Tim Skipper - Independence Day for a Petty Thief lyrics

Sinner, you better get ready Oh, you better get ready, hallelujah! Sinner, you better get ready Time is comin' when the sinner must die The summer that I turned 16 I had my Independence Day s**ed down to the rich neighborhood, near the fireworks display Green lawns, washed in black, all reflecting exploding light Crept up to a house, big and white, with the back door open wide There's no owner Among suburban paupers Independence Day For a petty thief Independence Day For a scoundrel We all know they stared like zombies at the red and blue and grey Every soul was in the bleachers, about four blocks away From aside, they shouted like thunder clouds, for a town bein' laid to waste My heart was beatin' on "boom boom boom boom!" As we filled up our pillow case Free- Dom Independence Day For a petty thief Independence Day For a scoundrel Sinner, you better get ready Oh, you better get ready, hallelujah! Sinner, you better get ready Time is comin' when the sinner must die Independence Day For a petty thief Independence Day For a scoundrel (Yeah!) (Yeah!) The summer that I turned 16 I had my Independence Day (Yeah!)
