Lyrics for Song: Hand Of Doom
Lyrics for Album: Paranoid [2009]
What you gonna do? Time's caught up with you
Now you wait your turn, you know there's no return
Change your empty rules, you join the other fools
Turn to something new, now it's killing you
First it was the bomb, Vietnam napalm
Disillusioning, you push the needle in
From life you escape, reality's black drape
Colours in your mind satisfy your time
Oh you, you know you must be blind
To do something like this
To take the sweet that you don't know
You're giving Death a kiss,
Poor little fool now
Your mind is full of pleasure
Your body's looking ill
To you it's shallow leisure
So drop the acid pill, don't stop to think now
You're having a good time baby
But that won't last
Your mind's all full of things
You're living too fast
go out enjoy yourself
Don't bottle it in
You need someone to help you
To stick the needle in, yeah
Now you know the scene, your skin starts turning green
Your eyes no longer seeing life's reality
Push the needle in, face death's sickly grin
Holes are in your skin, caused by deadly pin
Head starts spinning 'round, you fall down to the ground
Feel your body heave, Death's hands starts to weave
It's too late to turn, you don't want to learn
Price of life is high, now you're gonna die

Hand Of Doom
Black Sabbath's "Hand Of Doom" stands as a defining anthem of heavy metal, serving as the opening track on their seminal 1970 album Paranoid. The song exemplifies the band's signature sound, blending heavy, downtuned riffs with Ozzy Osbourne's distinctive vocals to create an atmosphere of impending doom. Released in the mid-1970s, the recording helped establish the genre's blueprint for future acts by combining aggressive instrumentation with a dark, brooding aesthetic. Its enduring legacy lies in its ability to encapsulate the raw energy and theatricality that characterized the early work of the British heavy metal pioneers. |
