Mama says what's done is done
Keep your head and hold your tongue
There's plenty of vipers in the vat
And many a way to skin a rat
There's time to burn
Daddy cried revenge is sweet
Hang 'em high, don't be discreet
Voices howlin' in the wind
Forgive me father for I have sinned
There's time to burn
I'll meet you at the point of no return
Time to burn
(We'll find out)
I can't tell what's better or worse
The cure or the curse
But we all learn
There's time to burn
Colour your world in black and white
Remember to say a prayer tonight
When you step into that empty space
Gonna wipe that smile off your face
There's time to burn
How many ways can you hit the floor
Only a fool comes back for more
Stay down and save you breath You'll need it for the kiss of d**h
There's time to burn
Meet me at the point of no return
Time to burn
