Ozzy Osbourne - Junkie Lyrics

I started listening to Ozzy in the early eighties still listening to him today

Sounds like zack wylde on guitar

I let my dope sick neighbor hear this everyday

😂😂😂😂😂😂

You're coming down badly
.
You're crippled inside
.
A rat in your sewer
.
You've no place to hide
.
A gut wrenching fever
.
Addicted to death
.
You don't give a fuck
.
If it means your last breath
You try so hard to quit
.
But you'll never admit
.
You're the junkie
.
There's no reasoning why
.
'Cause the mirror don't lie
.
You're the junkie
.
You crave for the needle to stick in your vein
.
Can't for the poison to kill all the pain
.
You buy your cheap ticket to take a short ride
.
That beautiful flower is eating your mind
.
You try so hard to quit
.
But you'll never admit
.
You're the junkie
.
There's no reasoning why
.
'Cause the mirror don't lie
.
You're the junkie
.
Your name means nothing
.
You don't know the score
.
Body is aching you still crave for more
.
Sometimes you wish that you'd never been born
.
Tormenting came with a crown full of thorns
.
You're chasing the dragon you're chasing the high
.
A bird with one wing
.
Who's still trying to fly
.
You're all out of spirit
.
A dead man alive
.
A born again junkie
.
You'll never survive
.
You try so hard to quit
.
But you'll never admit
.
You're the junkie
.
There's no reasoning why
.
'Cause the mirror don't lie
.
You're the junkie
.
Junkie
.
Junkie
.
Junkie
.
Junkie.

At 00:09 when all instruments get in when you listen in ear phones you can hear a sibiling “aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh” subliminal like a whisper when the thing hit!
Ozzy with zack and trujillo, like we say in Brazil, “puta q pariu”!!! Ultra strong sound! It’s a shame he don’t play that B side songs at the stage!!!

Ozzy kicks ass

any 1 sober here? xD joke

I'm right here 🤘

18 months off the needle 1 day at a time guys good luck ur gonna need it

Solo without bass is shit

This song sounds even better when you're high , in my humble opinion . I was listening to it sober earlier today, now I just smoked 3 different things and now it has me dancing around the room .✌🏽✌🏽

Bro, I don't think you know the meaning of this song.

😂😂😂😂😂

This is a little known gem. My favourite Sabbath song. Amazing.

Ozzy left Sabbath decades ago... It's an Ozzy song..

Here want some? Wide awake!!

Porn, alcohol, cigarettes, energy drinks, currently severely addicted to all of them atm, like over the top with them quitting tomorrow, let's hope they work, especially alcohol

blckmge sound how is going

[email protected] 3:40

Spun !!

catch me come on...catch me!

3:40 Drop A tuning?

Damn! I love Ozzy! ✌😍✌

This was the last album I got in physical cassette form.

I was BORN addicted to heroin to an addict mother who used ... born screaming and didn't stop ... no fucking wonder!!!

Junkie... Thats me! Ozzy uses my internet name, I call someone to get some money. I have not given permission to use my name. Someone have to pay me for it... Good song... I forgive.

The demon inside 😫👊🏻

Wow, I remember when this song/album came out man. I thought this was a wicked tune, but I never thought I would know first-hand what the Ozzman was singing about... Here I am X amount of years later addicted to heroine and meth, silently hoping every single fucking day that something will fucking kill me. I've had several overdoses, but there's ways some helpful fucking asshole around to hit me with a shot of narcan or call 911... Fuck...

I put the lyrics here for myself but if others need them here they are.

Absolutely love everything about you Ozzy! So intriguing and mysterious.. 💞.. I also love the sound of your voice!

Ozzy's voice, it's even more pervert than Rob Halvords's. (sorry for typos, I just put my breakfast in vein)

Yeah, like why did he marry that cunt Sharon?

You buy your cheap ticket to take a short ride
That beautiful flower is eating your mind

What I dont get is I like this better than osmosis but love all the albums in pretty much chronological order. Id switch no rest for the wicked with shot in the dark

I decided this song to my ex, still a junkie and missing his kids life. I have never been happier to be out of the grip of a junkie.

