System of a down - System of a down 1998
01. SUITE PEE
I had an out of body experience
The other day her name was Jesus
And for her everyone cried, everyone cried, everyone cried
Try her philosophy, try her philosophy, try her philosophy, try
You die for her philosophy, die for her philosophy, die her philosophy, die.
Crossed and terrored ravages of architecture, lend me thy blades
We're crossed and terrored ravages or architecture hoist around the spade.
Try her philosophy, try her philosophy, try her philosophy, try
You die for her philosophy, die for her philosophy, die her philosophy, die.
Die...Die...Die...Why?
Lie naked on the floor and let the messiah go all through our souls.
Lie naked on the floor and let the messiah go all through our souls.
Die... like a mother fucker, die... like a mother fucker, die... like a mother fucker
Why... like a mother fucker
I wanna fuck my way to the garden, cause everyone needs a mother fucker!
The following of a Christ, the following of a Christ, the following of a Christ, the following of a Christ, the falling of Christ, the falling of Christ, the falling of Christ, the falling of Christ.
02. KNOW
Cursed Earth, cursed Earth, cursed Earth, cursed Earth.
I will never feed off the evergreen luster of your heart
All because we all live in the valley of the worlds
When we speak we can peek from the windows of their mouths
To see the land the women chant as they fly up to the sun
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know!
Books all say different things while people flap their yellow wings
Trying to soar, being a whore, of life and almost everything
The sheep that ran off from the herd,
May be dead, now's a bird
Able to fly, able to die, able to fuck your mother's Earth
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know!
On the other side, the other side, the other side
Do you ever try to fly? Do you ever try to fly?
Have you ever wanted to die? Ever wanted to die?
Don't ever try to fly! Don't ever try to fly!
Don't ever try to fly unless you leave your body on the other side
Never try to fly, you ever try to die, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know
You never think you know why, know!
03. SUGAR
The Kombucha mushroom people, sitting around all day
Who can believe you, who can believe you, let your mother pray...(sugar)
I'm not there all the time ya know some people some people some people call it insane, yeah they call it insane, (sugar)
I play Russian Roulette everyday, a man's sport with a bullet called life
Yeah mama called life (sugar)
You know that every time I try to go where I really want to be it's already where I am...cause I'm already there...
The Kombucha mushroom people, sitting around all day
Who can believe you, who can believe you, let your mother pray...(sugar)
I got a gun the other day from Sako, it's cute, it's small, fits right in my pocket, yeah right in my pocket (sugar)
My girl, you know, she lashes out at me sometimes and I just kick her and then, oh baby, she's o.k. (sugar)
People are always chasing me down, pushing my face to the ground
Where all they really want to do is suck out my mother fucking brains, my brains
The Kombucha mushroom people, sitting around all day
Who can believe you, who can believe you, let your mother pray...
I sit in my desolate room, no lights, no music
Just anger! I've killed everyone, I'm away forever but I'm feeling better
How do I feel, what do I say?
Fuck you, it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
Fuck you, it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
How do I feel, what do I say?
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
In the end it all goes away
04. SUGGESTIONS
Watching
From a post up high
From where you see the ships afar
From a well trained eye
The waves all keep on crashing by
If you are the light post
Then you own the working class
But if you want the answers
Then you better give a piece of ass
Warning
Post hypnotic suggestions
Running the ships ashore
The orange light that follows
Will soon proclaim itself God
If you point your answers
You better get ready for the fire
Get ready for the fire
The ships are multiplying day after day sir
And they're coming close to the shore sir
Shore sir
We need to evacuate the light post
It's all over, it's all over, it's all over.
05. SPIDERS
The piercing radiant moon,
The storming of poor June,
All the life running through her hair,
Approaching guiding light,
Our shallow years in fright,
Dreams are made winding through my head,
Through my head,
Before you know, Awake,
Your lives are open wide,
The V-chip gives them sight,
All the life running through her hair,
The spiders all in tune,
The evening of the moon,
Dreams are made winding through my head,
Through my head,
Before you know, Awake
Through my head,
Before you know,
Before you know I will be waiting all awake,
Dreams are made winding through her hair,
Dreams are made winding through her hair.
06. DDEVIL
Plagiarized existence exist,
Among the writers of the word,
Shake your spear at Shakespeare,
Shake your spear at Shakespeare,
Loud and noisy,
Strong refrigerators,
Gaining independence,
Gaining independence,
Stupid people do stupid things,
Smart people outsmart each other,
Then themselves, then themselves,
Then themselves, then themselves,
Take me down there,
Photographic relapse,
People feeding frenzy,
The devil is so lovely,
My blue moon rivets in exits,
Forewarned customary spirits,
By myself, by myself,
By myself, by myself,
Take me down there,
Photographic relapse,
People feeding frenzy,
The devil is so lovely,
Take me down there,
Photographic relapse,
People feeding frenzy,
The devil is so lovely.
