Burn the Witch by Queens of the Stone Age Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2005

[Intro]
Burn the witch
Burn the witch
Burn the witch
Burn the witch

[Verse 1]
Holding hands
Skipping like a stone
On our way
To see what we have done

The first to speak
Is the first to lie
The children cross
Their hearts and hope to die

[Chorus 1]
Bite your tongue
Swear to keep your mouth shut
[Verse 2]
Ask yourself
Will I burn in Hell?
Then write it down
And cast it in the well

There they are
The mob, it cries for blood
To twist the tale
Into firewood

Fan the flames
With a little lie
Then turn your cheek
Until the fire dies

The skin, it peels
Like the truth, away
What it was
I will never say

[Chorus 2]
Bite your tongue
Swear to keep, keep your mouth shut
Make up something
Make up something good
[Outro]
Holding hands
Skipping like a stone
Burn the witch
Burn to ash and bone
Burn the witch
Burn to ash and bone
Burn the witch
Burn to ash and bone
