Rudolph the Black Sabbath Reindeer
to the tune of "Iron Man"

See his shiny nose
You would even say it glows
Reindeer call him names
Won't let him play no reindeer games.

[Chorus] Nobody wants him
He can't ride on their sleds
Nobody likes him
So Rudolph plots his revenge.

Santa wouldn't believe
Until that foggy Christmas Eve
"With your nose so bright,
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Nobody liked him
They just turned away
Screams of vengeance
As he crashes the sleigh.

Rudolph's nose so red
Fills his victims full of dread
Christmas catastrophe
He'll go down in history.

Song Stories

“Karma Chameleon”

Culture Club | 1983

Boy George has said this song was about standing by what you believe in. However, at the time, he was involved in a secret affair with Culture Club drummer Jon Moss. "Now people can understand the songs better," he said. "They were written about my relationship with Jon, and they were also written about being a gay man in a homophobic world." The lines "If I listen to your lies, would you say/I'm a man without conviction/I'm a man who doesn't know how to sell a contradiction," described his life at the time, he said. "I was selling this big lie."
