Answer by Bandcoach
hard to say without an image … but I am guessing that it is probably the pickup protector or the bridge protector that used to be found on these and many fender and copy basses also in the 70′s. If I am right, it looks like an arch that goes over the strings.

I like the ones you clip on the headstock. They’re accurate and fold back when not in use. I have an IntelliTouch which works nicely and also one I found on eBay (Musedo T-23) which I also like.

Lyrics:
They live in countries
With different names
Their works done by mysterious machines
Burn their resources
Exploit mother earth
the next generation will bleed
Strange is this world
Strange are these folks
So many languages
Expressing the same
Spirits that borders cant change
Gigantic walls of ignorance
They built to keep areas clean
Strange world
Strange folks
One more challenge for mankind
A challenge to fight
A challenge to live
To build and create a new world
One more challenge for mankind
A challenge to trust
In their strength to survive
As long as theres choice to decide
Different uniforms
Different regimes
Colors for honor and pride
Blood is the color
That all people bleed
If some of their leaders decide

—–Lyrics—–

In the depths of rock and earth, I took shape
By my father’s lunacy and genius, I built up awarences

Father, engrave, slit
Fill up my veins

My influence spread, my power soared, my legions converted
Holy quest for some, mass grave for others, I eat them all

Amount of learning for my power

Surrounded with legends and distant from others, I copied them yet
Trivial looking although nasty, I bowed to the criteria of a changing world

Into which I fit unduly and prepare my predicted reign
Announcement of the saviours

Protected secret
Manipulated masses
Honored prophecy
Decimated enemies

This failing world
Will be the cocoon of my chrysalis

In search of a neverending evolution
This humanity that believes it’s omniscient
Is getting ready to surrender

Exhausted resources, suffocating nature
Overcrowded areas, non existent tolerance
Ways to a total war with a unique survivor

Ozzy Osbourne – Believer

Eric — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 15:12:25 +0000

Watching time go and feeling belief grow
Rise above the obstacles
People beseech me
But they will never teach me
Things that I already know
I know
Dreams that I have shattered
May not have mattered
Take another point of view
Doubts will arise though
Like chasing a rainbow
I can tell a thing or two
That’s true
You’ve got to believe in yourself
Or no one will believe in you
Imagination like a bird on the wing
Flying, free for you to use
OK baby
I can’t believe they stop and stare
And point their fingers doubting me
Their disbelief suppresses them
But they’re not blind
It’s just that they won’t see
I’m a believer, I ain’t no deceiver
Mountains move before my eyes
Destiny planned out I don’t need no handout
Speculation of the wise
