"Time Bomb" is a song by punk band Rancid. The song comes from their third album ...And Out Come the Wolves and was their highest charting single, peaking at number 8 on US Modern Rock chart.

"Time Bomb" is a ska-punk song, similar to the sound of Operation Ivy in which Tim Armstrong and Matt Freeman used to play before Rancid. It borrows a portion of the lyrics from an earlier song, "Motorcycle Ride", which appeared on the group's Let's Go album.

Time Bomb features an organ solo from Vic Ruggiero of The Slackers.

Time Bomb was featured in the 2000 Gilmore Girls episode "Cinnamon's Wake".

Time Bomb was also used in the 2005 movie Fun With Dick and Jane.
