Wiki:

Third Single off the Forth Album, Billy Gibbons (ZZ TOP) features with lead Guitar and backup Vocals, Also seen in the Video Clip. This bit Stolen from WIKI "The song involves an exchange of vocal lines between the falsetto of Homme and the twin baritones of Gibbons and Mark Lanegan. Gibbons does not regularly tour with the band, so the other vocal was performed by Lanegan, until he stopped touring with the band. Currently, Josh Homme sings alone with backing vocals from the rest of the band, who lack either of the studio musicians' deep growls. In the previous line-up, Homme played bass and Alain Johannes played a quite different version of Gibbons' solo. This song was also featured in and on the soundtrack of 'Saw II."

[Intro] Burn the witch Burn the witch Burn the witch Burn the witch [Verse 1] Holding hands Skipping like a stone On our way To see what we have done The first to speak Is the first to lie The children cross Their hearts & hope to die [Chorus 1] Bite your tongue Swear to keep your mouth shut [Verse 2] Ask yourself Will I burn in Hell? Then write it down And cast it in the well There they are The mob it cries for blood To twist the tale Into fire wood Fan the flames With a little lie Then turn your cheek Until the fire dies The skin it peels Like the truth, away What it was I will never say [Chorus 2] Bite your tongue Swear to keep your mouth shut Make up something Make up something good [Outro] Holding hands Skipping like a stone Burn the witch Burn to ash & bone Burn the witch Burn to ash & bone Burn the witch Burn to ash & bone
