Black Sabbath - Disturbing the Priest

Black Sabbath with Ian Gillan from the Album "Born Again".
====================================
Let's try getting to the sky, hang on or you're going to die
Sour life can turn sweet, it's laying at your feet
Sweet child with an innocent smile watches closely all the while
Don't be fooled when he cries, keep looking at the eyes

Good life is contradiction because of crucifixion
If you're ready and have the need, I will take your soul and plant my seed

You just gotta listen to the night at the ending of the day
You just gotta listen to the night as safety slips away
Moving out of sight are the things you need to see to feel
And as they slip away becoming so unreal unreal
You just gotta listen to the night as you're going up the stairs
You just gotta listen to the night and don't forget to say your prayers
And as you lose control to the eyes in dark disguise
And icy fingers send electric lies

We're disturbing the priest, won't you please come to our feast
Do we mind disturbing the priest, not at all, not at all, not in the least
ahhhh, Do we mind disturbing the priest
aahhhh, not at all, not at all, not in the least

The force of the devil is the darkness the priest has to face
The force of the night will destroy him but will not disgrace
To get into his mind and to his soul you gotta set alight
The flames of doubt so deep inside inside
The devil and the priest can't exist if one goes away
It's just like the battle of the sun and the moon and night and day
The force of the devil, that's we're all told to fear
Watch out for religion when he gets too near too near

We're disturbing the priest, won't you please come to our feast
Do we mind disturbing the priest, not at all, not at all, not in the least

Good life is contradiction because of the crucifixion
If you're ready and have the need, I will take your soul and plant my seed

aahhhh, ahhhh, ah ha ha ha haaa!

Let's try getting to the sky, hang on or you're going to die
Sour life can turn sweet, it's laying at your feet
Sweet child with an innocent smile watches closely all the while
Don't be fooled when he cries, keep looking at the eyes
Oh, disturbing the priest!

@dasbootydan (continued) in the adjacent village church and so would we mind closing the door…? I apologised immediately, we got hold of his schedule and never worked again during those times. The following evening I had a few beers with the vicar and signed some autographs for the choir. It was Geezer who came up with the title as we were laughing about the story some days later."

[LetsGoMetsGo33]

@dasbootydan well i wasn't there, and i don't recall where i first heard/read the account, but the following is from wikipedia's page about the song, attributed to Gillan:"We were in loud playback mode, with the door open...When the track ended I was surprised to see a nervous vicar standing in the doorway. He explained how wonderful he thought the music was, but they were having choir practise... (continued in subsequent post)

[dasbootydan]

@LetsGoMetsGo33 i call bullshit

[themetalhead667]

I love love love this song but I wish the drums were better

[LetsGoMetsGo33]

@TheSavageMaggot Are you trying to be funny? The"h" and "u" keys on my keyboard are tricky so there were some typos. Meanwhile, in a post in which you call me an "asshole" and "dumb ass" because of those typos, you write "lern" and "listern", lol.

[TheSavageMaggot]

@LetsGoMetsGo33 lern how to spell asshole and maybe someone would listern to your dumb ass

[LetsGoMetsGo33]

the story behind this is funny. tere was an old church near where ian and sab were rehearsing, and the vicar stops by and says "cold you boys keep it down between 3 and 4, wehave this choir practice..." the band liked the guy, who was very affable and complimented their music, and respected his wishes, bt geezer got this wicked and fnny song title from the incident, lol.
