Burning Times
You'd burn any woman
Be she young or be she old
Be she soft spoken or bold
…
If she rolled out in the grass
If she had stains on her ass
Is from church she took a pass
…
You'd call her a witch
A hag a bitch
Loyalty to her you'd ditch
…
Be she understanding and wise
You led the people under a deceptive guise
The woman you despise
…
You'd rather let them die
You'd rather mother cry
Than use lifesaving medicines of old. Mothers left to wonder why
…
You cry, "Burn the witch"
"She's a hag. She's a bitch"
…
You'd rather let your people die
You'd rather watch your mothers cry
…
Disgrace on you, men of old
For being so heartless so unfeeling and cold
…
Watch out for the power of the woman strong
For she will prove you all ruthless and wrong
Watch out for the power of the witch
When she is threatened the goddess can be a bitch
