Black Sabbath Picture
Black Sabbath is a seminal British hard rock/heavy metal band, originally comprising John "Ozzy" Osbourne (vocals), Frank Anthony Iommi (guitar), Terence "Geezer" Butler (bass), and Bill Ward (drums). They are cited by many as having helped pioneer the Heavy Metal genre in the early 1970s. Black Sabbath formed in Birmingham, England in 1968 under the name Polka Tulk Blues Band (soon shortened to "Polka Tulk"), and later Earth. Initially a blues-rock band, Earth moved in a darker direction when their bassist, Geezer Butler, a fan of the black magic novels of Dennis Wheatley, wrote an occult-themed song titled "Black Sabbath" (the song name was apparently inspired by a 1963 Mario Bava film). (In their reunion concert film, the band stated that the song is based on an experience Geezer had one night when he saw a black object at the end of his bed and noticed the next day that an occult book Ozzy had given him was missing).

Forbidden Lyrics

Black Sabbath

If I had to live again, Id change everything,
cause everything I do, you know that I cant win.
You say it isnt right, but you say it isnt wrong,
How the hell am I supposed to please everyone.
Tell me what it is that Im supposed to do.
I aint here for everybody, but I aint here for you,
You said it isnt right, but you said it isnt wrong.
I wish somebody could tell me, what it is that Ive done wrong.
The best things in live arent given, these things aint for you and me,
Every time you shout forbidden, makes me wonder what you see.
The best things in live arent given, these things aint for you and me,
Every time you shout forbidden, makes me wonder what you see.
You know its gonna get you now, and you know it starts to bring you down.
Tell me what it is that Im supposed to do,
I aint here for everybody, but I aint here for you,
It seems I have to fight, for all the things I want,
Wish somebody could tell me what it is that Ive done wrong.
The best things in live arent given, these things aint for you and me,
Every time you shout forbidden, makes me wonder what you see.
The best things in live arent given, these things aint for you and me,
Every time you shout forbidden, makes me wonder what you see.
Its forbidden.
The best things in live arent given, these things aint for you and me,
Every time you shout forbidden, makes me wonder what you see.
The best things in live arent given, these things aint for you and me,
Every time you shout forbidden, makes me wonder what you see.
Makes me wonder what you see.

This is no ordinary soul, that youre destroying,
Not just another life that drifts along with the sands of time.
We tried to show you on your way, but still, you cannot see, youre hurting me
You told too many lies and so it ends, yeah
You tried to touch me, but then I knew your plan,
You tried to take my world away, oh no,
Now I see it, its as clear as day,
No youll never stand a chance, oh no youll never stand a chance.
You tried to lead me, to the land where you keep your lies,
But Ive seen this read before, oh yeah,
There is no reason why I should listen now,
No youll never stand a chance, oh no youll never stand a chance.
So many people tried before, but still I came through stronger than before,
Someone like you will never get through my door no more,
Nothing you can do will hurt me, I am indestructible.
Nothing you can do will hurt me, I am indestructible. yeah.
Every lie that you tell you get closer,
Closer to the edge of the cauldron and in to the fire, yeah.
Every life you destroy will return, it will come back and haunt you,
For ever and ever.
Nothing you can do will hurt me, I am indestructible.
Nothing you can do will hurt me, I am indestructible. yeah.
This is no ordinary soul that youre destroying,
Not just another life that drifts along with the sands of time.
