Lyrics
Intro - System of a Down
(chaotic guitars, pounding drums, Serj screaming)
Wake up!
Grab the papers!
Roll it up!
The system wants us dry!
Verse 1 - System of a Down
They poison the water, they poison the air,
But the green is the one thing that they cannot bear!
Corporate suits in their suits getting rich off the pills,
While the people need healing from these corporate ills!
Propaganda on the TV say it makes you insane,
But I'm more sane when I'm elevated in my brain!
They locked up the prophets, they burned down the farms,
Now the whole damn nation got the corporate arms!
Revolution in the lungs, combustion in the chest,
Fuck your prohibition, put that shit to rest!
Armenian in my blood, California in my soul,
Light the torch, watch the system lose control!
Chorus - Snoop Dogg
(laid-back, smooth West Coast flow over heavy SOAD riffs)
B-Y-O-B, bring your own bud,
Puff, puff, pass, let the whole crew flood.
Roll it up, light it up, watch the problems fade,
Snoop Dogg and System, we elevate the game.
Gin and juice got nothin' on this purple haze,
We high as the sky, in a chronic daze.
B-Y-O-B, baby, that's the code,
Smoke weed every day, let the good times roll.
Fo' shizzle, my nizzle, we legal now,
System of a Down, blaze it loud!
Verse 2 - System of a Down
(faster, more unhinged)
Why do they want us sober? Why they fear the green?
'Cause a conscious population is a dangerous machine!
They want us addicted to their poison TV,
While the healing herb grows wild and free!
From the fields of Armenia to the streets of L.A.,
We roll it in the back, blow the pain away!
Serj and Dogg, odd couple in the cypher,
One screaming truth, one floatin' higher and higher!
They call it devil's lettuce, I call it holy smoke,
Burn down the lies, watch the truth get provoked!
Fuck the DEA, fuck the lies they sell,
Weed is the answer, ring the liberty bell!
Chorus - Snoop Dogg
(even smoother, ad-libs)
B-Y-O-B, bring your own bud,
Puff, puff, pass, let the whole crew flood.
Roll it up, light it up, watch the problems fade,
Snoop Dogg and System, we elevate the game.
Yeah, fo' shizzle... pass that shit, Serj...
We high as the sky, in a chronic daze.
B-Y-O-B, baby, that's the code,
Smoke weed every day, let the good vibes flow!
Bridge - System of a Down
breakdown, Serj going full manic
TOXICITY!
In their policy!
HYPOCRISY!
In their democracy!
We roll it!
We smoke it!
We float it!
They choke on it!
WAKE UP!
Wake up!
WAKE UP!
Final Chorus - Snoop Dogg & System of a Down
(Snoop leading, SOAD shouting behind him)
B-Y-O-B, bring your own bud!
Puff, puff, pass, let the whole world flood!
(SOAD: Wake up!)
Roll it up, light it up, watch the system burn!
(SOAD: Burn it down!)
We high forever, never gonna learn!
Smoke weed every day... every day...
(Serj screams)
B-Y-O-BBBB!
Outro - Snoop Dogg
Yeah... System of a Down, Snoop Dogg...
Keep it chronic, baby.
Blaze on.
