Rancid - Time Bomb lyrics
[Rancid - Time Bomb lyrics]
Then you better come in
It's just the ability to reason
That wears so thin livin' and dyin' and the
Stories that are true
Secrets to a good life's
Knowin' when you're through
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Well, he's back in the hole where they
Got him livin' like a rat
But he's smarter than that
Nine lives like a cat fifteen years old
Take him to the youth authority home
First thing you learn
You gotta make it in this world alone
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Now he's gotten out, he gotten
Free, he got a coat, got a car
He's twenty-one years old
He's runnin' numbers from the bar
His pager's beepin', he's gettin' deep in
Whatever he can move on in
You know that kid's a creepin'
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
The boy's a time bomb
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Yeah
Tears come from the razor that's
Been tattooed below his eye
His mother cries
She knows that he is strong enough to die
He's rollin' in the Cadillac, it's midnight
Sunroof is down
Three shots rung out the hero's dead
The new king is crowned
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
Oh, time bomb
