Those were the words we all loved from Ozzy until the remake of War Pigs with entirely wimped out lyrics. It's like the military industrial complex made a phone call and said hey, we don't like what you said about us Ozzy. Change the lyrics. And he did. Or maybe it was just to steal somebody's credit or something, I don't know. Only the original War Pigs had any balls.
Check out Ozzys new album coming 9/9. Song titles may be of interest.
Interesting.
I was an Ozzy fan back in my teen years (showing my age), was always a fan of "War Pigs"
Lyrics:
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,
[Bridge],
Politicians hide themselves away,
They only started the war,
Why should they go out to fight?,
They leave that all to the poor, yeah,
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,
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2],
Now, in darkness, world stops turning,
Ashes where their 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 mercies for their sins,
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings,
Oh, Lord, yeah
[Instrumental Outro: Luke's Wall]
