We'd nailed up this ad 'Band looking for a tough singer' and gotten a few replies, one of them from a guy called Ozzy. As we were going to see him I told my pal 'I hope it's not the Ozzy that goes to my school, 'cos he scares me'. It was. -Geezer Butler |

Name | New Career | Comments & Submitter Name |
"Ozzy Osbourne" | "Factory worker" | Osbourne used to work as a horn tester at the local Lucas factory in his hometown at the urging of his mother, but hated the irritatingly loud noise he endured. Interestingly enough, the epithet "Prince of Darkness" was given to Lucas Industries due to their products' shoddy quality before Osbourne adopted the nickname as part of his stage persona. - Maryellen Larkin |
"Tony Ione" | "Sheet Metal Worker" | It's how he lost the tips of his fingers. - Celeste |
"Ozzy Osbourne" | "Slaughterhouse Laboror" | This may have influenced some of his famous stunts, like biting off the head of a live dove during a meeting with his newly signed record company and biting the head off a bat thrown on stage during a concert. - Travis |
"Tony Iommi" | "Metalworker" | Tony Iommi worked in a sheet metal workshop before he became fulltime musician. He lost fingertips of his right hand in an accident just two days before he started his fulltime career - Susanna Viljanen |

"Faeries Wear Boots"
The Funny Lyrics: Went to the doctor, see what he could give me.
He said I'm sorry son, you gone too far. Cuz Smokin and trippin is all that you do. YEAAAAAH!!!! Why They're Funny: Because it is true about every member of Sabbath....and me. Seriously, Black Sabbath is the greatest band ever. Tony Iommi wrote every good metal riff before anyone else could.

"Paranoid"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my life.
People think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time. Make a joke and I will sigh, and you will laugh, and I will cry. Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal. Why They're Nonsensical: Ozz, the condition you suffer from is called melancholia, or just plain depression. Maybe that's why you take Prozac. But, paranoia is an unfounded fear of persecution. Where in this song is the singer paranoid? Dock Ozzy another point in the nonsense category for making many people think that paranoid is synonymous with fear: 'Like, I'm really paranoid about flying.'

"War Pigs"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: Generals gathered in their MASSES!
Just like witches at black MASSES! Why They're Misrhymed: I could swear I heard the same line twice. But Black Sabbath doesn't have to make sense because they're awesome, and this song is a great one.

The Misrhymed Lyrics: Generals gathered in their masses
just like witches at black masses Why They're Misrhymed: the first time i heard this song i was like, 'wow! cool intro' then i heard those first lines and was like 'what? masses? you can't rhyme masses with masses' but, after a few minutes i was like.. well..it is Ozzy Osborne....

"Paranoid"
The Lyrics: Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry.
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal. Why: There Shouldn't Be an "And" there as in "and you will laugh and I will cry." If We Were To Remove An And, It'd Say, "You Will Laugh and I Will Cry".
"happiness I cannot feel" should probably be "I Cannot Feel Happiness". Submitted by: Darius Whitehead
| "Iron Man"
The Lyrics: Heavy boots of lead fills his victims full of dread
Why: "Boots" is the subject, with "of lead" modifying it; "fills" is the verb. "Boots" is plural, and "fills" is singular. If it's re-written as "heavy lead boots fills his victims full of dread", the error is more obvious. It should be "Heavy boots of lead FILL his victims full of dread".

"Am I Going Insane"
The Lyrics: So I'm telling all you people, listen while I sing again
If I don't sound very cheerful, I think that I'm a schizophren Why: It's got a pretty up tempo beat for a Sabbath song. At the end of the song, there are a number of laughing voices in the background. On the version that appears on "We Sold our Soul for Rock 'n' Roll", this is where it ends. But on the original from "Sabotage", it takes a dark turn for the worse when the laughing voices fade out and all you hear is someone screaming and eventually having a breakdown.

The Lyrics: Phantom figures free forever
Why: Three of the four words start with the letter "f", and the one that doesn't has the "ph" which is pronounced the same.
