Duran Duran | Lyrics | Violence of Summer (Love's Taking Over)

Hey, pick it up
This'll get you out
You're head

China's heading up
By the ratings on a motion
She goes with a real head biker
He's a metalhead

She looks me up and down
Talkin' dirty eyes
Sweet sayin' boy
Baby, I can lick you any time

Keep it up
That's right
Here we go again

Bit later I'm gonna run them
Two around the back
While all them guys break heads
In the sugar shack

Don't give me drink
I don't wanna get too stoned
Then we're gonna see
Who's gonna take who home

The violence of summer
And love's taking over
It starts with desire
Ends up under cover

Those lips don't make me right
You may look down but don't think twice
So, death is on the way
So, what, man? I still want to play

One, two
This'll get you up
Your money
This'll get you up
Let's go

We'll take a ride
Going South where her mother writes
Before bad news catches up
We still got a little time

We made it all so far away
One thing is sure, we shouldn't stay
I'll take it all
China gonna get the run around, a run, a run around

The violence of summer
And love's taking over
It starts with desire
Ends up under cover

China, na, China, na, na, na
China, na, China, na, na, na
China, na, China, na, na, na
China, na, China, na

The violence of summer
And love's taking over
It starts with desire
Ends up under cover

Love's taking over
Yes, love's taking over
Love's taking over
