BLACK SABBATH 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 Watch as 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 You people better go and beware! No, no, please, no! THE WIZARD Misty morning, clouds in the sky Without warning, the wizard walks by Casting his shadow, weaving his spell Coming close, twinkling 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 talkin' Just keeps walkin' Spreadin' 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 talkin' Just keeps walkin' Spreadin' his magic BEHIND THE WALL OF SLEEP 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 Oh yeah! Some people say my love cannot be true Please believe me, my love, and I'll show you I will give you those things you thought unreal The sun, the moon, the stars all bear my seal Oh yeah! Follow me now and you will not regret Leaving the life you led before we met You are the first to have this love of mine Forever with me 'till the end of time Your love for me has just got to be real Before you know the way I'm going to feel I'm going to feel I'm going to feel Oh yeah! 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 Oh yeah! Follow me now and you will not regret leaving the life you led before we met You are the first to have this love of mine Forever with me 'till the end of time Your love for me has just got to be real Before you know the way I'm going to feel I'm going to feel I'm going to feel Oh yeah! Now I have you with me, under my power Our love grows stronger now with every hour Look into my eyes, and you'll see who I am My name is Lucifer, please take my hand WICKED WORLD The world today is such a wicked place Fighting going on between the human race People go to work just to earn their bread While people just across the sea Are countin' 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 Red sun rising in the sky Sleeping village, cockerels cry Soft breeze blowing in the trees Peace of mind, feel at ease WARNING 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 ya', 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 ya', baby But my feelings were a little bit too strong Just 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 ya', baby But my feelings were a little bit too strong Just a little bit too strong
