Lyrics Black Sabbath

Black Sabbath

Johnny Blade

Tortured and twisted

He walks the street alone

People avoid him

They know the street's his home

Cold blade of silver

His eyes they burn so wild

Mean as a tiger

Society's own child

Those that tried to burn him paid

You don't do that to Johnny Blade

He's the meanest guy around his town

One look and he will cut you down

Johnny Blade, Johnny Blade

Life has no meaning

And Death's his only friend

Will fate surprise him

Where will he meet his end?

He feels so bitter

Yes he's so full of hate

To die in the gutter

I guess that's Johnny's fate

Rivals all across the land

He kills'em with his knife in hand

He's the meanest guy around his town

One look and he will cut you down

Johnny Blade, Johnny Blade

Well you know that Johnny's a spider

And his web is the city at night

He's a victim of modern frustration

That's the reason he's so ready to fight

He's the one who should be afraid

What will happen to you, Johnny Blade?

Oh he knows his future's decided

And he ain't gonna change it, no way

He was born to die in the gutter

He'll keep fighting to the end of his days

Been alone all through his life

His only friend is a switchblade knife

He's the one who should be afraid

What will happen to you, Johnny Blade?

You fool the people

Who's fooling who?

It's time to listen

The fool is you!
