Black Sabbath - War Pigs (1970 Paris)
I was making a list, it was getting a somewhat long, I didn't want to leave anyone out, but you know who you are.
Bill Ward kicks butt on drums doesn't he!
A Heartbeat From The Presidency
Black Sabbath - War Pigs
Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerers of deaths 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 judgment 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 struck the hour
Day of judgment, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
All right now!

One of my favorite Sabbath tunes.
"Treating people like pawns in chess"
So THAT's what Ozzy is singing. I always thought it was "treating people like folding chairs" and could never figure out what that meant.
