| System of a Down – Chop Suey! Lyrics

I think it's about domestic abuse. Its classic stuff: the abuser portrays self to be some sort of martyr and therefore justified in their actions which I think explains the "father why have you forsaken me?" He's likening himself to christ on the cross. Also, "hide the scars to fade away the shakeup" and "why you leave the keys upon the table?"...some minor ifraction that incurrs the wrath of the abuser. Its a pretty dark song. |

| Stevie Wonder – Superstition Lyrics

I think that this song probabally is some sort of commentary on the urban atmosphere of the early 70's. It seems to me Stevie found a very catchy-non threatening way to discuss the mistrust of authority and the feeling of pending doom from outside and inside influences (devils on his way). The true genius of this song is that we all danced to it carefree while he was speaking of socially relevant issues. |
