INTRO:

VERSE:

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
Secret to a good life's knowing when you're through

CHORUS:

Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac, yeah, the boy's a time bom
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac, yeah, the boy's a time bom

VERSE:
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
?Ten years old? they take him to the youth authority home
First thing you learn: you got to make it in this world alone

[CHORUS] (Black coat, white shoes)

VERSE:

Now he's gotten out, he's gotten free, he's gotta go, got a car
He's 21 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' in

[CHORUS] (Black coat, white shoes)

The boy's a time bom

SOLO:

VERSE:

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 ring out, the hero's dead, the new king is crowned

[CHORUS] (x2) (Black coat, white shoes)

Oohtime bomb