It's like I said I like all Ozzy's music. even back in his Black Sabbath day's.
🤘🤓👍
Call me a Ozzy "junkie"
what can I say.

PAIN PILLS, ALCOHOL & ASS

I've been an ozzy junkie since 1991

Awesome

I dedicate this to my ex-stepson Ruben Faller,who's sitting in prison cos he's a drgon-chasing worthless junkie bagga shitt!!!!

Chasing the Dragon chasing the high

Chasing. The dragon.doesnt that refer. To pot?

@Steven h - it refers to meth ✌🏽

Hahaha!! I am the 1000th like!!

this song is awesome, bounce! Pogo! Pogo! Pogo! Pogo! Pogo! Pogo! Pogo! bounce! yes I know one is about girl and this is about boy but needles regardless..

no saben pendejos h es lo mejor

It's about any drug, or hard alcohol that makes you a junkie. And yes, alcoholics can be junkies too. Those that wake up in the morning and the first thing they do is grab the bottle, and that's how they get through their day, every day

Kristefer Quealey
Junkie - a person with a compulsive habit or obsessive dependency on something.
Like you said the Lyrics can apply to other drugs. An obsessive dependency to buy some new trendy thing each day of the week would make one a junkie

you are dead on it so many people are confused and yes alcohol pimps you just like heroin or coke or whatever

you can be a functional "alcoholic" but I haven't seen too many functional heroin/meth addicts just my observation

@first last true ive been all of them so i know

@Kristefer Quealey true but just about anything can make you a junkie

Fuck heroin.

I'm a junkie for Jane.

I'm glad this version isn't censored

I’m 17 and this is one of my most favorite songs even though I wasn’t ole enough to remember when it came out

Dude this came out in the early 2000's so ya way before your time lol.

Nick Reyes he still wouldn't have been old enough to remember, I'm 24 and barely remember when I was 6.

I'M A JUNKIE

Being that ozzy did alot of drugs this is his song for everyone else to warn them about the lifestyle but it is basically about heroine and methamphetamine "chasing the dragon" So stay off the drugs kids.

creep night hell yea he did he kept G .. he didnt betray the devil .

I'm still a junkie

Ask Jesus for help

I'm still a junkie

You can nea er team the dragon,you must kill it !!!

1 and 1/2 years clean. I was addicted for a little over a decade and I can tell you, the only way to stop is to truly want it.

Back to say I quit although I still have quite the alcohol addictions

Demon alcohol

I'm a junkie

I'm a junkie

beautiful flower eating your mind = opeum

...and weed: You buy your cheap ticket to take a short ride
That beautiful flower is eating your mind

@Walla 4 u bro https://youtu.be/TCSUKIhjevo

@Patrick Bruns opium what is used to make heroin is made from the poppy flower. I'm pretty sure that's what he was referring too. Poppies are very beautiful

oh really is it now?

Trying to get off that shit now .. it’s hard but I can do it

Don´t be stupid.

U pray for the needle to stick in your vein!, can't wait for the poison to kill all the pain. (Know that term well) sober since 2007 thank God.

got yourself and throw it .
And see it tomorrow...

You're chasing the dragon You're chasing the high A bird with one wing Who's still trying to fly

dixirkt clean

i love it this shit is so on point with what a junkie is i know unfortunately

It's huge waste to chase the dragon... I preferred intravenous injektion for 17 years, now I take methadoneshots. Once Junkie always Junkie. Thath's it.

he isn't talking about meth he is talking about heroin, idiots

And there you go!

yeah he's talking about drugs in general

Foxtrot Skywalker I agree people hear don't listen

Foxtrot Skywalker and y the fuck does this bother u get a life

You're the idiot jackwad!!

one of the best songs ever!!! describes live as a junkie so well.. love Zack wyelds guitar solo. sorry for the miss spelling.

maddog76 lol

Colleen Dowd WHO THE FUCK IS ZACK WYELDS???

Yes. Bought this new and right off the bat felt the same...about the solo.

+wow06 Yeah, right. Goes to show you know less than nothing about what a tweaker sounds like. I won't deny when I was in my teens (in the '70s) I loved gettin high. And I did. On real good acid, like 4 way window pane, and orange Sunshine. Tried everything else too, but speed back then was either black beauties or Preludin. There was no meth yet. Not on the South Side of Chicago. And I never liked speed. So wow, learn something. Read a book. Cuz you come across like your mommy and daddy were siblings. (That means they were Brother and Sister) I know you don't have the brain capacity to know that. DICK.

