[Verse 1] Guitar on the wall looking proud Violin sings high, sings loud Both got shine, both got swing I’m not saying they don’t mean a thing But in the back, off the stage There’s a secret turning every page Slim little body, velvet sound Best one’s hiding, not showing off now [Pre-Chorus] You keep asking what’s next I’ve got one more name It’s not the one you guessed But it wins the game [Chorus] Vee-oh-la, vee-oh-la (vee-oh-la, vee-oh-la) Sneak in and steal ya (best thing, best thing) Vee-oh-la, vee-oh-la No one sees it coming It’s the best kept one And it keeps on humming [Verse 2] Guitar can sparkle, violin can cry Vee-oh-la sits right in between the sky Rich little bark, honeyed glow The cool kids don’t always know Wood under the chin, bow in the hand It doesn’t need to be understood to stand Low enough to hold the room High enough to bloom, bloom, bloom [Pre-Chorus] You keep asking what’s next I’ve got one more name It’s not the one you guessed But it wins the game [Chorus] Vee-oh-la, vee-oh-la (vee-oh-la, vee-oh-la) Sneak in and steal ya (best thing, best thing) Vee-oh-la, vee-oh-la No one sees it coming It’s the best kept one And it keeps on humming [Bridge] Guitar can shine, violin can fly But vee-oh-la walks in and changes the sky Dark gold voice, soft thunder line Hidden instrument, now it’s mine [Chorus] Vee-oh-la, vee-oh-la (vee-oh-la, vee-oh-la) Sneak in and steal ya (best thing, best thing) Vee-oh-la, vee-oh-la No one sees it coming It’s the best kept one And it keeps on humming
