Black Sabbath - 'War Pigs' - Live in Paris 1970

submitted by gwaan

1 decade 7 years 2 months ago

War Pigs is an anti-war song by British heavy metal pioneers Black Sabbath from their 1970 album, Paranoid. The song talks about war and the absurdities of those who make war without regard to the powerless people who are sent to die.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Awesome! This was one of my first introductions to metal.

Mine too!!

Yes, awesome! And mine three!

Is it me, or do we hear alternative lyrics after the solo? (Maybe he just forgot the real ones.) Too bad, because I always liked that last verse from the LP:

Now in darkness, world stops turning
As the war machine keeps burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of God has sturck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
All right now!
