Artist picture
A one man band production paying tribute to his favorite band, Black Sabbath.
Solo Black Sabbath Artist; I began years ago, and wound up like most folks killing myself to live as a journeyman brick mason. Over time life developed into a cornucopia, where I became caught up in the thrill of it all! Suddenly, the wheels of confusion reared they're ugly heads introducing me to the wicked world. I found myself in a sleeping village; behind the wall of sleep.

Lyrics
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 r for you Just for you The faithful image of another man The endless ocean of emotion I swam for you Yeah, for you The shock troopers laying down on the floor I wish they'd fallen into my private war with you Yeah, with you Are you metal, are you man You've changed a lot 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 dark that you never heard came true Yeah came true Your fallen phallic god dismembered and gone A poison father with his poisonous 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 Rob the dead, they don't feel a thing Leave the living for another day (Rats, Rat) You are nonentity, you have no destiny You are a figment of a thing unknown A mental picture of a stolen soul The fornication of your golden throne A smiling face it means the world to me So tired of sadness and of misery
