Mother of violence
par Peter Gabriel
lyricscopy.com
Walking the street with her naked feet,
So full of rhythm but I can´t find the beat.
Snapping her heels, clicking her toes,
Everybody knows just where she goes.
Fear, Fear, she´s the mother of Violence,
Making me tense to watch the way she breed.
Fear, she´s the mother of Violence,
You know self-defense is all you need.
It´s getting hard to breathe,
It´s getting so hard to believe,
To believe in anything at all.
Mouth all dry, eyes bloodshot,
Data stored on a microdot.
Kicking the cloud with my moccasin shoes,
TV dinner, TV news.
Fear, Fear, she´s the mother of Violence,
Don´t make any sense to watch the way she breed.
Fear, she´s the mother of Violence,
Making me tense to watch the way she feed.
The only way you know she´s there
Is the subtle flavor in the air.
Getting hard to breathe,
Getting hard to believe in anything at all
But Fear.
So full of rhythm but I can´t find the beat.
Snapping her heels, clicking her toes,
Everybody knows just where she goes.
Fear, Fear, she´s the mother of Violence,
Making me tense to watch the way she breed.
Fear, she´s the mother of Violence,
You know self-defense is all you need.
It´s getting hard to breathe,
It´s getting so hard to believe,
To believe in anything at all.
Mouth all dry, eyes bloodshot,
Data stored on a microdot.
Kicking the cloud with my moccasin shoes,
TV dinner, TV news.
Fear, Fear, she´s the mother of Violence,
Don´t make any sense to watch the way she breed.
Fear, she´s the mother of Violence,
Making me tense to watch the way she feed.
The only way you know she´s there
Is the subtle flavor in the air.
Getting hard to breathe,
Getting hard to believe in anything at all
But Fear.
