cold in your hand some keys can feel
