SYSTEM OF A DOWN LYRICS

  Lyrics - System of a Down Lyrics

 :: Biography
 :: Albums



Not long ago, accepted sonic belief held that rock music,
certainly hard rock music, had been stretched, manipulated
and tinkered with to its logical end. With no new forms
looming, the genre would slip into malaise and the kids
would look elsewhere for an outlet. Enter Los Angeles
quartet System of a Down, who, over seven years and two
albums have revived and revitalized heavy music with their
manic brand of post-everything hardcore. Millions of
records on, they charge into the new century as living
proof that for those brave enough to snub convention,
greatness follows.

“I think we're ahead of the game,” says
guitarist/songwriter Daron Malakian. “I just feel like this
band will be more respected ten years from now when people
finally figure out what we’re re More...

    Review about System of a Down

    Amazing | Reviewer: charade
        ------ About the song Lonely Day performed by System of a Down

    to me this is my favorite SOAD song only because i have depression and the son really touches home to me. there's more days like this one in the song then happy ones for me. i listen to this alot when i think about my ex and it helps me kinda forget about her. this isnt a parody btw its supposed to be serious


    Not exactly | Reviewer: Steven
        ------ About the song Prison Song performed by System of a Down

    System of a down can't be named a rebelious band like rage against the machine was. In my eyes, System of a down was four heros bringing social affairs into the public's eyes, mainly the genocides in darfur and armenia. They're a beam of hope to the turkish people, even on hiatus. And they have a point, I feel that even though President Obama might not know it I believe presitent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is employed my the U.S. C.I.A. to keep iran viewed as part of this axis of evil.


    I love this song, but you are all so off on the meaning...XD | Reviewer: JackNever
        ------ About the song Vicinity Of Obscenity performed by System of a Down

    OK. Vicinity of Obscenity is most definitely about sex and VD. But there's a little more to it. ...God, there's no nice way to put this. Terra cotta is a hardened and fired clay that is red-brown or orange brown in color. Pie is obviously a euphemism for vagina or pussy. The banana is a dick. Now think about it... it's about anal sex. Terra cotta pie = ass. Banana = dick. The rest about bad feet and all that was interpreted correctly. The name of the song is definitely fitting for the meaning of the lyrics.


    ... The meaning.... | Reviewer: BrrrurrrT
        ------ About the song Vicinity Of Obscenity performed by System of a Down

    This song is about venereal diseases. "whores with bad feet" is derived from prostitutes who coincidentally have them because they wear high heels for long periods of time walking corners and such. sweet "milky seat" would be the side affects of any number of nasty VD's. ALSO! the song begins by screaming "LIAR!" - just read the lyrics and it makes sense. listening to the song will cause hysteria and you'll just lose focus.


    Attack | Reviewer: Steven
        ------ About the song Attack performed by System of a Down

    soad is the most unique band i have ever seen. It's not just becuase the vocals are most of the time oddly distorted. Its because of the way they reach out, with their anti-war songs. All the way down to their songs that do not make an ounce of sense. Good job soad, keep it up


    awesomest song | Reviewer: idaho
        ------ About the song Lonely Day performed by System of a Down

    man i rembered the first time i ever heard this song i just fell in love with it and not that long ago my bf who i haven't seen in weeks sent it to me telling me this is how he felt without me and this so not a parody whoever wrote that has some serious issues just cause it was the loniest day of his life dosen't mean hes making fun of other people


    Awesome Song | Reviewer: LocoLoui

    Good song | Reviewer: Ding
        ------ About the song Lonely Day performed by System of a Down

    Great song.

    Benthedorklord are you fucked up in the head, just because this song has the lyrics "the most loniest day of my life" doesn't mean it's a parody. And if it was a parody... What song was it of?

    fuckin' dumb ass.

    Good job System.


    most of u r wrong | Reviewer: Dom
        ------ About the song Lonely Day performed by System of a Down

    its a lil about depression and about losing someone u love. the guitarists(Daron) bro died in a fire and this song was written about him. thts y theres a lot of fire in the music video, ne1 who thinks this is a parody making fun of depression (benthedorklord) is probably retarted


    Make a difference | Reviewer: Ballbreaker
        ------ About the song Holy Mountains performed by System of a Down

    This song is indeed for the Armenian genocide in Turkey, but a hell lot of things changed since 1915 - most notably, Ataturk came in power and changed the whole country. The people guilty for the genocide are already punished by this Turkish hero - if not, they lay unrestingly in their graves. The true problem is that the modern Turkish government admits that there was no genocide at all, however the Turkish people do not agree with that. Turkey is a modern country like the rest of the modern world /and for me - even more modern in the way of thinking than USA, believe me/, the fact that they are muslims, many of them ON PAPER, and most - believers, but not followers of the religion, does not make them worse than you /not us, I myself am an agnostic/, christians.

    And by the way, I'm from Bulgaria, where the hate against the Turks is really big. That does not change my opinion on the topic.


    >.> | Reviewer: Dante
        ------ About the song Aerials performed by System of a Down

    To all the people saying that this isn't Christian or Christians don't listen to it, that's clearly not true. xD System of a Down are brilliant, intellectual, and their lyrics are genius. There's no point in getting hung up about weather they're metal or not, just listen to the music.
    I'm Christian and I love SoaD, but I won't deny there are some people who find their faith threatened by music. I find it sad they don't have that kind of strength.
    I do blast this, despite my parents not liking it. To all the people worrying about your parents not understanding you, don`t worry. Just be who you are, and they`ll have to accept you. No one even gained anything by wallowing in despair.

