Black Sabbath

Tonight is All Hallows Eve Night and Day
When Satan comes out to play 
They hold their Black Sabbath Bloody Sabbath 
To delight, excite and appeas the Evil Masses 
They'll be happy when the Sun sinks and goes away 

After that, the Full Red Moon will rise
And Satan has for them a big surprise 
It is as simple as following Satan's Bliss
As evil as he is
With all of this going on, you won't believe your eyes 

Yes, tonight is All Hallows Eve 
AKA, Kids Halloween 
Where they dress up in their favourite disguise and go Trick-or-Treating 
So they can see and be seen 
For them it's a Fun Happy scene 

At the Black Sabbath, people come there wearing Ozzy Glasses 
Just to celebrate Black Masses 
They call themselves Witches and Wiccans 
Every Man, Teenager and Woman
If you see them, give them passage 

They will circle 'round the Old Bloody Oak Tree 
Then there's Dancing done to be 
There will be Blood Sacrifices
A Baby Lamb Suffices
Hopefully, none of this you will see

If you do, you might become the next Sacrifice 
And for you, that would not be nice 
They might just Sacrifice your Blood
Cut your hand so it drips into a cup
Then they'll drink it and dance throughout the Night 

Of course, they'll wait for the Full Red Moon 
Which is coming up real soon 
Before they do any dancing 
They will do a little romancing 
They will dance to the Devil's Fiddle Tune

If you're real unlucky, they will try to enlist you 
To become one of them too
I know that this makes little to no sense 
And you will be hard-pressed to put up a defense 
You better try and run like hell like Gazelles do!

They only gather here at night on All Hallows Eve 
Mostly just to see and be seen
Even though not all of them are evil
Most come to honour the Devil
They do believe in Heaven and hell and in-between 

If they let you go in their strange beliefs 
To you that will be a big relief 
They have gathered here 'round the Old Bloody Oak Tree 
Waiting for the Full Red Moon to rise in great dignity 
Most worship the Devil, the Soul Thief 

When the Full Red Moon is up raised 
She is worthy of great praise 
So they fall to their knees 
And praise her in the Cool October Breeze 
This is only part of their Faith

I don't think most of them know it, but Satan does not save
But still most praise him, rant and rave
Those True Believers give their Souls over to Satan 
In hopes that he will "Save" them
Only God saves, Satan will just send them to hell anyway 

So they dance around to the Red Moon Full
And they bring in the Big Old Bull
Now that will be a very big sacrifice 
'Neath the Full Red Moon when the time is right 
In the meantime, they will just act like fools

Now, when I come in with The Bible 
All of the dancers would go Tribal 
I don't think that that could really believe it 
The all screamed at once, "get out of here with that 
$#/+!!!"
Of killing God's Creatures, I found them all Liable 

They all yelled, "Beware of the Preacher!"
"He's a Ghastly God Teacher!"
I cried, "Listen to what God has said!"
"Or you'll all find yourself in hell when you all are dead!"
In one voice they all replied, "Don't you know Preacher, we're already hell Reachers!"

I then said, "in Satan's fiery hell you don't have to be!"
"If you release your souls to God's reality,
In all of this chaos, sin and strife,
You don't have to let Satan rule your life!"
"Now, try hard to escape Satan's insanity!"

"If you Roll Satan's Bones,
You will lose and be left here all alone!"
"Satan doesn't want your Soul to lose!"
"He wants for him for you to choose!"
"But with Jesus, you can ask forgiveness and come home!"

"Though I am not your Prophet,
Please plug into God's Holy Socket!"
"God will hit you with his Electrical Bright Light,
And everything will be alright!"
"With God, he will give you a new clean life and you will Rock It!"

It's Black Sabbath, Bloody Black Sabbath 
And Satan's on the attack 
If he leaves here with just some Souls 
He will claim to be Victor on the whole 
But your Souls cannot escape from him, it you cannot retract 

Some of the worshipers bring their Black Cat Familiars 
Some have a Black Dog, it's similar 
They pick out the lowest one of each sex
The most wretched wrecks
They encourage them to praise Satan's Evil Villagers 

Some people came there dressed up like a Druid
And Celtic Language, they spoke fluent 
They were Pagans, they don't worship Satan in his Evil Kingdom 
They worship Nature and Nature's Wisdom 
Since they don't worship Satan, Nature is persuant

Satan's Celebrators drink a Witches Brew, smoke Big Cigs and party
They dance 'round the Big Old Bloody Oak Tree and party hardy
This is what it's like, the Black Sabbath Celebration 
Satan just wants their Souls to bring all of it to fruition 
To me the whole bloody, Sinful Business is just Sharty!

To celebrate further, they have a Black Sabbath Feast
They will all feast on Bloody Roast Beast
They'll start up a big Fire
It will reach up to the sky, a Funeral Pyre
They set up all of this and act it out on their little own Cursed Fief

We left them all there to their own devices
I hope, unfortunately, that, for them, that suffices 
Except for the Druids, with the Devil, they were all still dancing 
With their Souls, they were all still chancing 
And they all were still performing Sacrafices

We finally left them, still dancing, while I had saved many Souls
Ones who used to play Satan's Black Sabbath Roles
Ones, who for Hearts, used to have Black Holes
While Satan's Children were still dancing 'round the Old Bloody Oak Tree Bole
I will forever seek to save souls across the Americas, Equater to Equater and Pole to Pol!
