The streets of Salem aren't safe unless you're under oath

Witch-hunters are everywhere, to slice the witches' throats

Practising your evil spells alone out in the woods

Oh, don't you know they'll find you out, witch-hunters always do

Little lady, come with me, you know that it's your turn

Witch-hunter won't be denied, make love to me or burn

Standing here before me as the tears swell in your eyes

Writhe and scream in agony, for no one hears your cries

CHORUS:

Innocent victim will burn in hellfire tonight

As you twist and you turn, it just ain't worth the fight

for your life, though your pain seems so endless

The witch-hunter's wrath is fast, sure and relentless, now burn!

Up upon the witness stand your neighbor's fingers find you

No one here can help you now, they come with chains to bind you

You've seen this scene a hundred times with someone in your place

Stones fly through vindictive air as blood runs down your face

CHORUS:

Innocent victim will burn in hellfire tonight

As you twist and you turn, it just ain't worth the fight

for your life, though your pain seems so endless

The witch-hunter's wrath is fast, sure and relentless, now burn!

Lashed tightly to the burning post, you hang your head and wait

Witch-hunter stands before you now, defiance in his gaze

With torch in hand, he shakes his head, a gleam is in his eye

You curse him as the flames reach up, and scream your last goodbye

CHORUS:

Innocent victim will burn in hellfire tonight

As you twist and you turn, it just ain't worth the fight

for your life, though your pain seems so endless

The witch-hunter's wrath is fast, sure and relentless, now burn!
