I am looking for a mp3

[BigBen]

Hi folks,
I am looking for the track Walpurgis by Black Sabbath ..... it is the original lyrics for the track War Pigs. The lyrics won't be to everyone tastes but I want the track for the sake of completeness. If anyone has it or can download it and send it to me I would be grateful :)

War Pigs
Generals gathered in their masses
just like witches at black masses
evil minds that plot destruction
sorcerers of death's construction
in the fields the bodies burning as the war machine keeps turning
death and hatred to mankind
poisoning their brainwashed minds... Oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
they only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait 'till their judgment day comes, yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning
as the war machine keeps burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of god has struck the hour
Day of judgment, god is calling on their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
ALL RIGHT NOW!

Walpurgis

(Walpurgis is the original name of this song - and it had totally different lyrics back then. The only place where that version of the song is (legally) available is on the Ozzy "Ozzman Cometh" Greatest Hits CD.)

Witches gather at black masses
Bodies burning in red ashes
On the hill the church in ruin.
Is the scene of evil doings
It's a place for all bad sinners
Watch them eating dead rats' innards.
I guess it's the same, where ever you may go
Oh lord yeah

Carry banners which denounce the lord
See me rocking in my grave
See them anoint my head with dead rat's blood
See them stick the stake through me
Oh

Don't hold me back cause I just gotta go
(Sat'n/They) got a hold of my soul now
Lords got my brain instinct with blood obscene
Look in my eyes I'm there enough
Yeah

On the scene a priest appears
Sinners falling at his knees
Satan sends out funeral pyre
Casts the priest into the fire
It's the place for all bad sinners.
Watch them eating dead rats' innards
I guess it's the same, where ever you may go
Oh lord yeah

Hi :)
No it was not on the first album, (which I have) because of the lyrics which are a bit OZZY!! :D they were changed so as not to offend too many people which is kinda funny as he has been offending lots of people all his life :D The only place where to get the Walpurgis version of the song is (legally) available is on the Ozzy "Ozzman Cometh" Greatest Hits CD. War Pigs was brought out on the Paranoid album so I guess Walpurgis was originally intended for release on that
