Mother Of Violence - Peter Gabriel

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 blood shot

Data stored in microdot

Kicking the cloud with my moccasin shoes

T.V. dinner, T.V. 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

Hard to believe in anything at all, but fear
