Ozzy Osbourne - Rock ‘n' Roll Rebel lyrics

They couldn't see what I thought
Would be so obvious
They hide behind the laws they
Made for all of us
The ministry of truth that
Deals with pretense
The ministry of peace that sit's on defense
I'm washing my hands of what
They're trying to do
It's for me, it's for me
It's for you, it's for you

I'm just a rock and roll rebel
I'll tell you no lies
They say I worship the devil
They must be stupid or blind
I'm just a rock and roll rebel

They live a life of fear and insecurity
And all you do is pay for their prosperity
The ministry of fear that won't let you live
The ministry of grace that doesn't forgive
Do what you will to try and make me conform
I'll make you wish that you
Had never been born

Because I'm a rock and roll rebel
I'll do what I please
Yes I'm a rock and roll rebel
And I'm as free as the breeze
I'm just a rock and roll rebel

They'll try playing with your heart
They know it rules your head
If they could read between the lines
You know they'd see the real day

God only knows why they
Couldn't see the obvious
Is it because they manifest the incubus
The ministry of war that got
Caught in the draft
The ministry of joy that still hasn't laughed
When it's all boiled down and
The day's at an end
I'll give you no bullshit
And I'll never pretend

Because I'm a rock and roll rebel
I'll tell you no lies
They say I worship the devil
Why don't they open their eyes
I'm just a rock and roll rebel
A rock and roll rebel
I'm just a rock and roll rebel
