The Ultimate Sin

Ozzy Osbourne

℗ 1986 Epic Records EPC 26404

Ozzy Osbourne • 1986 • The Ultimate Sin

Osbourne streamlines his approach to keep up with the emerging trend toward slick, radio-ready metal, but The Ultimate Sin is largely unsuccessful, as the performances are flat and uninspired and the material lacks much variety. There are some good moments, including the single "Shot in the Dark," but overall, The Ultimate Sin is unable to push past the level of mediocrity. — Steve Huey.

The Ultimate Sin

(Daisley — Osbourne — Williams)

Overkill enough is enough
There's nothing left of me to devour
You've had your fill I'm all I have left
What can stop your hunger for power
'Cos you took advantage of things that I said
Now the feelings is dead

And that's the ultimate sin
And that's the ultimate sin

Any way I look it at now
The doors are closed and cannot be opened
Bury your anger and bury your dead
Or you'll be left with nothing and no one
There's no point in screaming 'cos you won't be heard
Now the tables have turned

And that's the ultimate sin
And that's the ultimate sin
And that's the ultimate sin
And that's the ultimate sin

I warned you then and I'm warning you now
If you mess with me you're playing with fire
Winds of change that are fanning the flames
Will carry you to your funeral pyre
It's pulling you down
It's your final descent
It's too late to repent

When it's the ultimate sin
When it's the ultimate sin
When it's the ultimate sin
When it's the ultimate sin

Secret Loser

(Daisley — Osbourne — Williams)

Trapped in a lonely body I'm losing control
Can't show my emotion and I'm losing my soul
Could it be that I'm obsessed with feeding my disease
I couldn't make it know the hidden things that no one sees

Loser — I'm a secret loser
Loser — I'm a secret loser

Fighting a losing battle pretending to win
Repenting to holy unknowns pretending to sin
All I do is hide the wounds where blood just won't conceal
Couldn't ever take my soul 'cos it  isn't there to steal

Loser — I'm a secret loser
Loser — I'm a secret loser

Though I'm the loser there is no winner
There's nothing left to win
And hidden reasons now in deletion
Are lost in sin
So need my warning the time is dawning
I'll tell you here's the twist
The truth is lying
Below the surface I don't exist

Loser — I'm a secret loser
Loser — I'm a secret loser

Seeing is not believing it don't mean a thing
Although it appears to be that the loser is king
I can understand that what you see you think is real
But underneath the surface is a wound that cannot heal

Loser — I'm a secret loser
Loser — I'm a secret loser

Never Know Why

(Daisley — Lee — Osbourne)

If we're offensive and pose to a threat
You fear what we represent is a mess
You've missed on the message that says it all
And you'll never know why
Oh no you'll never know why
We rock

It's just a feeling how we excite
You cannot rule everybody in sight
But you condemn don't understand
And you'll never know why
Oh no you'll never know why
We rock, rock, rock
We rock, rock, rock
We rock, rock, rock
You'll never know why
We rock

I leave you cold and in disgust
Don't try to tame me you'll eat my dust
I know that you know not what to do
That's what you'll never know why
Oh no you'll never know why
We rock, rock, rock
We rock, rock, rock
We rock, rock, rock
You'll never know why
We rock

Thank God for the Bomb

(Daisley — Lee — Osbourne)

Like moths in a flame
Is man never gonna change
Time's seen untold aggression
And infliction of pain
If that's one only thing that's stopping war

Than thank God for the bomb
Thank God for the bomb
Thank God for the bomb
Nuke ya, nuke ya
War is just another game
Tailor mind for the insane
But make a threat of their annihilation
And nobody wants to play
If that's the only thing to keep the peace

Than thank God for the bomb
Thank God for the bomb
Thank God for the bomb
Nuke ya, nuke ya

Today was tomorrow yesterday
Its funny how time can slip away
The face of doomsday clock
Has launched a thousand wars
As we near the final hour
Time is the only foe we have

When war is obsolete
I'll thank God for the war's defeat
But any talk about Hell freezing over
Is all said with tongue in cheek
Until the day the war drums beat no more

Than thank God for the bomb
Thank God for the bomb
Thank God for the bomb
Nuke ya, nuke ya

Never

(Daisley — Lee — Osbourne)

It is the voice of your laughter that echoes in vain
In the vessel of your sorrow and pain
It is the beat of heart that you hear in your mind
Something's missing but you cannot explain

You've searched your soul for feeling
Over and over now over and over now
There's no use in dreaming
Over and over now over and over now

It is chain that you're dragging
That was once your relief
That's like everything that's born to die
And the birth of a doubt that was once your belief
Is drowning in the tears that you cry

It's never too late to cry
It's never too late for goodbye
It's never too late to cry
You know you were born to die

If the messiah is coming
Will he be too late
To reconcile our tears without hate
And the memory of freedom
That imprisons our heart
As we're greeted by the cold hand of fate.

It's never too late to cry
It's never too late for goodbye
It's never too late to cry
You know you were born to die

Killer of Giants

(Daisley — Lee — Osbourne)

If none of us believe in war
Then can you tell me what the weapon's for
Listen to me everyone
If the button is pushed
There'll be nowhere to run

Giants sleeping
Giants winning wars within their dreams
Till they wake when it's too late
And in God's name blaspheme

Killer of giants threatens us all
Mountains of madness standing so tall
Marches of protest not stopping the war
Or the killer of giants
Or the killer of giants

Mother nature
People state your case without its worth
Your seas run dry your sleepless eyes
Are turning red alert

Killer of giants threatens us all
Mountains of madness standing so tall
Rising so proudly it has nowhere to fall
With the killer of giants
With the killer of giants

Killer of giants threatens us all
Mountains of madness standing so tall
Marches of protest not stopping the war
Or the killer of giants
Or the killer of giants
Killer of giants
Killer of giants

Fool Like You

(Daisley — Osbourne — Williams)

I hear your breathing though you're so far away
Can you just go where you're going to
I couldn't give a damn or two about a fool like you
That's true

Are just too cool no you're just perfectly cold
And what goes around still comes around
I think it's all summed up and down in a fool like you
That's true

Today is just another day
You hold your ticket into nowhere
It's up to you if you will stay
And turn your day into nightmare

You think you know it think you know it all
But you don't even have a clue
And control is still in view a fool like you
That's true

Is there a reason for the way that you are
Or does it just comes naturally
To have an idiosyncrasy and be a fool like you
That's true

You're hearing you what to hear
Misunderstanding all you see
An attitude in all of us
Is it really you and me

He's biding residing deep within the crowd
And hand out he'll pull you down

You've been found guilty committed every crime
But still they say you must go free
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
That's true

By a fool like you
By a fool like you
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
That's true

Shot in the Dark

(Daisley — Osbourne — Williams)

Out on the street I'm stalking the night
I can hear my heavy breathing
Paid for the kill but it doesn't seem right
Something there I can't believe in
Voices are calling from inside my head
I can hear them, I can hear them
Vanishing memories of thing that were said
They can't try to hurt me now

But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
Shot in the dark
Always creeping upon you

Taught by the powers that preach over me
I can hear their empty reason
I wouldn't listen, I learnt how to fight
I opened my mind to treason
But just like a wounded and when it's too late
They'll remember, they'll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me now

But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
Shot in the dark
Not a thing that you can do
Shot in the dark
Always creeping upon you

But just like a wounded and when it's too late
They'll remember, they'll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me now

But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
Shot in the dark
Not a thing that you can do
Shot in the dark
Always creeping upon you
