I've never actually heard this song, but did anyone else notice the part where he says "...thinking about the hand of doom..."? I know this could obviously be considered a reference to impending death, etc. but "Hand of Doom" is also a Black Sabbath song about excessive heroin use. Could this be a reference by Ozzy to his own drug use?
@lduke88 yes, I believe you're correct that it is a reference to the singer's drug use. The phrase "hands of doom" comes up in another Black Sabbath song, Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath, in addition to "Hand of Doom' and "Back Street Kids."
