I have a serious question about Ozzy's Iron Man song
What turns him around? First he tries to save all mankind, then a coupla stanzas later, he's out for vengeance.

Also, on further reflection, I was wondering, is he alive or dead, and has he thoughts within his head?

1. Its Black Sabbath's song, not Ozzys
Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all,
Or if he moves will he fall?
Is he alive or dead?
Has he thoughts within his head?
Well just pass him there
Why should we even care?

He was turned to steel
In the great magnetic field
Where he traveled time
For the future of mankind

Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfold

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 heads
Nobody helps him
Now he has his revenge

Heavy boots of lead
Fills his victims full of dread
Running as fast as they can
Iron man lives again!

2. I don't know but it makes me think of
The Wizard of Oz (Ozzy?). I picture the tin man all rusted out and then the munchkins oil his joints and he goes to a hatchet swinging murder spree.
