seriously, no band can be judged by one song, now i'm not the biggest SOAD fan but they're music is great music with fantastic riffs wonderful singing and some good political points. their not fantastic but their just as good as thousands of bands out there.

Ok let's bring in the other songs shall we?

Sugar - System Of A Down

The kombucha mushroom people,
Sitting around all day,
Who can believe you,
Who can believe you,
Let your mother pray, (sugar)

Well I’m not there all the time you 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 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….(sugar)

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, 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 she’s o.k. ,she’s o.k.(sugar)
People are always chasing me down,
Trying to push my face to the ground,
Where all they really want to do,
Is suck out my mother ****ing brains, my brains (sugar).

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,
**** you, it all goes away,
How do I feel, what do I say,
**** 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.

Bounce - System Of A Down

Jump, bounce, down, up
I went out on a date
With a girl, a bit late
She had so many friends
Gliding through many hands
I brought my pogo stick
Just to show her a trick
She had so many friends
Gliding through many hands
Jump pogo.....bounce pogo
Down pogo, up pogo
Unannounced twister games
All players with no names
They lined up double quick
But just one pogo stick
Everyone gets to play
Runaway expose
It was so exotic
But just one pogo stick
Jump pogo.....bounce pogo
Down pogo, up pogo
Oh I like to spread you out
Touching whoever’s behind
Jump pogo.....bounce pogo
Down pogo, up pogo

Cigaro - System Of A Down

Cigaro is one of several tracks completed towards
the group's forthcoming album "Mesmerize/Hypnotize".

My cock is much bigger than yours,
my cock can walk right through the door
With a feeling so pure..
it's got you screaming for more.

cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO
cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO

My shit stinks much better than yours,
my shit stinks right down to the floor.
With a feeling so pure,
it's got you coming back for more.

cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO
cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO
cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO
cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO

Can't you see that I love my cock?
Can't you see that you love my cock?
Can't you see that we love my cock?

We're the regulators that de-regulate
We're the animators that de-animate
We're the propagators of all genocide
burning through the world's resources, then we turn and hide

cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO
cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO

We're the regulators that de-regulate
We're the animators that de-animate

cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO
cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
CIGARO CIGARO CIGARO

My cock is much bigger than yours,
my cock can walk right through the door
With a feeling so pure..
it's got you screaming back for more!

ok you've noted some songs and put down the lyrics, you havn't siad anything about them.

I hoped that the lyrics would speak for themselves...

These songs are full of strange crap. I do believe songs about strange crap can be good but the problem is that SOAD likes to make political songs. Not that there's a problem with that specifically but -as Trowble mentioned- those songs are usually just as empty as the "joke" songs.

I rather like soad.....The lyrics may be a little "out there" but Im guessing thats what people love(guess that includes myself)

Yeah I never really understood how
"My cock is much bigger than yours," is considered political, personally I think SOAD are just trying to make stupid songs for the sake of being strange, but as I said, that's my personal opinion.

I think they really do want to make a political statement, they are just rather bad at doing it.
