Civilize the Universe

Civilize the Universe is the seventh track from Ozzy Osbourne's tenth album Black Rain.

Lyrics

  Bombs exploding, and tears are flowing,
  Chasing rockets and gasping for air
  You can call it justice or retribution,
  Yet the reasons are never clear
  
  Freedom is just man's invention
  And a soldier is just a slave
  Self inflicted, so addicted,
  Bad habits are hard to break
  
  I'm alive
  Watching better turn to worse
  One more time
  Try to civilize the universe
  
  Without the righteous, without the faithful,
  We would never accept the obscene
  A false confession, a priest's obsession
  Gives the demon a light to be seen
  
  Burn the witch and hang deserters,
  There's only one choice to be made
  We're thought restricted, and herd afflicted,
  The truth is so hard to take
  
  I'm alive
  Watching better turn to worse
  One more time
  Try to civilize the universe
  
  The righteous and the faithful
  Give the deaf man to the blind
  The world full of confusion
  From a disease of the mind
  
  I'm alive
  Watching better turn to worse
  One more time
  Try to civilize the universe
  
  I'm alive
  Watching better turn to worse
  One more time
  Try to civilize the universe (x2)
