[Verse 1]
I met a magic man who had a daughter
She learned her lessons well, but still, I taught her
She followed willingly as lambs to slaughter
We shared forbidden fruits and things I brought her

[Chorus]
You may say I'm a miracle mannequin
Here I come with my mystical plan again
Although you think I can, I'm just a man
And I don't walk on water (oh no), I don't walk on water (oh no)

[Verse 2]
I followed willingly a sweet temptation
She had me hypnotized, and still, I'm waiting
My dromedary dreams as wet as oceans
With sand dunes bearing seeds, she's set in motion

[Chorus]
You may say I'm a cynical charlatan
There I go with my whimsical ways again
Although you think I can, I'm just a man
And I don't walk on water (oh no), I don't walk on water (oh no)
I don't walk on water (oh no), I don't walk on water (oh no)

[Bridge]
Kaleidoscopical eyes
As you look in the mirror
And the long is getting shorter
As the far is now nearer

[Pre-Chorus]
Are you just a mirror standing in front of me?
Am I blind? Can my eyes really see?

[Chorus]
You may say I'm a miracle mannequin
Here I come with my mystical plan again
Although you think I can, I'm just a man
And I don't walk on water (oh no), I don't walk on water (oh no)
I don't walk on water (oh no), I don't walk on water (oh no)

[Outro]
I followed willingly (oh no) a sweet temptation
She had me hypnotized (oh no), and still I'm waiting
My dromedary dreams (oh no) as wet as oceans
With sand dunes bearing seeds (oh no), she's set in motion
I followed willingly (oh no) a sweet temptation
She had me hypnotized (oh no), and still I'm waiting
My dromedary dreams (oh no) as wet as oceans
With sand dunes bearing seeds (oh no), she's set in motion
I followed willingly (oh no) a sweet temptation
She had me hypnotized (oh no), and still I'm waiting
My dromedary dreams (oh no) as wet as oceans
With sand dunes bearing seeds (oh no), she's set in motion

Ozzy Osbourne

John Michael “Ozzy” Osbourne (born 3 December 1948) is an English vocalist, songwriter, and television personality informally referred to as “The Godfather of Heavy Metal.” He rose to prominence in the early 1970s as the lead vocalist of the rock band Black Sabbath, whose sound was influential to the development of heavy metal.

Ozzy was fired from Black Sabbath in 1979 over his substance abuse, later sharing, “I was no more fucked up than the rest of them. It was bullshit.” Despite his ensuing depression and continued substance abuse, Sabbath’s manager and his daughter (Sharon Ardon, later Sharon Osbourne) quickly helped him launch a solo career that has been called one of the most unlikely comebacks and most successful enterprises in the history of rock.

His first two albums, featuring former Quiet Riot virtuoso guitarist Randy Rhoads, immediately brought Ozzy to a comparable level of success to his previous band. Both albums are still hailed as having “helped redefine heavy metal.” When Rhoads died in a 1982 plane crash, Ozzy was devastated and considered quitting music, but Sharon insisted he press on.
