BLACK SABBATH Black Sabbath (6:18) What is this that stands before me? Figure in black which points at me Turn around quick, and start to run Find out I'm the chosen one Oh nooo! Big black shape with eyes of fire Telling people their desire Satan's sitting there, he's smiling Watches those flames get higher and higher Oh no, no, please God help me! Is it the end, my friend? Satan's coming 'round the bend people running 'cause they're scared The people better go and beware! No, no, please, no! The Wizard (4:21) Misty morning, clouds in the sky Without warning, the wizard walks by Casting his shadow, weaving his spell Funny clothes, tinkling bell Never talking Just keeps walking spreading his magic Evil power disappears Demons worry when the wizard is near He turns tears into joy Everyone's happy when the wizard walks by Never talking Just keeps walking spreading his magic Sun is shining, clouds have gone by All the people give a happy sigh He has passed by, giving his sign Left all the people feeling so fine Never talking Just keeps walking spreading his magic Behnd the Wall of Sleep/Wasp (3:37) The intro to this song has a seperate title, it's called Wasp Precious cups within the flower deadly petals with strange power faces shine a deadly smile back up on you at your trial Chill and numbs from head to toe icy sun with frosty glow Why'd you go reaching your sorrow? why'd you go read no tomorrow Feel your spirit rise with the priest feel your body falling to its knees Take your walk of remorse take your body to a corpse take your body to a corpse take your body to a corpse if you want all remorse take your body to a corpse Now from darkness, there springs light Wall of Sleep is cold and bright Wall of Sleep is lying broken Sun shines in, you are awoken N.I.B.

Now I have you with me, under my power Our love grows stronger now with every hour Look into my eyes, you will see who I am my name is Lucifer, please take my hand Evil Woman I've seen a look of evil in your eyes You've been filling me all full of lies Sorrow will not change your shameful deeds Do well best, someone else has better seen Evil woman, don't you play your games with me Evil woman, don't you play your games with me Now I know just what you're looking for You want me to claim that child you bore Well you know that it must he not be And you know the way it got to be Evil woman, don't you play your games with me Evil woman, don't you play your games with Evil woman, don't you play your games with me Evil woman, don't you play your games with me Wickedness lies in your moisten lips Your body moves just like the crack of a whip Blackness sleeps on top of your stray bed Do you whish that you could see me dead Evil woman, don't you play your games with me Evil woman, don't you play your games with me Evil woman, don't you play your games with me Evil woman, don't you play your games with me Wicked World The world today is such a wicked thing Fighting going on between the human race People give good wishes to all their friends While people just across the sea are counting the dead A politician's job they say is very high For he has to choose who's got to go and die They can put a man on the moon quite easy while people here on earth are dying of old diseases A woman goes to work every day after day She just goes to work just to earn her pay Child sitting crying by a life that's harder he doesn't even know who is his father Sleeping Village/A Bit of Finger (10:43) - (This time is a subject of dispute) The intro to this song has a seperate title, it's A Bit of Finger Red sun rising in the sky Sleeping village, cockerels cry Soft breeze blowing in the trees peace of mind, feel at ease Warning (3:31) - (This time is a subject of dispute) Now the first day that I met ya I was looking in the sky When the sun turned all a blur and the thunderclouds rolled by The sea began to shiver and the wind began to moan It must've been a sign for me to leave you well alone I was born without you, baby but my feelings were a little bit too strong you never said you love me and I don't believe you can 'cause I saw you in a dream and you were with another man You looked so cool and casual and I tried to look the same But now I've got to know ya tell me who am I to blame? I was born without you, baby but my feelings were a little bit too strong Now the whole wide world is movin' 'cause there's iron in my heart I just can't keep from cryin' 'cause you say we've got to part Sorrow grips my voice as I stand here all alone And watch you slowly take away a love I've never known I was born without you, baby but my feelings were a little bit too strong PARANOID Luke's Wall/War Pigs (7:55) Generals gathered in their masses just like witches at black masses evil minds that plot destruction sorcerers of death's construction in the fields the bodies burning as the