+Johnny Joseph lol you mad bro? lay off the window pane and little boys lol you'll be ok

Johnny Joseph get high again

There was meth back then but it was crystal meth and amped you about 14 hrs on a dime but still. Anyway I lived it to back in the day and the song is true inside and out man

Today weed is even called flower. This came out way way way later than the 70's. Zakk wylde is playing the guitar, which means 90's til today. This is about meth, coke, and h. Each verse has a different drug it is talking about.

.......send you off to military school with the goddamn finkelstine shit kid sonnabitch

Band and scoop! Like the Mexicans.

+smokeyBREWER His names Ralph, man.

buy a cheap ticket to take a short ride

And then I paid humongous pile of money for cheap tickets daily for 17 years.

This song should be the theme song for the TV show called Intervention

+Randito C. You watch 2much t.v. broski lol

+Randito C. Stupid

fdasf fdasfdsa I guess he hurt your drug filled feelings.

Damn right

Nah because I think it would be glorifying it, because this song is BADASS !!

Ricky Bobby

Forgot about this song, but I just watched SPUN and the soundtrack is brilliant. Even though Billy Corgan did it. Very cool covers of Love To Love, Loving You Sunday Morning, and Number Of The Beast. Crazy fuckin' movie. That movie should be required for junior high students. Paints meth addiction the way it should be portrayed: By drug addled lunatics that live here, but are in fact, on a different planet! FUCK METH and every scuzzball making it.

I agree with you 100%

+chitownbluesy uuummmmm ok..... you sound like you on meth broski lol

+chitownbluesy ..i live in missouri...ive seen meth destroy so many lives....you never hear a meth story...with a happy ending...worst drug ever...and unlike heroin ...meth kills you very slowly rotting you from the inside out...nightmare drug for sure..

maddog76; I think you have LIFE confused with meth !
For sure though, I have known and know, all sorts of meth users and they are as different from one another as coffee or beer drinkers. That said, my least favorite sort of drug user is the heavy meth user, who even when not using, is an aggressive, arrogant asshole, absent the psychosis.
Speaking of heroin; this substance in pure form is one of the safest of all known drugs, when used by professional medical practitioners or for that matter, even knowledgeable, experienced heroin users.

Please take note of the fact that with each and every wave of drug crackdowns, comes a subsequent drug ''epidemic'' and increased loss of life. These crackdowns are often accompanied by the emergence of new and more dangerous drugs and the restriction of relatively safe drugs that are in high demand.
I could delve into the history of drug prohibition but the truth is, people are aware of the fact that the drug war was initiated for all the wrong reasons, and was never about promoting the health of the public. Sadly a large number of so called, ''patriotic, freedom loving Americans, '' though they are aware of the history of the drug war, not only continue to support this travesty in current form, but would actually like to see more of their fellow Americans, whom choose to use drugs, caged away like animals for even longer periods of time, or even executed by the state; the same state that is, that they often argue should be ''small'' and have next to no authority over individuals, or especially, commercial activity.
Even if the drug war was being waged for the purpose of protecting public health, such a war, at least in current form, would represent an aspect of what could very well be called Authoritarian socialism. Ironically, the most ardent of drug war supporters, are also the very same people whom have the greatest hatred of, and or fear of, any aspect of socialism, or any form of socialism.
Just as ironic, '' ironically stupid,'' is the fact that some of the most strident drug warriors, will tell you that yes, of course we as a society have a right and even a duty to protect the health of the public, by severely punishing any individual who might choose to use an illicit substance. Lo and behold, more than a few of the people who believe that an individual should be punished by the state, for the ''crime'' of willfully choosing to use, say, even one of the once legal, over the counter amphetamines, in order to get through a hard day of roofing, are the same people whom believe that the government, should not regulate the amount or types of toxic, industrial waste, businesses can dump into our environment !
Holly shit, it's almost like some people just simply can not think rationally at all !

You lot are taking the micky mouse hehe x
