Black Sabbath 70s: War Pigs. Video & Lyrics
I watched that last video we have posted of Black Sabbath from the 70s of Paranoid and it made me want to get another one up to help round out the Black Sabbath posts. This video is from a concert Sabbath played in Paris, 1970.
Lyrics for the song War Pigs are also below… you know… if you want to sing along. ;) There’s also a small collection of Black Sabbath photos on another POLITUSIC post.
War Pigs Lyrics:
Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerer 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
Yeah!
Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait ’til their judgement day comes
Yeah!
(Bridge)
Now in darkness, world stops turning
Ashes where the bodies burning
No more war pigs have the power
Hand of God has struck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercies for their sins
Satan laughing, spreads his wings
OH LORD YEAH!
