Black Sabbath - Mob Rules
A rumble of thunder, I'm suddenly younger, it´s your spell
No rhyme or reason, a turn of the season, know it full well
The tongue can´t deliver, I shake and I shiver down your soul
You know what you cover, I see for another it's a story told
So get a good hold, yeah
A whistle of voodoo, you thought that you knew who you are
A sep'rate equation, a pencil relation, but the past gone too far
A time of suspicion, a special condition that we all know
So let it all go, yeah
Turn up the night
Turn up the night
Turn up the night, it feels so right
Night time sorrow, taken like the plane
Black will never come out, lies for the same
Evil lurks in twilight, dances in the dark
Makes you need the movement, like a fire needs a spark to burn
A rumble of thunder, I'm suddenly younger, it´s your spell
No rhyme or reason, or time of the season, but oh well
The tongue can´t deliver, I shake and I shiver down your soul
So get a good hold, yeah
Turn up the night
Turn up the night
Turn up the night, it feels so right
Gotta turn up the night
Turn up the night
Turn up the night, it feels so right
Turn up the night
Turn up the night
Turn up the night
Turn up the night
If it feels right
Turn off the light
If it feels right
Shut up the light
Turn up the night
Say you don't love me, you burn
You can´t refuse, but you lose, it's by me
Say you don't want me, you'll learn
Nothing you do will renew till time´s trough
Call me a liar, you knew
You were a fool, but that's cool, it's all right
Call me the devil, it's true
Some can't accept, but I crept inside you
So if a stranger calls you
Don't let him whisper his name
Cause it's voodoo, oh
Fade into shadow, you burn
Your fortune is free, I can see it's no good
Never look back, never turn
It's a question of time till your mine and you learn
So if a stranger sees you
Don't look in his eyes
'Cause he's voodoo, oh
Say you don't love me, you burn
You can refuse, but you'll lose, it's by me
Say you don't want me, youl learn
Nothing you do will renew, 'till time´strough
Voodoo
Right
Bring me your children, they'll burn
Never look back, never turn
Cry me a river, you'll learn
Voodoo
If there isn't light when no one sees
Then how can I know what you might believe
A story told that can't be real
Somehow must reflect the truth we feel, yeah
Fade away, fade away
Vanish into smoke
Fade away, fade away
Break the crystal ball
Oh
It's the sign, feels like the time
On a small world, west of wonder
Somewhere, nowhere all
There's a rainbow that will shimmer
When the summer falls
If an echo doesn't answer
When it hears a searchin' sound
Then the beast is free to wander
But never seen around
And it's the sign of the southern cross
It's the sign of the southern cross
All right
Sail away
Today
Ohh
From the book the word is spoken
Whispers from forgotten sound
Gather all around the young ones
They will make us strong
Reach above your dreams of pleasure
Give a knife tthose who die
Look beyond your own horizons
Sail the ship of signs
And it's the sign of the southern cross
It's the sign of the southern cross
Fade away, fade away
Break the crystal ball
Fade away, fade away
I can't accept it anymore
Ohh
On a real world, west of wonder
Somewhere, nowhere all
There's a rainbow, see it shimmer
When the summer falls
From the book the word is spoken
Whispers from forgotten sound
Gather all around the young ones
They will make us strong
It's the sign of the southern cross
It's the sign of the southern cross
Don't live for pleasure
Make life your treasure
Fade away
Eight miles high, about to fall
And no one there to catch you
Look for the sign, the time
The sign of the southern cross. Play on !
4. E5150 (EVIL) (Instrumental )
Close the city and tell the people that something's coming to call
Death and darkness are rushing forward to stamp light from the wall, oh
You've nothing to say
They'll drag you away
If you listen to fools
The mob rules
The mob rules
Kill the spirit and you'll be blinded, the end is always the same
Play with fire, you burn your fingers and you´ll get hold of a flame, oh
It's over, it's done
The end has begun
If you listen to fools
The mob rules
You've nothing to say
Oh, they're breaking away
If you listen to fools
Break the circle and stop the movement, the wheel is thrown to the ground
Just remember it might stop rolling and take you right back around
You're all fools, fools, fools, fools
The mob rules
Fell in love with a country girl, morning sunshine
She was up from a nether world,
Just to bust another soul
Her eyes were an endless flame, unholy lady
Desire with a special name, made to snatch your soul away, yeah. Ooh, yeah
We sailed away on a crimson tide, down the river
Left my heart on the other side, all to break it into bits
Her smile was a winter song, a sabbath ending
Don't sleep or you'll find me gone, just an image in the air. Oh yeah
In dreams I think of you
I don't know what to do with myself
Time has let me down
She brings broken dreams, falling stars
The endless search for where you are
So wrong, so wrong, so wrong, so wrong
I fell in love with a country girl, morning sunshine
She was up from a nether world, just to bust another soul
Her eyes were an endless flame, unholy lady
Desire with a special name, made to snatch your soul away, oh
Don't sail away on a crimson tide
Don't leave your heart on another side
She rides on an endless flame
Desire wanna scratch your name
Don't ever fall in love
Don't give your heart away
Don´t ever, never fall in love,
with a Country Girl
Oh, Slipping away, just a heartbeat from disaster
Nothing to make me stay, close your eyes and I'll be gone
Turn the page, go to start another story
Slipping away, slipping away, time to move along
No reason to stay
Not when I'm slipping away
Said now look at yourself, you've been running me in circles
Round and round you go, you're a song without an end
Can you alight, yeah, from the city of the gypsies
Running away, slipping away, right behind the plow
Slipping away
Slipping away
Nobody to pay
Look out, 'cause I'm slipping away
Droppin' the glass, I won't leave you my reflection
I´ll kiss you without a fact, no more road to turn me bad
Tell me you will, yeah, just don't question my direction
Breaking away, slipping away, waiting to find yourself...
Slipping away
Slipping away
Got nobody to pay
So, and you're slippin' away
No more running in a circle
It's time to move along
Round, round, round we go
Stuck without an inch
So I'm slipping away
Slipping away
8. Falling off the Edge of the World
I think about closing the door
And lately I think of it more
I'm living well out of my time
I feel like I'm losing my mind
I should be at the table round
A servant of the crown
The keeper of the sign
To sparkle and to shine
Never, no never again
Listen to me and believe what I say if you can
Never, this is the end
You know I've seen the faces of doom and I'm only a man
Help me, tell me I'm sane
I feel a change in the earth, in the wind and the rain
Save me, by turning away
You know I've seen some visions of hell, and I've heard what they say
I've got to be strong, oh oh
I'm falling off the edge of the world, mmm
Think you're safe, but you're wrong
We are falling off the edge of the world
Look up in danger
Nowhere to run
It seems like desperate measures but sometimes it's gotta be done
Over, it's over at last
And the message's inside is we build a new life from the past
We're falling off the edge of the world
Yes, the edge of the world
It's the end of the world
Sometimes I feel like I'm dying at dawn
And sometimes I'm warm as fire
But lately I feel like I'm just gone away
And it goes over, and over, and over again, yeah, yeah
Too many flames, with too much to burn
And life's only made of paper
Oh, how I need to be free of this pain
But it goes over, and over, and over, and over again
Sometimes I cry for the lost and alone
And for their dreams that will all be ashes
But lately I feel like I'm just gone away
And it goes over, and over, and over, and over again
Over, and over, and over again
Over, and over again...
