Time Bomb lyrics
by Rancid



INTRO:VERSE:If you wanna make a move then you better come inIt's just the ability to reason that wears so thinLiving and dying and the stories that are trueSecret to a good life's knowing when you're throughCHORUS:Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac, yeah, the boy's a time bombBlack coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac, yeah, the boy's a time bombVERSE:Well, he's back in the hole where they got him living like a ratBut he's smarter than that, nine lives like a catThirteen years old? they take him to the youth authority homeFirst thing you learn: you got to make it in this world alone[CHORUS] (Black coat, white shoes...)VERSE:Now he's gotten out, he's gotten free, he's gotta go, got a carHe's 21 years old, he's runnin' numbers from the barHis pager's beepin', he's gettin' deep inWhatever he can move on in, you know that kid's a creepin' in[CHORUS] (Black coat, white shoes...) ...The boy's a time bombSOLO:VERSE:Tears come from the razor that's been tattooed below his eyeHis mother cries, she knows that he is strong enough to dieHe's rollin' in the Cadillac, it's midnight, sunroof is downThree shots ring out, the hero's dead, the new king is crowned[CHORUS] (x2) (Black coat, white shoes...) ...Ooh...time bomb