    Anyway, I raise my glass to the greatest nu-metal band in a genre of wannabes, who carved out their own style and niche and defied all imitators to kick glorious ass.


    whooo! LINKIN PARK AND SOAD!!!!!! | Reviewer: wouldn't u like 2 know.
        ------ About the song B.Y.O.B performed by System of a Down

    whoo for Linkin Park. i have a strange addiction to them at the mo, well, any way, yeah! this is a brilliant song. trying to learn it on guitar. it's fun to try to learn, but a little difficult for me. (haven't been playing very long). and it's true about poloticians not fighting their own wars. if they start them they should fight in them and finish them!!! i bet if you gave the damn pen-pushing poloticians a gun they wouldn't know what to do!!!
    (whoo for SOAD!!!!!! PEACE OUT DUDES!!!!)


    my sweet revenga | Reviewer: roxy
        ------ About the song Revenga performed by System of a Down

    oh my god,it's too beatiful and cool song;i think this is the best in mezmerize,guitar,vocal,drumm,basse and everything is unbelievable.i love serj and his voice too much,when he sings fast like this song i love him more and more.serj is god of singing and cute daron is god of guitar,they are all genius...


    long live soad***** | Reviewer: roxana*soad fan
        ------ About the song Tentative performed by System of a Down

    *i cant explain that how much i love soad,i just can say extremely,and i have the most respect and love for them,specially serj and daron.this song is the best in hypnotize,very beautiful,emotional and full of meaning like their other songs.it's about war and religion too.soad makes me think so much,makes me happy,makes me have the best fellings.i'm a 17 year girl and a little depressed,some times i wanna hurt myself but soad brings me to life for many hours.i'm agree with you mads completely;if every body knews their message and thoughts this world would be so much better place to live.i wish they come back again,but something tell me that it's too far they come back,john is so cruel because in an interview he said soad is dead,how he said that i dont know,soad is alive forever even they never comeback.i listen to scars on broadway album and serj album so many times,they both made an amazing and cool albums,i cant say witch one is more genius;serj or daron,but i still want soad.in the end i have a question;i wanna know exactly for what they breack up,i heard it was all daron's fault,but i'm not sure,pleas some body answer me in this page if you know.thank you so much*


    Not a common sound | Reviewer: guy
        ------ About artist/band System of a Down

    When i first heard the band on cd, i was blown away by their energy. Only a few bands, like slayer and sepultura,(gods in their own sound),
    have got this unique kind of energy, and it instantly reaches thousands, upon millions of fans.


    This song | Reviewer: Sparky
        ------ About the song Deer Dance performed by System of a Down

    This song is totally SICK!!!! it represents the ideals of the band in every way imaginable. if you don't understand what SOAD is all about, these lyrics will explain it to you. BTW a deer dance is a Cherokee dance of peace.


    The Meaning of Metal | Reviewer: Sparky
        ------ About the song Aerials performed by System of a Down

    Many ppl say that SOAD is not metal, but they are WRONG. there are many different types of metal, and this is just another one of them. For all of the Christians out there who think that metal is Satanic, just understand that it may seem bad, but it really isn't. ppl just use it as a stress relief, a way to express their negative feelings without hurting anything. some of the lyrics may seem questionable, but the meaning is completely different than just a quick glance. there are hidden meanings and ideals in every part of the music. the loud, angry beats and often vulgar lyrics may sound like undirected anger, but if you actually LISTEN to it, you can feel the music, and understand what it really means. this is the reason that metal will never die. the concepts are expressed in more than just music, and anyone who listens to metal will defend it. the music that provokes the most criminal activity is rap, and i think that it is wrong for this accusation to be directed at metal. if you are a metal-devoted teen, and your parents don't like your music, IGNORE THEM! you are an indepenent person, entitled to your own preferences and beliefs. if you feel that metal is a good type of music, LISTEN TO IT! NEVER be afraid to stand up for yourself.


    MrChris- STFU!!! | Reviewer: Sparky
        ------ About the song BYOB performed by System of a Down

    I really don't know what's wrong w/ these ppl- looking up lyrics to a band they dislike then insulting it. the only reason you don't like it is because you don't understand it. if you don't like the song, then don't look up the lyrics to it, you fucking hypocrite! if you have a problem with SOAD and other metal, then LEAVE US ALONE! im so tired of having to listen to this bullshit about how they suck. how would you like it if i looked up the lyrics to a Chris Brown song then dissed him??? its ppl like you who give metal a bad name. ill say this 1 last time- STFU AND LEAVE US AND OUR MUSIC ALONE, ASSHOLES!
    end of rant.
    P.S. look at my entry about what metal really is on the "Fuck the System" lyrics.


    Haha, I love this band :D | Reviewer: Alisa
        ------ About the song Chick 'N Stew performed by System of a Down

    But I think they were rather hungry when they made Steal this Album! I mean every other song has food in it some where. I believe this song is about the over advertising in the U.S. Or, possibly a personal experience of Daron's. Apparently after they got so famous it was very hard on him and he had to get therapy (advertising causes me therapy). What ever this song is about, it's great music from a great band that will always hold a special place in my heart, even if they never come off of their hiatus.
