Mott The Hoople - Violence Lyrics

Artist: Mott The Hoople

Album: Mott

  • Songwriters: Ian Hunter, Mick Ralphs

I'm a missing link, poolroom stink, I can't talk
(Well that's too bad)
What's going on, something's wrong, I can't work

Can't go to school, the teacher's a fool, the preacher's a jerk
(Well that's such a drag)
Got nothing to do, street-corner blues and nowhere to walk

Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense
Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense

Gotta fight, nothing's right, livin' nowhere
(That's so sad)
Watch out for the gun, snake on the run, hide in my hair

You keep your mouth shut or you'll get cut 'cause ha ha I like to scare
(Well that you're so mad)
I'm a battery louse, a superstar mouse, I don't care

Get off my back or I'll attack, an' I don't owe you nothin'
(Okay)
Head for your hole, you're sick and you're old
An' I'm here to tell you something

Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense
Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense

Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense
Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense

Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense
Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense

Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense
Violence, violence
It's the only thing that'll make you see sense

[Incomprehensible]
