Ozzy Osbourne - Ordinary Man Lyrics






Straight to Hell

Alright now
Come on now

You're flying higher than a kite tonight
You've took the hit and now you feel alright
Your dance be death so we must celebrate
I'll make you scream, I'll make you defecate

Straight to hell tonight
We're going straight to hell
Straight to hell tonight

I'll make you lie, I'll make you steal and kill
I'll make you crawl until your final thrill
Enjoy the ride, I'll plant my bitter seed
You'll kill yourself and I will watch you bleed

Straight to hell tonight
We're going straight to hell
Straight to hell tonight

Straight to hell tonight
We're going straight to hell
Straight to hell tonight

Something is missing and you don't know why
Deeper in the darkness you will hide

Alright now
Alright now

Straight to hell tonight
We're going straight to hell
Straight to hell tonight

Straight to hell tonight
We're going straight to hell
Straight to hell tonight

All My Life

There are places I'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more

Goodbye

Yeasterday has been and gone
Tomorrow will I find the sun or will it rain
Everybody's having fun except me I'm the lonely one
I live in shame

I said hey goodbye to romance yeah
Goodbye to friends and to you
Goodbye to all the past
I guess we'll meet, we'll meet in the end

I've been the king, I've been the clown
Now broken wings can't hold me down
I'm free again
The jester with a broken crown
It won't be me this time around to love in vain

I said hey goodbye to romance yeah
Goodbye to friends and to you
Goodbye to all the past
I guess we'll meet, we'll meet in the end

And I feel the time is right
Although I know That you just might say to me
What ya gonna do
What ya gonna do
But I have to take this chance
Goodbye to friends and true romance
And to all of you and to all of you

Come on now
I said goodbye to romance yeah
Goodbye to friends and to you
Goodbye to all the past
I guess we'll meet, we'll meet in the end

And the weather's lookin' fine and I think the sun will shine again
And I feel I've cleared my mind all the past is left behind again

I said goodbye to romance
Goodbye to friends and to you
Goodbye to all the past
I guess we'll meet, we'll meet in the end

Ordinary Man

I was unprepared for fame
Then everybody knew my name
No more lonely nights, it's all for you
I have traveled many miles
I've seen tears and I've seen smiles
Just remember that it's all for you

Don't forget me as the colors fade
When the lights go down, it's just an empty stage
Okay

Yes, I've been a bad guy
Been higher than the blue sky
And the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man
I've made momma cry
Don't know why I'm still alive
Yes, the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man

Many times I've lost control
They tried to kill my rock and roll
Just remember I'm still here for you
I don't wanna say goodbye
When I do, you'll be alright
After all, I did it all for you

Don't forget me as the colors fade
When the lights go down, it's just an empty stage
Okay

Yes, I've been a bad guy
Been higher than the blue sky
And the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man
I've made momma cry
Don't know why I'm still alive
Yes, the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man

Yes, I've been a bad guy
Been higher than the blue sky
And the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man
I've made momma cry
Don't know why I'm still alive
Yes, the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man

Under the Graveyard

Today I woke up and I hate myself
Death doesn't answer when I cry for help
No high could save me from the depths of hell
I'll drown my mind until I'm someone else

Don't take care of me, be scared of me
My misery owns me
I don't wanna be my enemy
My misery owns me now

Under the graveyard
We're all rotting bones
Oh, oh
Everything you are
Can't take it when you go
Oh, oh
I ain't living this lie no more
Ain't living this lie no more
Oh, oh
It's cold in the graveyard
We all die alone

Cover my eyes so I can't see clear
One sip away from everything I fear
Ashes to ashes, watch me disappear
Closer to home because the end is near

Don't take care of me, be scared of me
My misery owns me
I don't wanna to be my enemy
My misery owns me now

Under the graveyard
We're all rotting bones
Oh, oh
Everything you are
Can't take it when you go
Oh, oh
I ain't living this lie no more
Ain't living this lie no more
Oh, oh
It's cold in the graveyard
We all die alone

