Violence Out Tonight by Little Comets
So he offers her his coat
In return for her devotion
For he loves her like a boat
That he keeps out on the ocean
He says: �I'll tell you lover
That I don�t need no other�s arms at all�
And as he fixes her a look
All the innocence that she mistook for charm
Dies in the vacuum of his startling deep emotion
There's violence out tonight
There's violence out tonight
There's violence out tonight, tonight
There's violence out tonight
As they step into the dark
Only moonlight hides his treason
And the shadows skip like sharks
Through the gasps of air between them
She says: �Becalm your hands boy I thought
restraint was now your sentiment of choice?�
But as his fingers strike her blouse
All the words that he espoused
Lie deftly scattered on the ground amidst
the buttons he's torn open
There's violence out tonight
There's violence out tonight, tonight
In every room, in every heart
