| System of a Down – Dreaming Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Good song. But buying "bottled water" does not cause poor people to die. If we did not buy luxuries then there would be no economy. there will always be poor people. This song seems pretty straightforward. Talking about how the world goes beyond its moral values and stretched itself to thin or wrongly by trying to help others and trying to keep luxuries | |

Has it occured to anyone that this song is a satire? It is pointing out such obvious things that are not true. "Why don't presidents fight the war" - they should not. they are politicians, not generals. if we wanted this to happen then we would have a military government such as we did during the revolution and civil war. "why do they always send the poor" - the government does not send the poor they are in fact giving them an option other than the streets. After you serve you have a MUCH better chance of getting a better job. "and we don't live in a facist nation" - that is right. we don't. If we did, we would have presidents fighting the war and something more like germany in the 50's. As for the poor business, we will always have poor people. period. you can't do anything about it. There have to be poor so there can be rich. my family came out of the slums. My parents worked 14hr days to get an education. Sure they have a lot of debt now but they are hard working to pay it off. Just remember one simple thing - it is never just one person's fault. So it is not just the government's fault. the governemnt should help people abroad. Americans should help themselves and each other. we also went into the war because americans demanded more oil. when did we go into the war? under liberal rule. anyway the song is great and I think that this band is both liberal and conservative at times, if not confusing. |
