War Pigs
Generals gathered in their masses Just like witches at black masses Evil minds that plot destruction Sorcerer 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 judgment day comes, yeah!
Now in darkness, world stops turning Ashes where the bodies burning No more war pigs have the power Hand of God has struck the hour Day of Judgment, God is calling On their knees the war pigs crawling Begging mercy for their sins Satan, laughing, spreads his wings... Oh Lord, yeah!
There are very few more pro-peace lyrics than Crazy Train
Black Sabbath was my favorite band until I discover Pink Floyd... Many great tunes with Ozzy and with Dio as well. My favorite Ozzy solo song was Killer of Giants.
All aboard Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay Crazy, but that's how it goes Millions of people living as foes Maybe it's not too late To learn how to love And forget how to hate Mental wounds not healing Life's a bitter shame I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I'm going off the rails on a crazy train Let's go I've listened to preachers I've listened to fools I've watched all the dropouts Who make their own rules One person conditioned to rule and control The media sells it, and you live the role Mental wounds still screaming Driving me insane I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I know that things are going wrong for me You gotta listen to my words, yeah Heirs of a cold war That's what we've become Inheriting troubles, I'm mentally numb Crazy, I just cannot bear I'm living with something that just isn't fair Mental wounds not healing Who and what's to blame? I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I'm going off the rails on a crazy train Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha The ledge, ha-ha, the edge
'Revelation Mother Earth' is another one. "Mother, please show the children/Before it's too late/To fight each other, there's no-one winning/We must fight all the hate" Ozzy just announced he's finished up his latest album. I hope he tours again, but if he doesn't I'll fondly remember the three times I did get to see him live.
