Yes, it's from Television's See No Evil, and the first name of the wonderful Mr Verlaine is Tom, by the way. I reckon he should have used the lines that follow (I understand all/destructive urges/ it seems so perfect).

Nicky's been using some quotes from the songs that were played before the band came to the stage.
