"Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" is a heavy metal song by British group, Black Sabbath. It comes off the album self-titled Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. It was released on the album in 1973. The song is the opening track on the album. It appears as the 12th track in the 2006 Black Sabbath Greatest Hits 1970-1978 album.
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath starts out with a more progressive sound and riff. The lyrics and sound to the song appears to be inspired by the band's frustration with their former manager and the sense of betrayal they had felt at times. The song deals with a person who is betrayed and lied to.
