about

Words and music by The Chef, written on Capitol Hill in Denver sometime in 1996-97 after watching True Romance on VHS.

lyrics

Love and violence
I'd kill anyone for you
anything that moves
boom boom boom

Love and violence
you and me under the moon
Cadillac to Cancun
baby, you're so cool

Baby's got a gun
and Seventies shades
She's seen every kung fu movie ever made
we'll make a list of everyone we hate and
we'll blow out their brains

Love and violence
all this mayhem turns me on
this could be the theme song
for a guy and a girl with a gun

Love and violence
we can go where we wanna go
we can do what we wanna do
but we gotta shoot our way through

Baby's got a gun
and Seventies shades
she's seen every Tarantino movie ever made
we'll make a list of everyone we hate and
we'll blow out their brains

[excerpt from "Love & Violence: The Movie"]

Love and violence
we'll cross the border soon
bury bodies under the moon
baby, you're so cool

Baby's got a gun
and she don't hesitate
she'll pin you to the wall and
empty out her .38

True Romance is a BOOM!
and a smoking gun
'cause we are in love

Love and violence
Love and violence

Baby, you're so cool
Boom boom boom
You're so cool
Boom boom boom
You're so cool