war machine keeps turning death and hatred to mankind poisoning their brainwashed minds... Oh lord yeah! Politicians hide themselves away they only started the war Why should they go out to fight? They leave that role to the poor Time will tell on their power minds Making war just for fun Treating people just like pawns in chess Wait 'till their judgement day comes, yeah! Now in darkness, world stops turning as the war machine keeps burning No more war pigs of the power Hand of god has sturck the hour Day of judgement, god is calling on their knees, the war pigs crawling Begging mercy for their sins Satan, laughing, spreads his wings ALL RIGHT NOW! Paranoid (2:47) Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind people think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify Can you help me occupy my brain? Oh yeah I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry Happiness I cannot feel and love to me us so unreal And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could but it's too late Planet Caravan (4:24) We sail through endless skies stars shine like eyes the black night sighs The moon in silver trees falls down in tears light of the night The earth, a purple blaze of sapphire haze in orbit always While down below the trees bathed in cool breeze silver starlight breaks down the night And so we pass on by the crimson eye of great god Mars as we travel the universe Iron Man (5:53) Has he lost his mind? Can he see or is he blind? Can he walk at all, Or if he moves will he fall? Is he alive or dead? Has he thoughts within his head? We'll just pass him there why should we even care? He was turned to steel in the great magnetic field When he travelled time for the future of mankind Nobody wants him He just stares at the world Planning his vengeance that he will soon unfurl Now the time is here for Iron Man to spread fear Vengeance from the grave Kills the people he once saved Nobody wants him They just turn their heads Nobody helps him Now he has his revenge Heavy boots of lead fills his victims full of dread Running as fast as they can Iron Man lives again! Electric Funeral (4:47) Reflex in the sky warn you you're gonna die Storm coming, you'd better hide from the atomic tide Flashes in the sky turns houses into sties Turns people into clay, radiation minds decay Robot minds of robot slaves lead them to atomic rage plastic flowers, melting sun, fading moon falls upon dying world of radiation, victims of mad frustration Burning globe of oxy'n fire, like electric funeral pyre Buildings crashing down to a cracking ground Rivers turn to wood, ice melting to flood Earth lies in death bed, clouds cry water dead Tearing life away, here's the burning pay Electric Funeral Electric Funeral Electric Funeral Electric Funeral And so in the sky shines the electric eye supernatural king takes earth under his wing Heaven's golden chorus sings, Hell's angels flap their wings Evil souls fall to Hell, ever trapped in burning cells! Hand of Doom (7:07) What you gonna do? Time's caught up with you Now you wait your turn, you know there's no return Take your written rules, you join the other fools Turn to something new, now it's killing you First it was the bomb, Vietnam napalm Disillusioning, you push the needle in From life you escape, reality's that way Colours in your mind satisfy your time Oh you, you know you must be blind To do something like this To take the sleep that you don't know You're giving Death a kiss, Oh, little fool now Your mind is full of pleasure Your body's looking ill To you it's shallow leisure So drop the acid pill, don't stop to think now You're having a good time baby But that won't last Your mind's all full of things You're living too fast go out enjoy yourself Don't bottle it in You need someone to help you To stick the needle in, yeah Now you know the scene, your skin starts turning green Your eyes no longer seeing life's reality Push the needle in, face death's sickly grin Holes are in your skin, caused by deadly pin Head starts spinning 'round, you fall down to the ground Feel your body heave, Death's hands starts to weave It's too late to turn, you don't want to learn Price of life you cry, now you're gonna die! Rat Salad (2:29) No Lyrics Available Faries Wear Boots/Jack the Stripper (6:13) The outro to this song has it's own title, Jack the Stripper Goin' home, late last night suddenly I got a fright Yeah I looked throught the window and surprised what I saw Fairy boots were dancin' with a dwarf, all right now! Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me yeah I saw it, I saw it, I tell you no lies Yeah Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me I saw it, I saw it with my own two eyes, well all right now! So I went to the doctor, see what he could give me he said | ||||||||||||||||

