Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come on let's go fuck you up
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Or if he moves will he fall?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Is he alive or dead?
Has he thoughts within his head?
We'll just pass him there
Why should we even care?
Come on you fuckers
God bless you all
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
He was turned to steel
In the great magnetic field
Where he traveled time
For the future of mankind
Nobody wants him
They just turn their head
Nobody helps him
Now he waits in regret
I wanna hear everybody now, come on
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Now the time is here
For Iron Man to spread fear
Vengeance from the grave
Kills the people he once saved
Nobody wants him
They just turn their head
Nobody helps him
So he waits in regret
Alright let's see a fucking wild call
Come on
Come on
Go fucking crazy
The lyrics to Ozzy Osbourne's iconic song "Iron Man" describe the story of a man who was turned into steel after traveling through a great magnetic field. The man is left isolated and rejected by society, with nobody caring whether he is alive or dead. The opening lines of the song - "I am Iron Man / Has he lost his mind?" - seem to signify this once-human character identifying with his metallic form and embracing his new identity.
The chorus of the song, with its repeated "Oh, oh, oh, oh" lines, becomes a sort of battle cry for the Iron Man, as he faces the rejection of society and seeks revenge on those who once rejected him. He is described as waiting in regret, suggesting that he has negative emotions surrounding his transformation and perhaps wishes he could go back to his human form.
The song's lyrics have been interpreted in numerous ways, with some seeing it as a commentary on the nature of human isolation and others believing it to be a representation of the dangers of scientific experimentation. Regardless of the interpretation, "Iron Man" has stood the test of time as one of heavy metal's most iconic songs, full of iconic riffs and powerful lyrics.
