My mother said
When I was small
"You see those people
We're not like those people"

My father said
And this is what he said
"If you need a lesson
I'll teach you a lesson"
Alright
Right, right, right

Violence forever
Violence forever and...
Violence forever?

'Bout 5 years old
Heroes brave and bold
Set my heart beating
My senses overheating

For justice fighters, silver riders
Who always beat the bad guy
Got to beat the villain real bad
They beat him hard, hard, hard

Violence forever
Violence forever and...
Violence forever?
Violence forever?

Until it all comes 'round again
And again

From my bed at night
I see the world is turning
Hope we're getting it right
Yeah, someone must be learning
I'm, I'm ready to learn
I'm, I'm ready to trust
This time
Or hope this time

Violence forever

My guru said
"Desire is death"
Keep your step gentle
So damn transcendental

Western man say
"Freedom's on it's way"
Let's kill lots and lots of people
Yeah, lots and lots of people
Alright
Right, right, right

Violence forever
Violence forever and...
Violence forever?
Violence forever and...
Who, me?
Who, me?
