OZZY OUTBURSTS ON THE RISE AS TIME RUNS OUT!

CANTANKEROUS Ozzy Osbourne's crippled body and constant pain are causing the ranting rocker to lash out, according to sources who fear the Crazy Train singer is on the fast track to his final days!

The heavy metal legend, 75, recently called his lifelong friend- and Black Sabbath co-founder Geezer Butler, 74, a "f**king a**hole" and accused his bandmate of never reaching out during his health struggles.

But Geezer insists he emailed twice - and the bat-biting wild man never responded! A tipster spills Ozzy's devoted wife, Sharon, did reply to one of Geezer's messages - but the second went unanswered.
