cover #9: iron man

song: iron man
cover band: the cardigans
original: black sabbath

comment: it's official, the cardigans can make ANYTHING cute.



first song is cover, second is original.

where can you get it?
black sabbath - iron man
the cardigans - iron man

lyrics: 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
we'll just pass him there
why should we even care

he was turned to steel
in the great magnetic field
when he traveled time
for the future of mankind

nobody wants him
he just stares at the world
planning his vengeance
that he will soon unfurl

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

  1. I love this cover! It is pretty adorable. The Cardigans did a cover of Talking Heads' 'Burning Down the House' with Tom Jones - that's worth checking out. I posted it here:
