Lyrics
The actual practice of witchcraft in 17th century New England
Superstition, fear and jealousy drove the puritans to accuse their friends and relatives of consorting with the devil
Parading around huge bonfires, repeating vindictive chants, they consigned the poor creatures to the flames
The tortured souls cried out in agony as the flames mounted higher and higher
Burn, Witch! Burn, Witch!
Burn! Burn! Burn!
In the woods outside Salem
There's a house on its own
They say its women tell fortunes
And to leave it alone
Panic spreads like a sickness
Soon the town's in an uproar
There's no reasoning with madness
They're just hoping to settle the score
She's a Witch, she's a Witch
Cannot let her free
Hang her from a tree
She's a Witch (She's a Witch!)
She's a Witch (A fuckin' Witch!)
Don't let her escape
Burn her at the stake
Let's jump to the courtroom, it's 1692
The magistrate has decided what we should do
She made a deal with the devil
It's time that he claims her soul
We'll rid this evil with fire and hope that it swallows her whole
She's a Witch, she's a Witch
Cannot let her free
Hang her from a tree
She's a Witch (She's a Witch!)
She's a Witch (A fuckin' Witch!)
Don't let her escape
Burn her at the stake
Curse it! Curse it for all eternity!
She's a Witch
Burn, Witch! Burn!
Burn, Witch! Burn!
She's a Witch, she's a Witch
Cannot let her free
Hang her from a tree
She's a Witch (She's a Witch!)
She's a Witch (A fuckin' Witch!)
Don't let her escape
Burn her at the stake
