The Prince Of Darkness


Ozzy Osbourne
1948 - 2025
One of the legends of heavy metal, and of rock music in general, passed away from Parkinson's Disease today just seventeen days after his farewell performance in Birmingham.  He was 76 years old.
Standing at the crossroads, world spinning round and round
Know which way I'm going, you can't bring me down
Don't you try to teach me no original sin
I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in

I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me

Tell me I'm a sinner, I've got news for you
I spoke to god this morning and he don't like you
You're telling all the people the original sin
He says, he knows you better than you'll ever know him

I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me

You know it ain't easy
You know it ain't fair
So don't try to please me
Because I really don't care

Don't tell me stories 'cause yesterday's glories
Have gone away, so far away
I've heard it said there's a light up ahead
Lord I hope and pray, I'm here to stay

Tell me I'm a sinner, I've got news for you
I spoke to god this morning and he don't like you
Don't you try to teach me no original sin
I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in

I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
