lyrics

well the boys are out-and ready to go
if it comes to it-they'll do what they know
the streets are tough-full of street toughs
makes ya wonder if your-tough enough
you could end up in jail-or maybe dead but nothing really matters-when you're safe in you're head

STREETS OF VIOLENCE-STREETS OF VIOLENCE
DON'T WANT IT AND IT SHOULDN'T BE
STREETS OF VIOLENCE-STREETS OF VIOLENCE
BLAMING PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND ME
STREETS OF VIOLENCE-STREETS OF VIOLENCE
THERE'S BLOOD ON MY HANDS

fueled by beer-and past glories
every night- the same old story
a 7 to 5 life-no change in sight
till its over-this is your life
keep yourself up
or stay way down
nothing really maters
when you're lying on the ground

STREETS OF VIOLENCE-STREETS OF VIOLENCE
DON'T WANT IT AND IT SHOULDN'T BE
STREETS OF VIOLENCE-STREETS OF VIOLENCE
BLAMING PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND ME
STREETS OF VIOLENCE-STREETS OF VIOLENCE
STREETS OF HATE

fistacuffs or weapons
it could go either way
nothings outta bounds
everythings in play
some go looking
some never do
sometimes it not up to me -or to you

YA TAKE IT OUT ON YOURSELF-YA TAKE IT OUT ON THE WORLD
YA TAKE IT OUT ON YOURSELF-YA TAKE IT OUT ON THE WORLD

Tall Cans & Shortcomings
by South Class Veterans

supported by 4 fans who also own “Streets of Violence”

I already had the 7" from this great band. Great old school sounding hardcore/ Oi! that can't be pigeonholed into one genre or the other. They remind me of some of my favorite East Coast bands ,but definitely unique sounding with great sing along lyrics. They quit making em like this so it's nice to have these guys putting out music in an age where SHIT rules the musical landscape. East Bay Working Class

Demo
by Boot Rally

supported by 4 fans who also own “Streets of Violence”

I'm not sure what they put in the water in the state of PA.,but whatever it is produces tough as nails Oi. Boot Rally has that great gruff American Oi sound that I love. Its a soundtrack for a 40 hour week-- or for breaking a bottle over some mouthy prick's head. East Bay Working Class
