Violence is golden


Chorus:
Violence, (oh no!) is golden. aa-aa-aa-aa-ah!
Violence, (oh no!) is golden. aa-aa-aa-aa-ah!

Pass another plate of shrapnel, sprinkle it with tnt;
Gotta have another grenade salad, split it with your enemy.
Gotta sell another uzi, maybe couple 44 mags,
Got a wife and a kid to support, and a payment on the jag.
Wont you try this personal bazooka, make you feel like a man,
Show the little girls whats what by the size of the thunder in your hands.
Take a pocketful of teflon bullets, maybe nother tommy gun,
Gotta keep stuff movin out the door, got a business to run.
Take it from me, son - you can have a lot of fun!

Chorus
Chorus

Pass another fleet of b-1 bombers, grab an m-16,
Buildin chevies was never the fun of buildin up the war machine.
Got a rocket in my pocket and its ready, do you think we can deal?
Got a year-end sale goin on, you can see the appeal;
cause Im sellin both sides of the fence, that be the name of the game,
I dont care about your silly little struggle, moneys colored all the same.
Take a handful of star wars missiles, maybe super laser gun,
Gotta keep stuff movin out the door, got a business to run.
Take it from me, son - we can have a lot of fun!

Biografia

John Cameron Fogerty (born January 28, 1945) is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist, and record producer, best known as the frontman and primary songwriter for the rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival. Born in Berkeley, California, Fogerty began playing guitar at age ten, influenced by the rock and roll of the 1950s and American folk music. In 1967, he formed Creedence Clearwater Revival with his brother Tom (drums), Stu Cook (bass), and Doug Clifford (percussion). The band achieved international success in the 1970s with a sound characterized by bluesy riffs, evocative lyrics about rural American life, and a strong folk-rock influence. Among their most famous hits are "Proud Mary", "Bad Moon Rising", "Fortunate Son", and "Green River", songs that helped define the aesthetics of American rock in the 1970s. After the dissolution of Creedence Clearwater Revival in 1972, Fogerty embarked on a successful solo career, releasing albums such as "Centerfield" (1985) and "Blue Moon Swamp" (1997). In 2019, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
