as a punk from the seventies, this was a real treasure to find when it first came out! i was feeding my baby in the middle of the night while i was watching MuchMusic back in the nineties, and this little treasure came on. my kids heard this on my burb mobile's cassette deck for a few years ;) Rancid forever , baby!
I was 21 when this song came out. I’m 50 now. I did not spend enough of the last 30 years listening to Rancid. I seriously implore everyone in the comment section to spend some time listening to the entire catalog of music.
Dude i love seeing how they just created a whole feeling that we know nostalgically as the 90s. They made it man. Things we "capture" today from back then were brand new to these boys. Its a trip to think they just lived that way cause it was them. Not some copy you see on tiktok today trying to keep it all going.
I’m 68 and I listened to this song sung numerous times in español by a band called Xalbalba on the Isla de Cozumel. I never knew that Rancid recorded it until a couple years later. This song rocks like no other!!
I bought Out Come the Wolves based on seeing this song on tv (film clip) in the mid 90s. Im not really that much into punk, but its one of the best albums Ive ever bought.
I've always liked Tim. In live shows it looks like he doesn't even know what's going on, like he was on acid, then suddenly does an awesome, kick-ass solo...
An old wrong friend of mine and I listened to this drinking many years ago. It was on a 45. We spent a lot time trying to figure out what Tim was going on about. I always thought it was about trying to keep away from selling out or becoming corporate...Someone have a better interpretation...?
That was awesome singing this song with them in Seattle at the T-Mobile Park this past Monday! Everybody showed up to play that night man I was very impressed!
I have 9yr of twin sons now. I grew yup with 5 older brothers and was well versed in what it means to be a real man.... I play this song for my sons so that they know that they can realize what brotherhood is. They need to learn early.
@@daveweber9737 it was good that they weren’t cause when I went all the sites and official pages said the show was starting at a different time and they decided to start early and not notify anyone so many showed up late for the opening
Ditched school once back in the day and went to my friends house who played in a garage band, I was just getting into the scene and didn’t know who Tim was I just learned about rancid but didn’t know he was the lead singer, anyways i go into his garage to start warming up my vocals and my friend introduced me to this guy Tim Armstrong who was eating a bowl of Froot Loops I had no idea who he was and thought it was odd my friend introduced him by his full name
FireIsTheCIeanser then we played for him and he was impressed he took us on tour with him lol no jking he left shortly after he finished eating his cereal 🤷🏻♂️ but I used to see him around our little town of Newark quite often big ass lime green Mohawk
If you wanna make the move Then you better come in It's just the ability to reason That wears so thin Living and dying and the stories that are true Secrets to a good life is knowing when you're through [Chorus] Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac Yeah, the boy's a time bomb [x2] Well, he's back in the hole where they got him living Like a rat but he's smarter than that nine lives Like a cat 15 years old take him to the youth authority home First thing you learn is that you got to make it In this world alone [Chorus] Now he's gotten out he's gotten free he's gotta go gotta car 21 years old he's runnin' numbers from the bar His pager's beepin' he's got in deep in Whatever he can move on in you know that kid's a creepin' [Chorus] The boy’s a time bomb Tears come from the razor that's been tattooed below His eye his mother cries she knows that he is strong enough To die he's rollin' in the Cadillac it's midnight sunroof is down Three shots rung out, the hero's dead, the new king is crowned. [Chorus x2] Ohh, time bomb
Now he’s gotten out he’s gotten free he’s gotta go gotta car He’s 21 years old he’s runnin numbers from the bar His pager’s beepin’ He’s got in deep in This song oozes 90’s. 😂 great tune.
Rancid is way too good to call a Clash tribute band, but their singer/songwriter idolizes Joe Strummer and it comes through in a lot of their music. Their musical arc is similar too: they made their name with some high-quality punk albums in quick succession, and then the music took all kinds of weird turns and incorporated all different genres together. He even mentions Strummer by name in the opening song on the first album they released after Strummer's death: "I'm dancing now to a whole different drummer, but I'll keep listening to the great Joe Strummer, 'cause through music, you can live forever."
Reupload due to rights or copywriters issues. I was watching these on RUclips back when they had star ratings. They didn't commute the likes and ratings here. These uploads also gain the artists some money through monetization hopefully :/

Almost 30 years since its release, "Timebomb" still sounds fresh and cool.
Sounds like old ska punk.
sounds cool
It sounded old then, stolen from The Clash.
Because 99% of modern music is trash by comparison
Seeing them at sofi in acouple weeks.