SABOTAGE Hole in the Sky (4:00) I'm looking through a hole in the sky I'm seeing nowhere through the eyes of a lie I'm getting closer to the end of the line I'm living easy where the sun doesn't shine I'm living in a room without any view I'm living free because the rent's never due The synonyms of all the things that I've said Are just the riddles that are built in my head Hole in the sky, take me to heaven Window in time, through it I fly I've seen the stars disappear in the sun The shooting's easy if you've got the right gun And even though I'm sitting waiting for Mars I don't believe there's any future in cause Hole in the sky, take me to heaven Window in time, through it I fly Yeah I've watched the dogs of war enjoying their feast I've seen the western world go down in the east The food of love became the greed of our time But now I'm living on the profits of pride Don't Start (Too Late) (0:49) Instrumental Symptom of the Universe (6:28) Take me through the centuries to supersonic years Electrifying enemy is drowning in his tears All I have to give you is a love that never dies The symptom of the universe is written in your eyes Yeah Mother mooch is calling me back to her silver womb Father of creation takes me from my stolen tomb Seventh night the unicorn is waiting in the skies A symptom of the universe, a love that never dies Yeah Take my hand, my child of love come step inside my tears Swim the magic ocean I've been crying all these years When our love will ride away into eternal skies A symptom of the universe, a love that never dies Yeah Oh my child of love's creation, come and step inside my dreams In your eyes I see no sadness, you are all that loving means Take my hand and we'll go riding through the sunshine from above We'll find happiness together in the summer skies of love Meglomania (9:40) I hide myself inside the shadows of shame The silent symphonies were playing their game My body echoed to the dreams of my soul This god is something that I could not control Where can I run to now? The joke is on me No sympathizing god is insanity, yeah Why don't you just get out of my life, yeah? Why don't you just get out of my life now? Why doesn't everybody leave me alone now? Why doesn't everybody leave me alone, yeah? Obsessed with fantasy, possessed with my schemes I mixed reality with pseudogod dreams The ghost of violence was something I seen I sold my soul to be the human obscene How could it poison me? The dream of my soul How did my fantasies take complete control, yeah? Why don't you just get out of my life, yeah? Why don't you just get out of my life now? Why doesn't everybody leave me alone now? Why doesn't everybody leave me alone, yeah? Well I feel something's taken me I don't know where It's like a trip inside a separate mind The ghost of tomorrow from my favorite dream Is telling me to leave it all behind Feel it slipping away, slipping in tomorrow Got to get to happiness, want no more of sorrow How I lied, went to hide How I tried to get away from you now Am I right if I fight? That I might just get away from you now Sting me! Well I feel something's giving me the chance to return It's giving me the chance of saving my soul Beating the demigod, I'm fading away I'm going backwards but I'm in control Feel it slipping away, slipping in tomorrow Getting back to sanity, providence of sorrow Was it wise to disguise How I tried to get away from you now Is there a way that I could pay Or is it true I have to stay with you now? How I lied, went to hide How I tried to get away from you now Am I right if I fight? That I might just get away from you now Suck me! I'm really digging schizophrenia the best of the earth I've seized my soul in the fires of hell Peace of mind eluded me, but now it's all mine I simply try, but he wants me to fail Feel it slipping away, slipping in tomorrow Now I've found my happiness, providence of sorrow No more lies, I got wise I despise the way I worshipped you yeah Now I'm free, can't you see And now instead I won't be led by you now Free! The Thrill of it All (5:52) Inclination of direction, walk the turned and twisted rift With the children of creation futuristic dreams we sift Clutching violently we whisper with a liquefying cry Any deadly final answers that are surely doomed to die Won't you help me Mr. Jesus, won't you tell me if you can? When you see this world we live in, do you still believe in Man? If my songs become my freedom, and my freedom turns to gold Then I'll ask the final question, if the answer could be sold Well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it 'Cause I've got no reason to lie, yeah Forget your problems that don't even exist And I'll show you a way to get high, oh yeah Oh yeah! So come along, you know you matter to me Remember freedom is not hard to find, yeah Time to stop all your messing around Don't you think that I know my own mind, oh yeah Oh yeah! Why