THE OTHER SIDE

Probably my all time favourite singing voice belongs to Ozzy Osbourne. I was so pissed off when he went to meet George Bush. How could the man who sang "War pigs" do that? I later found out that the lyrics were written by the Bass Player.

I had a bit of an epiphany in the studio today jamming with my bass-playing budy. We are the only two members of our band so far. We were playing really subtly for ages. It was like waves. I don't know if it was the lack of oxygen in the basement studio but i felt properly high, for the first time I can remember, playing guitar without dope.

"Maybe you've got to the other side" said my friend. I hope so.

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!

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 judgement day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning
As the war machine keeps burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of God has sturck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
All right now!