One of THE best Ska punk tracks ever to hit my ears. I NEVER tire of this song.
Isn't Ska Punk.
This a 2-tone
This takes me back! Loved going to punk/ska shows throughout the 90's, now as a dad I am educating my kids.
Me Too
Teach them well!!
Gotta have values.
Bring your kids to a Rancid show
80’s punk here
The Bassline from the Man Matt is so SICK and they never film him crushing it.
I'm 56 and I'm still a huge fan of Rancid and other ska bands
i'm 46 still huge fan too
God bless ska music!
I’m 68 and I listened to this song sung numerous times in español by a band called Xalbalba on the Isla de Cozumel. I never knew that Rancid recorded it until a couple years later. This song rocks like no other!!
I'm going to listen to that now ty
What’s the song called please
Time Bomb sung by Rancid
Time Bomb dude 😮@@nextdoorkicksyt5667
Rancid's Time Bomb(1995) is timeless.
Absolutely one of the best songs ever recorded! Rancid rules!
Facts
Ok
@Milo Hoeflin Wrong. Songwriter(s) Tim Armstrong / Lars Frederiksen / Matt Freeman
@Milo Hoeflin Rancid was a band before most the Interrupters born, dude. They covered the song on Hooligans United: A Tribute to Rancid
I bought Out Come the Wolves based on seeing this song on tv (film clip) in the mid 90s. Im not really that much into punk, but its one of the best albums Ive ever bought.

Oh if you're on acid, you ALWAYS know what's going on...
@@tylerdurden4392 exactly. You know stuff that’s going on that other people don’t know is going on.
My uncle has met him multiple times and says Tim is a really chill, kind dude.
20年以上前来日した時新宿リキッドルーム見に行ったな···懐かしい
This song is a inter generational piece of awesomeness
never gets old.
This never gets old!!!!
Who's how come it's taken me to get to 52 without hearing this lot itntakes me back to my teens in the uk when ska was all the rage!
56!
It's 2024 and this song still rocks man
Inget lagu ini kembali ke tahun 96 saat gw nongki di plaza depok(plaztock). Oi.oi.oi punk not death
Each time i play this song..i remembered my late brothers that always sang this song with his radio cassette player.
such a good album. great songwriters

Never gets old! Precious memories
my friend Ray introduced me to this song about 1992 and i never stop listening to it
That was awesome singing this song with them in Seattle at the T-Mobile Park this past Monday! Everybody showed up to play that night man I was very impressed!
Tim Armstrong can do Punk and Ska effortlessly because he was the frontman of Operation Ivy and now Rancid!
No he was not.
@@bedevil1 yes, he actually fucking was...you obviously not from our Punk era
@@laceyholt6985 He was not the front man for Op Ivy.
@@bedevil1 Yeah, it was Jesse...but we were there for Tim & he was in Operation Ivy
@@laceyholt6985 Yes I know. And I do not need any smooth brain Twat Rocker telling me otherwise.
This song popped into my head this morning as I put on a black coat and black shoes. So glad it did! If only I had a black hat…
I have 9yr of twin sons now. I grew yup with 5 older brothers and was well versed in what it means to be a real man.... I play this song for my sons so that they know that they can realize what brotherhood is. They need to learn early.
Seeing them tour with greenday tonight in Cincinnati, so glad!
Green Day should be the opener on this tour. Yeah. I said it!
@@daveweber9737 it was good that they weren’t cause when I went all the sites and official pages said the show was starting at a different time and they decided to start early and not notify anyone so many showed up late for the opening
Green day sucks low key
@@VotableBow6949their older music will always be better
@@mr.funtimefishy agreed. the stuff after like, the first album, gets sort of unbearable. I just don't really like whiny rock
Sooooooo catchy. Love this Ska/Punk classic
God bless rancid
BAM! THE NEW KING IS CROWNED.
Wow i was playing this music when i was in senior high school and now am 44 still love it yo
Favorite song by them.
FRESH AF!! After all these years!
end of November 2024. Still loving it. Thank you
I saw them in concert when I was 18 yrs old, in a small crowded venue in Seattle. I'm 45 now. 😂
that sounds like a dream. im seeing them Aug 28 at Truist Park stadium. i wouldve loved to see them up close!
Ditched school once back in the day and went to my friends house who played in a garage band, I was just getting into the scene and didn’t know who Tim was I just learned about rancid but didn’t know he was the lead singer, anyways i go into his garage to start warming up my vocals and my friend introduced me to this guy Tim Armstrong who was eating a bowl of Froot Loops I had no idea who he was and thought it was odd my friend introduced him by his full name