can't you believe, it's not here to perceive Do you always have to be told, yeah For you have been taught that if your mind has been bought Life's entire answer was sold, oh yeah Oh yeah! Supertzar (3:42) Instrumental. sort of. Am I Going Insane (Radio) (4:15) Everybody's looking at me, feeling paranoid inside When I step outside I feel free, think I'll find a place to hide Tell me people, am I going insane? Tell me people, am I going insane? Every day I sit and wonder how my life it used to be Now I feel like going under, now my life is hard to see So tell me people, am I going insane? Tell me people, am I going insane? So I'm telling all you people, listen while I sing again If I don't sound very cheerful, I think that I'm a schizo brain So tell me people, am I going insane? Tell me people, am I going insane? The Writ (8:09) The way I feel is the way I am I wish I'd walked before I started to run to you Just to you What kind of people do you think we are? Another joker who's a rock and roll star for you Just for you The faithful image of another man The endless ocean of emotion I swam for you Yeah for you The shot troopers laying down on the floor I wish they'd put an end to my running war with you Yeah with you Are you metal, are you man? You've changed in life since you began Yeah began Ladies digging gold from you Will they still dig now you're through Yeah you're through You bought and sold me with your lying words The voices in the deck that you never heard came through Yeah came through Your folly finally got to spend with a gun A poisoned father who has poisoned his son, that's you Yeah that's you I beg you please don't let it get any worse The anger I once had has turned to a curse on you Yeah curse you All of the promises that never came true You're gonna get what is coming to you, that's true Ah, that's true Are you Satan, are you man? You've changed in life since it began It began Vultures sucking gold from you Will they still suck now you're through (Cats, Rats) The search is on, so you just better run And find yourself another way Probably dead, they don't feel a thing To keep them living for another day (Rats, Rat) You are nonentity, you have no destiny You are a victim of a thing unknown A mantle picture of a stolen soul A fornication of your golden throne A smiling face, it means the world to me So tired of sadness and of misery My life it started some time ago Where it will end, I don't know I thought I was so good I thought I was fine I feel my world is out of time But everything is gonna work out fine If it don't I think I'll lose my mind I know, I know, I know, yeah yeah I know Listen to me while I sing this song You might just think the words are wrong Too many people advising me But they don't know what my eyes see But everything is gonna work out fine Blow on a Jug (0:23) Blow on a Jug Everybody come on - blow on a jug Be like me and blow on a jug I want you to blow on a jug Everybody begin - blow on a jug TECHNICAl ECSTASY Back Street Kids (3:46) I'm just another back street kid Rock 'n Roll music is the only thing I really dig Can't stop the music going round inside my head I'm a rock 'n roll soldier, gonna play it until I'm dead Nobody I know is gonna take my rock 'n roll away from me Sitting in the back seat of a shiny limousine Living in a taxi can't remember where I've been Playing my music, sitting in my hotel room Writing about the stars and thinking about the hand of doom Nobody I know is gonna take my rock 'n roll away from me Living life comes easy if you know which way you're going Got to see yourself in other's eye's, surprised? Living like I want to don't come easy, but I'm trying Sorting out what's true and what are lies, it's wise Brought up in a back street living with the salt of the land Seems that now my music's paying off my tax demands So listen to the music, want to see you get so high 'Cause I'm a back street rocker and I will be till the day I die Nobody I know is gonna take my rock 'n roll away from me You Won't Change Me (6:34) I'm just a man and I am what I am Nobody will ever change my ways I don't need money and I don't need no lies I only need to live for today But I'd like to talk things over with you I want to hear the things you say, today Although you won't change my anyway, no no way I wish you'd come and see me, I'd like to hold you I want to set my mind all free You understand me woman, you give me time But I don't need no sympathy Still I wonder what it's like to be loved Instead of hiding in myself Nobody will change me anyway, no no way Nobody's gonna change my world That's something too unreal Nobody will change the way I feel So listen to me now, hear what I say Please give me time and maybe love If there's a God up there, well I hope he helps me I need him now to set me free 'Cause it may be that it's over for me If you don't