Ozzy, and I'm a fan, never wrote his songs (well, he wrote Junior's Eyes). Geezer was Sabbath's lyricist. And, for the first four Ozzy solo albums, Robert Daisley wrote the lyrics. So why mention the solo stuff, well, if you ask Ozzy, or look at the writing credits you'll see Ozzy's name. He paid Robert for not just the use of the lyrics but to also say he wrote them. Side note: this is why Jake Lee left, Ozzy wouldn't credit him with the music Jake wrote.
