On the tv news, in paper every day
Seems there's another war it's in another place
The poorer that you get the shorter
That the fuse becomes
You gotta fight to live
Lower forms of life are wooing in the streets
Can you believe they're talking about you and me?
All the jobs are gone see the grown man weep
You gotta fight to live
Sick but true, but everything they do
Is just telling you they don't care
Sick but true, but everything they do
Is just telling you they got theirs
There is violence in the air
Violence in the air
Violence!
In suffering and violence we must wash ourselves
Ram raid supermarkets empty all the shelves
Dancing on the corpse of a brave new world
We gotta fight to live
Sick but true, but everything they do
Is just telling you they don't care
Sick but true, but everything they do
Is just telling you they got theirs
There is violence in the air
Violence in the air
Violence!
The fascists fuel the nazis christian
Skinheads kick to kill
In the church of christ they say it's all God's will
We brought in our selves because we are evil
The wages of our sin is death
They choke us all with paranoia to making us forget
Liberty's sweet breath
They don't know any more than you and me
Because you see they're evil
Sick but true, but everything they do
Is just telling you they don't care
Sick but true, but everything they do
Is just telling you they got theirs
There is violence in the air
Violence in the air
Violence!