hear the things that I say, today Nobody will change me anyway, no no way Nobody's gonna change my world, that's something too unreal Nobody will change the way I feel It's Alright (3:58) Told you once about your friends and neighbours They were always seeking but they'll never find it It's alright, yes it's alright Where to go and where to see It's always been this way and it can never be It's alright, yes it's alright Give it all and ask no return And very soon you'll see and you'll begin to learn That's it's alright, yes it's alright Don't you know that it's so good for you You can be making love and see it all go through But it's alright, yes it's alright Gypsy (5:10) Watching the universe at the end of another day Fatalistic ships froma distant shore In the back of my mind I could see she was standing there Like the feeling you have When you've been there before She was a gypsy woman She was as cold as the day, yeah She said I'd got it coming And then she took me away, yeah She took me through the shadows of her sunken dream I thought it's over me, she wasn't all she seemed She took my hand and then she started to speak She told me she'd had the call With eyes of fire that were burning my soul She looked into her crystal ball She read my fortune then she read my mind She didn't like my thoughts at all She showed me shadows, a spectre of life My soul just wanted to scream She stared so deeply into my eyes That's when I fell into a dream When I awoke in bed she lay beside me And she read me with her eyes, she said So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now, now, now Gypsy woman you're the devil in drag You are the queen of all hell You took my body,now you're wasting my soul You've got me under your spell And as the sun shines on another day You're gonna take my mind as well,it's over So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now So you wanna be a gypsy, come on now So you wanna be a gypsy All Moving Parts (Stand Still) (4:59) Super animation, turning on a nation And they're saying all moving parts stand still Since he was elected, adrenalin injected Hear him saying all moving parts should kill Just like the hero he's got them all on the run Yes he's won, yeah Since he passed the motion, they're building in the ocean And he's saying all men should be free What a combination, peace and radiation And he's saying free men should fight for me Just like his momma, he seems to get his pleasure from pain, And the rain, ain't that strange? Very strange, yeah I like choking toys You've got to see me before you meet the boys Teacher's burnt the school He's had enough of sticking to the rules, alright People stop and see He's got to be more decadent than me Just to pass the time He gets his kicks from licking off the wine Pretty silly ladies, all Cynthia's and Sadie's Call him and he takes their numbers down Says he is a woman, should have seen it coming And she says she's married to a clown Just like a lady she'll keep you guessing through the night Not tonight, well I might Oh alright, yeah Rock 'N' Roll Doctor (3:25) Well I'm sick and tired of hearing 'bout the world and it's hang ups Gonna get myself together, take a ride downtown Gotta see my Rock'n'Roll doctor Gotta see my Rock'n'Roll doctor Gotta see my Rock'n'Roll doctor Gotta see him, see him today He's gonna blow me away He makes me happy when I'm feeling down Take away my worry takes away my frown Gotta see my Rock'n'Roll doctor Gotta see my Rock'n'Roll doctor Gotta see my Rock'n'Roll doctor Gotta see him, see him today He gonna blow me away If you wanna feel groovy, give the doctor a call, yeah Doctor rock will help you anytime at all Gotta see my Rock'n'Roll doctor Gotta see my Rock'n'Roll doctor Gotta see my Rock'n'Roll doctor Gotta see him, see him today He gonna blow me away Oh, right away...

I should have seen it in your eyes The endless hours of heartache, waiting for you My summer love has turned to rain, all the pain The silent emptiness of one sided love My life means nothing now you're gone, ooh my baby Dirty Women (7:15) The neon lights are shining on me again I walk the lonely streets in search of a friend I need a lady to help me to get through the night, through the night If I could find one then everything would be alright The sleepy city is dreaming the night time away Out on the street I watch tomorrow becoming today I see a man, he's got take away women for sale, yes for sale Guess that's the answer, 'cause take away women don't fail Oh dirty women, they don't mess around Oh dirty women, they don't mess around You've got me coming, You've got me going around Oh dirty women, they don't mess around Walking the streets I wonder will it ever happen Gotta be good 'cause then everything will be OK If I could score tonight then I will end up happy A woman for sale is gonna help me save my day...
