The Lyrics

I'm just mad about Merlot
Pinot Noir Cabernet
I'm just mad about Orchid
Amethyst Indigo

They call me purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple

I'm just mad about Violet
lilac and aubergine
I'm just mad about cerise
thistle wisteria

They call me purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple

Plum grape magenta fuschia
It's between red and blue
Mauve heliotrope eggplant
It's between red and blue

They call me purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple

(So purple, he's so purple)

Electrical sangria
Is gonna be a sudden craze
Electrical sangria
Is bound to be the very next phase

They call it purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple

Dried plums -- yeah
I'm just mad about them
I'm just mad about dried plums
They get mad inside me

They call me purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple
(Quite rightly)
They call me purple purple

(Oh so purple, oh so purple)
