Rancid - Time Bomb Lyrics

If you wanna make a move then you better come in
It's just the ability to reason that wears so thin
Living and dying and the stories that are true
Secrets to a good life's knowing 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 living
Like a rat but he's smarter than that nine lives
Like a cat 15 years old take him to the youth authority
Home, first thing you learn is that you got to 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's gotten free, he's gotta go, gotta car
He's 21 years old, he's runnin' numbers from the bar
His pager's beepin', he's got in 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

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

Ohh, time bomb!