(I'm waiting for you)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Under the graveyard
We're all rotting bones
Oh, oh
Everything you are
Can't take it when you go
Oh, oh
I ain't living this lie no more
Ain't living this lie no more
Oh, oh
It's cold in the graveyard
We all die alone
Oh, oh

Eat Me

I'm on the menu
You won't get indigestion
I even come with dessert
I'm not your poison
You won't need medication
Your insides won't even hurt

Eat me
From my skin down to the bone
Eat me
You can evolve
Eat me
You can really give the dog a bone
Before I change my mind and I sink my teeth in you
Eat me

A second helping
My meat is nice and tender
One bite and you will sold
Take me for later
I have no expiration
My blood will never go low

Eat me
From my skin down to the bone
Eat me
You can evolve
Eat me
You can really give the dog a bone
Before I change my mind and I sink my teeth in you
Eat me

Smile as you rip flesh from my spine to my legs
Vile, all the scary things you'll find inside my head
Bite till I'm dead

I'm on the menu
Are you hungry?

Eat me
From my skin down to the bone
Eat me
You can evolve
Eat me
You can really give the dog a bone
Before I change my mind and I sink my teeth in you
Eat me
Eat me

Today is the End

The road to hell isn't paved
Not every soul can be saved (you reap what you sow)
They kill and we give them fame
So tell me who is to blame (you animal)

Run, you better run, you better run
Nowhere to run you can't get away from you

The sun is black the sky is red
And it feels like today is the end
The kids are running as fast as they can
Could it be that today is the end

The silence echos with break
How many more will it take (you reap what you sow)
And we no longer refrain
The devil loves a parade (you animal)

Run, you better run, you better run
Nowhere to run you can't get away from you

The sun is black the sky is red
And it feels like today is the end
The kids are running as fast as they can
Could it be that today is the end

The sun is black the sky is red
And it feels like today is the end
The kids are running as fast as they can
Could it be that today is the end

The sun is black the sky is red
And it feels like today is the end
The kids are running as fast as they can
Could it be that today is the end

Today is the end

Scary Little Green Men

Their colors are blinding me again (I don't belong here)
The skyline is bleeding black and red (how did they get here)
How long, how long, have they been living in my head
How long, how long, we bite our tongues and play pretend

They want us, they need us
They might just try to eat us
They'll greet us, deceive us
Say, "Take us to your leader"

Everybody wants them, until we meet them
Everybody wants them (it's the end)
Scary little green men, do you believe in
Scary little green men (it's the end)

They're hiding amongst us everywhere (they don't belong here)
They're silent, they may be violent
I don't care (I don't belong here)
How long, how long, have they been living in my head
How long, how long, we bite our tongues and play pretend

They want us, they need us
They might just try to eat us
They'll greet us, deceive us
Say, "Take us to your leader"

Everybody wants them, until we meet them
Everybody wants them (it's the end)
Scary little green men, do you believe in
Scary little green men (it's the end)

Men on the moon, won't you tell us the truth
Is there anyone out there
Feeding us lies as we look to the skies
Is there anyone out there now

(Take me to your leader)
(We come in peace)

Everybody wants them, until we meet them
Everybody wants them (it's the end)
Scary little green men, do you believe in
Scary little green men (it's the end)

Men on the moon, won't you tell us the truth
Is there anyone out there
Feeding us lies as we look to the skies
Is there anyone out there now

Look up to the skies
Is there anyone out there now
Ah ah ah ah ah

Scary little green men, do you believe in
Scary little green men (it's the end)
Scary little green men, do you believe in
Scary little green men (it's the end)

Holy for Tonight

Pray for me Father for I know not what I do
I am the monster, yeah you must have read the news
Don't know how it started but I know just how it ends
Pray for me Father 'cause I'm running out of friends

I'm runnin' out of time forever
I know I'm someone that they won't remember

It's gonna be a lonely night
It's gonna be a long and lonely night
Tomorrow is my last goodbye
So I'll be holy for tonight
It's gonna be a lonely night
It's gonna be the longest of my life
I gotta tell a million lies
But I'll be holy for tonight

What will I think of when I speak my final words?
What will it feel like? And I wonder if it hurts
I've just got a mile and I can taste the kiss of death
What will I think of when I take my final breath?

