System of a Down – Kill Rock 'n' Roll Lyrics 20 years ago
And in the interview for mtv.com, Daron was referring to song Hypnotize, not KRNR... here's the quote:

As System's next single and follow-up to "Question!," the band will most likely release Hypnotize's title track.

"I just wrote the song sitting in my car waiting for my girlfriend," Malakian said. "That's about it, man. You will know what I mean when you hear the song."

It wasn't easy to transcribe the lyrics from ONE SHITTY QUALITY RECORDING, so keep your childish rants to yourself.

Circle Takes the Square – Crowquill Lyrics 20 years ago
By the way, does "Nothing's so purile as meter and rhyme" = "Nothing's so puerile as meter and rhyme"? I've noticed a lot of typos in the lyrics page on their official site.

Haiku: A Japanese lyric form having 3 unrhymed lines of 5, 7 and 5 syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.

Coup D'etat: A sudden overthrow or takeover of a governing body or authority.

Haiku D'etat: A rap group comprised of 3 artists -Aceyalone & Mikah 9 from the Freestyle Fellowship, and Abstract Rude of Abstract Tribe Unique (ATU).

Not that I think CTTS sings about a hip hop group, but you must admit, it's an interesting thought nonetheless. Even if the lyrics have nothing to do with the group above, it only adds credibilty to the fact that "Haiku D'Etat" _is_ a play on words 'Haiku' and "Coup D'Etat'.

System of a Down – B.Y.O.B. Lyrics 20 years ago
Those are the official lyrics:

WHY DO THEY ALWAYS SEND THE POOR?!

Barbarisms by Barbaras
With pointed heels
Victorious victories kneel
For brand new spankin' deals
Marching forward hypocrite and
Hypnotic computers
you depend on our protection
Yet you feed us lies from the tablecloth

lalalalalalala lala

Everybody's going to the party have a real good time
Dancing in the desert blowing up the sunshine

Kneeling roses disappearing into
Moses' dry mouth
Breaking into Fort Knox stealing
Our intentions
Hangers sitting dripped in oil
Crying freedom
Handed to absolution
Still you feed us lies from the tablecloth

Everybody's going to the party have a real good time
Dancing in the desert blowing up the sunshine
{x2}

Blast off
It's party time
And we don't live in a fascist nation
Blast off
It's part time
And where the fuck are you?

Where the fuck are you?
Where the fuck are you?
Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor? x4

Kneeling roses disappearing into
Moses' dry mouth
Breaking into Fort Knox stealing
Our Intentions
Hangers sitting dripped in oil
Crying freedom
Handed to absolution
Still you feed us lies from the tablecloth

Everybody's going to the party
have a real good time
Dancing in the desert blowing up the sunshine
Everybody's going to the party
have a real good time
Dancing in the desert blowing up the sun
Where the fuck are you?
Where the fuck are you?
Why don't presidents fight the war?
Why do they always send the poor?
Why don't presidents fight the war?

Why do they always send the poor? x6
They always send the poor x2

The lyrics above may not be 100% accurate; as far as I'm concerned, this song has been performed live twice to this date, and it will be on SOAD's new cd. Check soadonefnet.com for a mp3 file.

System of a Down – Goodbye Blue Sky (Pink Floyd cover) Lyrics 23 years ago
Those are lyrics for other versions:
--= v1 (recorded@Asbury Park, New Jersey, USA)
Oooh
Oooh
When your world is controlled by the same multi-national corporations
That sell you products via chemical & oil;
When the world has been controlled and manipulated for their needs;
Good-bye blue sky, your world is dying, your pharmatist lying,
So that the multinational corporations can make more money off your ass;
The military, national complex, and CIA have sold out the American dream years ago;
BAH!
When 5% of the population can control 95% of the assets;
You're not one of them [laughs] neither am I;
Good-Bye Blue Sky, unless you open your eyes, your world will be over in 10-12 years, Good luck
(Good-Bye Blue Sky)

--= v2 (recorded@Lowlands Bootleg)
Oooh
Oooh
Goodbye blue sky, Goodbye blue sky, Goodbye
Goodbye blue sky, Goodbye blue sky, Goodbye
[Goodbye, to the ??? traditions
We are heading toward self proclaimed environment of injustice, disease and death.
Be aware].

--= v3 (recorded@Rochester)
Oooh
-- forest and theres the global market economy
Oooh
When life as we know it exists only in the vein of your minds
When your earth is dying, your sky, your earth, your water, your forests
The genetic world is taking over mutations of planet earth
Your world is dying
Goodbye blue sky, goodbye
The CIA has sold you out along with the pentagon
For a much better game a much more profitable motive
Goodbye blue sky
Multinational corporate america is what you live in, not a democracy
Goodbye blue sky, goodbye
Goodbye blue skies unless you open your eyes
Unless you open your eyes to what the world is happening
Goodbye blue sky
The third world is waiting for you to wake up
Goodbye blue sky, goodbye

--= v4 (recorded@Big Day Out, Australia)
Oooh
Oooh
10000 years ago in Mesopotamia a new type of thinking was developed
One that involved totalitary and agroculture
And now...
Goodbye blue sky
Goodbye blue sky
We fall in sleep as people as animals on this planet
We are here to neutral planet
We are here... to help god in this fucking place not destroy it for god sakes!
I'm sick and tired of an equal globalism
I'm sick and tired of fascism
I'm sick and tired of this type of people
