True, Iduke88. This version was also preformed live in Paris in 1970, one of Sabbath's best concerts. As with the alternate version of "Black Sabbath," it's darker lyrically. I remember hearing on Uranium that Ozzy claimed to have been "stoned" during this recording of the song, which may explain the hint of evil/satanism in the lyrics. Also, any "die-hard" Sabbath fan should know that Geezer Butler is responsible for the Satanism element of Black Sabbath.
Wow ElectricFuneral91. You couldn't be any more wrong. This song is about a Satanist, yes but it tells about how horrible it is to be one and how he was ultimately sacrificed by a bunch of horrible people. The Satanic element of Sabbath was merely from people (mainly Christians) mishearing the lyrics and taking them as a Satanistic thing when in fact none ever were.