07. SOIL
THE PHOENIX HE HELPED CREATE,
OUT OF CONTROL BOY WITHOUT A DAD,
SHOT THE GUN THAT STARTLED MY LIFE,
WHILE I DROVE HIM WITH A FORTY-FIVE.
FRIENDS FOR YEARS IMAGES IN RED,
BLEW OFF HIS OWN MOTHER-FUCKIN HEAD,
CONFIDENCE, DEATH, INSECURITY,
MEN FALL UNREALIZED,
UNREALIZED, UNREALIZED.
MAKING A DECISION OF DEATH,
WHILE EVERYONE AROUND YOU PLED,
NOW YOU FLY IN PEACE,
I HOPE, MY FRIEND,
A MAN CAN'T AVOID WHAT HE'S MEANT TO DO,
WHEN HE'S MEANT TO DO IT,
EVEN IF HE DOESN'T REALLY WANT TO,
MY MEMORIES ARE OF FUN AND FRIENDSHIP,
OF WEAKNESS WITHIN THE STRENGTH OF YOUTH,
FOR REASONS UNDEFINED, REASONS UNDEFINED,
REASONS UNDEFINED, REASONS UNDEFINED.
FRIENDS FOR YEARS IMAGES IN RED,
BLEW OFF HIS OWN MOTHER-FUCKIN HEAD,
CONFIDENCE, DEATH, INSECURITY,
MEN FALL UNREALIZED,
DON'T YOU REALIZE,
EVIL, LIVES IN THE M-FUCKING SKIN,
DON'T YOU REALIZE,
EVIL, LIVES IN THE M-FUCKING SKIN,
UNREALIZED, UNREALIZED.
DON'T YOU, REALIZE, EVIL,
LIVES IN THE MOTHER-FUCKING SKIN,
DON'T YOU, REALIZE , THAT EVIL,
LIVES IN THE MOTHER-FUCKING.
08. WAR
Dark is the light,
The man you fight,
With all your prayers, incantations,
Running away, a trivial day,
Of judgment and deliverance,
To whom was sold, this bounty soul,
A gentile or a priest ?
Who victored over, the Seljuks,
When the holy land was taken
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
Was it the riches, of the land,
Powers of bright darkness,
That lead the noble, to the East,
To fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We must call upon our bright darkness,
Beliefs, they're the bullets of the wicked,
One was written on the sword,
For you must enter a room to destroy it,
International security,
Call of the righteous man,
Needs a reason to kill man,
History teaches us so,
The reason he must attain,
Must be approved by his God,
His child, partisan brother of war,
Of war, we don't speak anymore,
Of war, we don't speak anymore,
Of war, we don't speak anymore,
Of war, we don't speak anymore,
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
We will fight the heathens, We will fight the heathens
09. MIND
Look at each other,
Look at each other, Look at each other, Look at each other.
Go away, Go away, Go away, Go away.......
Mutually, mentally molested children of a Mother,
Mutually, mentally molested children of Sin,
The ever so popular beating that took you under,
The ever so popular beating that broke your skin.
Free thinkers are dangerous,
Blame, Hate, For Fate's Seed.
Go away, Go away, Go away, Go away.......
Need the one you love and love the ones you need,
Need the one you love and love the ones you bleed,
Lives rearranged and lives in my range can you breath
Lives rearranged and lives in my range can you see.
Free thinkers are dangerous,
Blame, Hate, For Fate's, Seed.
Why, Why, Why, Why,
Gonna let you mother fuckers die, Gonna let you mother fuckers die,
Gonna let you mother fuckers die, Why........
Look at each other, Look at each other..

When your stars are baked,
And your rivers fly,
Do you ever believe you were stuck out in the, Sky,
When your castle breaks,
And your feet are dry,
Do you ever believe you were stuck out in the, Sky,
Do you believe, when you're high,
That your life is tried,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high,
When your moon is fake,
And your mermaids cry,
Do you ever believe you were stuck out in the, Sky,
When your tunnel fades,
And your guide is shy,
Do you ever believe you were stuck out in the, Sky,
Do you believe, when you're high,
That your life is tried,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high~
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't you ever get stuck in the sky,
Don't ever get stuck in the sky, when you're high~