I'm runnin' out of time forever
I know I'm someone that they won't remember

It's gonna be a lonely night
It's gonna be a long and lonely night
Tomorrow is my last goodbye
So I'll be holy for tonight
It's gonna be a lonely night
It's gonna be the longest of my life
I gotta tell a million lies
But I'll be holy for tonight

It's gonna be a lonely night
It's gonna be a long and lonely night
Tomorrow is my last goodbye
So I'll be holy for tonight
It's gonna be a lonely night
It's gonna be the longest of my life
I gotta tell a million lies
But I'll be holy for tonight

Alright
Alright
It's gonna be a lonely night (lonely night)
Tonight (lonely night)
It's gonna be a lonely night (lonely night)
Alright (yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's gonna be a lonely night
Alright

Its a Raid

(It's a raid!)
(Oh no, hide everything)

I hear them breathing on my telephone
I know I'm never alone
I've been to places you should never go
God's really Satan and he's waiting for you out there

Hideaway, I've been locked up for seven days
I'm never coming out
Wide awake, I feel my heart accelerate
I'm never coming down
Mama said you can't kill what's already dead
And all the feds are waiting for me somewhere
Hideaway, I've been locked up for seven days
I'm never coming out
Everybody wants me
Everybody wants me

Outside my window there's a silhouette
My rifle's right beside my bed
Oh Lord, I'm running out of cigarettes
F*ck

Hideaway, I've been locked up for seven days
I'm never coming out
Wide awake, I feel my heart accelerate
I'm never coming down
Mama said you can't kill what's already dead
And all the feds are waiting for me somewhere
Hideaway, I've been locked up for seven days
I'm never coming out
Everybody wants me
Everybody wants me

You're missing your f*cking head, yeah
Everything I am, everything I wanna be (hold on)
Everything I am (get louder), won't you come along with me?
Attack (yeah)
I wanna see you go f*cking animal
Go f*cking crazy, hahaha

It's a raid!

Hideaway, I've been locked up for seven days
I'm never coming out
Wide awake, I feel my heart accelerate
I'm never coming down
Mama said you can't kill what's already dead
And all the feds are waiting for me somewhere
Hideaway, I've been locked up for seven days
I'm never coming out (shit)

Attack!
It's a raid!
Everybody out!
Fire!
F*ck you all!

Take What You Want

I feel you crumble in my arms down to your heart of stone
You bled me dry just like the tears you never show
Why don't you take what you want from me?
Take what you need from me
Take what you want and go
Why don't you take what you want from me?
Take what you need from me
Take what you want and go

I never needed anything from you
And all I ever asked was for the truth
You showed your tongue and it was forked in two
Your venom was lethal, I almost believed you
Yeah, you preyed on my every mistake
Waited on me to break
Held me under hoping I would drown
Like a plague, I was wasting away, tryna find my way out
Find my way out

And if finally came the day
I start giving my heart away
For heaven's sakes, my bones will break
But you'll never own my soul, no

I feel you crumble in my arms down to your heart of stone
You bled me dry just like the tears you never show
Why don't you take what you want from me?
Take what you need from me
Take what you want and go
Why don't you take what you want from me?
Take what you need from me
Take what you want and go

I took them stones you threw, made chains for the crew (ice)
I brought up ten hoes, this coupe only made for two (yessir)
They all ran through it, it ain't nothing left to do
I need some more reasons to live out this evening (straight up)
I been sipping forever and just taking whatever
Hoping, thinking whenever you'll be back around
Let's go our ways, whichever
You say how is however long
'Cause you know I'll never be alone

Love
Shorty gone back
Need it on sight
Crack it all back
Give her that pipe
All of my gang
Shorty went bad

I feel you crumble in my arms down to your heart of stone
You bled me dry just like the tears you never show
Why don't you take what you want from me?
Take what you need from me
Take what you want and go
Why don't you take what you want from me?
Take what you need from me
Take what you want and go

(Take it all away)

Why don't you
(Take what you want, take what you need)
Take what you need from me
(Take what you want, take what you need)
Why don't you
Whatever you need
