Ching Chime Lyrics
Why make time when no one pays a dime
To remunerate a rhyme over the ching chime
Ch-ch ch-ching chime
Ch-ch ch-ching chime
Creating a crime, just start with Melodie
Looking at a mime, the rhymes are all mine
But no one pays no mind, over the ching chime
Ch-ch ch-ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
In the daytime, face covered by the grime
Sucking on a lime, when no one pays no mind
Slapping on a rhyme, over the ching chime
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
Super Bowl half time, any time is war time
SIR! seasons past time, gonorrhea over time
F*** that and spread time, no a friend of mine
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
I’ll f*** your mind over the spring time
Degrading in your prime, and thoughts so asinine
But no one pays no mind, and no one pays a dime
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
Open your eyes, don’t be this way
Though all your dreams are swept away
The stairs will rise from yesterday
Your tears and fears all melt away
Super Bowl half time, any time is war time
SIR! seasons past time, gonorrhea over time
F*** that and spread time, no a friend of mine
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
I’ll f*** your mind over the spring time
Degrading in your prime, and thoughts so asinine
But no one pays a dime, and no one pays a dime
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
Open your eyes, don’t be this way
Though all your dreams are swept away
The stairs will rise from yesterday
Your tears and fears all melt away
The waters will rush but don’t dismay
As smiles will cross the world will stay
The bridge has crossed itself today
Now close your eyes and sway this way, sway this way
Open your eyes, don’t be this way
Though all your dreams are swept away
The stairs will rise from yesterday
Your tears and fears all melt away
The waters will rush but don’t dismay
As smiles will cross the world will stay
The bridge has crossed itself today
Now close your eyes and sway this way, sway this way
I remunerate a rhyme over the ching chime
Ch-ch ch-ching chime
Ch-ch ch-ching chime
Creating a crime, just starting with Melodie
Looking at a mime, the rhymes are all mine
But no one pays no mind
Over the ching chime, ching chime
In the day time face covered by the grime
Sucking on a lime when no one pays no mind
Slamming on a rhyme, over the ching chime
Over the ching chime, ching chime
To remunerate a rhyme over the ching chime
Ch-ch ch-ching chime
Ch-ch ch-ching chime
Looking at a mime, the rhymes are all mine
But no one pays no mind, over the ching chime
Ch-ch ch-ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
Sucking on a lime, when no one pays no mind
Slapping on a rhyme, over the ching chime
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
SIR! seasons past time, gonorrhea over time
F*** that and spread time, no a friend of mine
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
Degrading in your prime, and thoughts so asinine
But no one pays no mind, and no one pays a dime
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
Though all your dreams are swept away
The stairs will rise from yesterday
Your tears and fears all melt away
SIR! seasons past time, gonorrhea over time
F*** that and spread time, no a friend of mine
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
Degrading in your prime, and thoughts so asinine
But no one pays a dime, and no one pays a dime
Over the ching chime, ch-ch ch-ching chime
Though all your dreams are swept away
The stairs will rise from yesterday
Your tears and fears all melt away
As smiles will cross the world will stay
The bridge has crossed itself today
Now close your eyes and sway this way, sway this way
Though all your dreams are swept away
The stairs will rise from yesterday
Your tears and fears all melt away
As smiles will cross the world will stay
The bridge has crossed itself today
Now close your eyes and sway this way, sway this way
Ch-ch ch-ching chime
Ch-ch ch-ching chime
Looking at a mime, the rhymes are all mine
But no one pays no mind
Over the ching chime, ching chime
Sucking on a lime when no one pays no mind
Slamming on a rhyme, over the ching chime
Over the ching chime, ching chime

While I'm not quite sure what the specific meaning of this song is, I think it has something to do with the unfairness of the music industry or how artist are losing money because people pirate their music instead of actually supporting them.
I really hope you're fucking kidding. I'm 99.99 percent sure the last thing Serj wants is your money, the music is what it's about to him. I made an account just to tell you you're an ass hole.

Woah, dude chill. I'm not saying that money is all he wants, but Serj did say in an interview "The piracy of music has caused a contraction in the industry as we know it, which in turn, has caused labels to focus even less on artist development and focus on the few easy hits. The reach of music and the popular rise of music listening has risen dramatically further through piracy and that's great, of course. So it's really not an easy thing to take sides on. I think people should support artists financially so that artists continue what they...

I think people should support artists financially so that artists continue what they do best and not be forced to look for other avenues of expression or income. You see many more artists touring than making records because that's more profitable. That's not good for the recording of records." Though I really am flattered that you created an account just for me, thank you :)
I'll be honest. I have this CD and I didn't buy it. I haven't bought a CD since I discovered Limewire. Sorry Serj, I love your music and I can't afford to buy CD's. So if its about people like me, I'm sorry for being such a bum.
If you're referring to my comment, I wasn't saying that I shared those exact view points. Hell, I download free music all the time. I just sort of thought that's what the song might have been about, didn't mean to cause any upset or to guilt people. I completely understand not being able to pay a dollar for 500 songs that you could just get free, and hopefully most musicians will value fans over money :)

The key to figuring out this song would be figuring out what the 'ching chime' is.
I believe the song refers to how music can overlay anything in life - an idea, an activity, an injustice to a group of people. Music is therapeutic - we are truly reliant on it to get through seconds, minutes, hours, days. Through difficult times in our lives, boring times, painful times. We need music to understand our world and then to be OK with our world - no matter how twisted, corrupt, or unfair it is. We need it to understand our own emotions and express those emotions. It is a natural byproduct of who we are as humans. This song can explain why there is a songmeanings.com even.
The meaning of the song is about the economy He is a very political singer
So I have deciphered one lyric in here due to the fact that none of the ones on the internet make sense and I'm actually trying to figure out the meanings line by line. After Serj says "Anytime is war time" It sounds like he says "psychic sees his" or "second seasons" or whatever else is our there, but It is because there is a back round noise of one of his little (hey!) noises immediately following what he actually says in between the two words. What its actually says is "Anytime is war time, !SIR! Seasons past time. Which helps alot with the meaning.
