Well, it appears that rock legend Ozzy Osbourne is fed up with America.
The legendary front man for Black Sabbath told The Guardian that he’s about to high horse it back to England ASAP, because he doesn’t want to die in “crazy America.”
The 73-year-old told the outlet:
“Everything’s fucking ridiculous there. I’m fed up with people getting killed every day. God knows how many people have been shot in school shootings.
And there was that mass shooting in Vegas at that concert… It’s fucking crazy.
I don’t want to die in America. I don’t want to be buried in fucking Forest Lawn.”
He says the plan is to leave his home in Beverly Hills, and move into a massive estate in Buckinghamshire, England.
He continued:
“I’m English. I want to be back. But, saying that, if my wife said we’ve got to go and live in Timbuktu, I’ll go. But, no. It’s just time for me to come home.”
Ozzy’s wife, Sharon, also added:
“It isn’t the United States of America at all. Nothing’s united about it. It’s a very weird place to live right now.”
I mean, can’t argue with that… it’s probably one of the most divisive political climates I’ve seen in my lifetime.
That being said, we’re talking about a guy who bit the head off a bat on stage, bit the heads off two doves in a business meetings, admitted to killing cats and birds in his backyard, pissed on the Alamo, drugged a vicar, walking around in a constant state of intoxication… and you think American is too crazy?
Sharon also shot down the idea that Ozzy’s battle with Parkinson’s disease is the real reason for their move back to England.
Welp, don’t let the door hit ya on the way out.
But if you’d like to live in Ozzy and Sharon’s Hancock Park, Los Angeles home, just go ahead and cut a check for $18 million and you can live like a rock star.
So, let’s play him out with one of Ozzy’s most American moments… his incredible 7th-inning stretch rendition of “Take Me Out To The Ball Game” at Wrigley Field back in 2003.
Just zero effs given…

And speaking of Ozzy, Carrie Underwood recently released a cover of Ozzy’s “Mama, I’m Coming Home.”