I might be here in 2075 cause I'll be 100 years old and still rocking rancid
Um actually, according to my calculations, it is approximately December 20th, *2023*, at 12:24 PM 🤓☝️
I just found out this exists! It's such a good song!
This song makes me feel nostaligic for a time i didnt grow up in even though i did
Word
First rancid song i ever heard
Yoyo Cabrera mine was brad logan
Same here, never looked back either haha
Mine Ruby Soho, on TV...
The fourth for me...
After Maxwell , 11hour and Roots 😁😁
Mee too!!!
I sing this at Karaoke. So Fun! One of my favorite bands back in the days!
If you wanna make the move
Then you better come in
It's just the ability to reason
That wears so thin
Living and dying and the stories that are true
Secrets to a good life is knowing when you're through
[Chorus]
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb
[x2]
Well, he's back in the hole where they got him living
Like a rat but he's smarter than that nine lives
Like a cat 15 years old take him to the youth authority home
First thing you learn is that you got to make it
In this world alone
[Chorus]
Now he's gotten out he's gotten free he's gotta go gotta car
21 years old he's runnin' numbers from the bar
His pager's beepin' he's got in deep in
Whatever he can move on in you know that kid's a creepin'
[Chorus]
The boy’s a time bomb
Tears come from the razor that's been tattooed below
His eye his mother cries she knows that he is strong enough
To die he's rollin' in the Cadillac it's midnight sunroof is down
Three shots rung out, the hero's dead, the new king is crowned.
[Chorus x2]
Ohh, time bomb
yusof mohamed salleh thank you very much 😊
This song was my introduction to Rancid - how many years (decades) have I not known all the lyrics until now! Still loved it all along

Hello from Coventry 🏴
lost treasure. I had to look it up by the lyrics in 2022, rancid. awesome music
俺たちエアジャム世代‼️ありがとう‼️
Goooo Rancid! greetings from San Juan, Argentina--------------.
Run Toby Run!
good shit
This song rips.
Ohhhhh Dime Bar!
reminds me a lot of the clash!!
Yep, and both had that two guitar + bass front line as well. Unless you’ve got exceptional musicians, a trio just never cuts it in my book.
Rancid is way too good to call a Clash tribute band, but their singer/songwriter idolizes Joe Strummer and it comes through in a lot of their music. Their musical arc is similar too: they made their name with some high-quality punk albums in quick succession, and then the music took all kinds of weird turns and incorporated all different genres together.

Look up the video cover by rancid cheat, Joe drummer tell him he’s passing down the baton to Tim
Flux the spirit to love babyyyyy
The best band ever RANCID 0! O! 0!
One of my favourite song when i was senior high school 😀😀😀
Nostalgia
Why doesn’t this have more views!?
Reupload due to rights or copywriters issues. I was watching these on RUclips back when they had star ratings. They didn't commute the likes and ratings here. These uploads also gain the artists some money through monetization hopefully :/
yo i have not listened to this in like 15 years holy shit
I swear a few years ago this had millions of views, unless that was another upload that got removed. This is one of their most popular songs.
Maybe a different song...
This is epic!!
Love, light & peace to you ALL
Punk forever!!!!!

Great song since i'd high school 1993,,, 👍🏼😎
