Verse 1

(0:18-)

|

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

|

Ah,

Chorus 1

(0:39-)

~~~~~~~~~

|

Fear, fear -she's the mother of vio-lence

|

making me tense to watch the way she breed

|

Fear, she's the mother of vio-lence

|

You know self-de- fense is all you need

It's getting hard to breathe

|

It's getting so hard to be-lieve

|

to be-lieve in any-thing at all

Verse 2

(1:26-)

|

Mouth all dry eyes blood shot

data stored on a microdot

Kicking the cloud with my moccasin shoes

|

T.V. dinner, T.V. news

|

Ha, ha, 'cos

Chorus2

(1:47-)

|

Fear, fear -she's the mother of vio-lence

|

don't make any sense to watch the way she breed

|

Fear, she's the mother of vio-lence

|

making me tense to watch the way she feed

| | |

The only way you know she's there

|

Is the subtle flavour in the air

| | |

Getting hard to breathe

|

hard to be-lieve in any-thing at all

|

Coda

(2:34-)
