OPENING SCENE The Setting: A village square in New England, 1641. An execution is in progress.
Town Crier: Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Hear Ye! This woman has been convicted of the crimes of witchcraft, and of making a covenant with the Devil. She has been sentenced to be burned at the stake. And may the Lord God have mercy on her soul.
The Accused: Mercy! Mercy! (blood curdling scream)
Shackled before the elders, rise and stand accused Formal charges state of evil chants you have abused Contorting minds, performing witchcraft on the youth With instruments of torture, we have ways towards the truth
Burn, Witch, Burn Smoulder into the dawn Burn, Witch, Burn Roast the Devil's pawn
Escorted out to face the Chamber of Woe Deaf to cries of mercy, mangling bodies slow Wait for your confession after severing each toe All who undergo confess, whether or not it's so
Burn, Witch, Burn Smoulder into the dawn Burn, Witch, Burn Roast the Devil's pawn
Confession made. A guilty grade. Court's now adjourned Making haste, fags are placed. Entrails begin to churn Dragged through the mud before you're fastened to the stake One more of the guiltless. Just another bad mistake
Burn, Witch, Burn Smoulder into the dawn Burn, Witch, Burn Roast the Devil's pawn
