Say goodbye to Heavy Metal icon Ozzy Osbourne's romance with the U.S. -- he's making preparations to head back to his family's English estate, 'Welder's House' in Buckinghamshire for good, saying in recent chats that, "it’s just time for me to come home."

Famed singer, songwriter, TV personality, and horse whisperer, Ozzy Osbourne, said in a new interview with the U.K.'s The Guardian that, given the current state of affairs in the United States -- mainly the "f***ing ridiculous" amount of mass shootings -- he's looking to relocate back to Jolly Ol'.
This latest admission comes on top of a previous interview in which he commented, "we are leaving LA... the tax is getting too much. I am sad because I really really like staying and living there... If they do the taxes better then I may come back. I do not know."

"Everything's f***ing ridiculous" in the states, Ozzy contends. "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 f***ing crazy," he said bluntly in his latest talk.
"I don’t want to die in America. I don’t want to be buried in f***ing Forest Lawn," Ozzy added. "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 future plans apparently involve building out an entire recording studio within his English estate, laying down some more tracks with his famous friends, and continuing touring until the wheels fall off. "I'll give it the best shot I can for another tour. You have not seen the end of Ozzy Osbourne, I promise you. If I have to go up there and die on the first song, I’ll still be back the next day,” he pledged.
Osbourne's forthcoming thirteenth studio album, the collaboration-packed Patient Number 9, is set for release on September 9.
