| Rage Against the Machine – In My Eyes (Minor Threat cover) Lyrics

I thing song is one of Rages best. You don't get Zac much more angry or self-righteous than this.
The songs about wannabes and confused try hards whether they be drug users ("like the taste"), conforming non-conformers ("want to be different") or apathetic people who've lost the dream of change ("make no difference").
Zac you tell 'em... |

It sounds as if Serg was the lucky bastard to be in an orgy where he was the only male (e.g., just one pogo stick). |

| System of a Down – Johnny Lyrics

I really don't know what this song is about. But to get the ball rolling: Johnny and Roger are too messed up characters. Johnny is neurotic and Roger is Arrogant. Perhaps its about abusive sex. Eg., Roger gives little self-abusing Johnny (The sweet little boy) a good rogerring...Roger is the dominant partner who has all the control over Johnny's self perception... This could be a paedophilic relationship... Or it might not mean this at all... |

No know what the song is about but I remember "Cubert" on the Atari 2600. it was funky game back in those days we're you're little character had to change all the characters on a 3D triangle board to a particular colour without getting hit by those pesky snakes. This goes with the "A pyramid mind fuck" lyrics which is similar to the game perhaps... |

Not sure if its about teenage suicide, thus Serg is asking God "Why the fuck did you take him away from us". or perhaps its an incident of teenage shooting/murder, thus serg is asking the murderer why they killed his friend. |

Perhaps its about people wanting to know what happens after death. Flying being a metaphor for either suicide or proposed after-death experience of flying towards to the light. |

Sounds like an affirmation to live your life on your own terms and not be driven by fear. |

| System of a Down – Science (feat. Arto Tunçboyacıyan) Lyrics

I agree. But perhaps in addition it is implied that society has placed too much importance on scientific knowledge. The result being a loss of spirituality and the environmental devastation that has occurred along with all the industrial and military expansion that has accomanied scientific discovery. |

I agree with 'clumsiest1'. I think they are talking about how American society and its institutions, namely education, leads to self-centred and generic people. People who just want the same old American Dream, of a big house, a wife, and bit of all-night loving.
Come to think of it: that doesn't sound too bad. Perhaps I've been indoctrinated too.... |

Yeah, I agree that it is about police brutality. But I'd say it's specifically focussed on situations where peaceful protests are violently treated by riot police/military, etc.
I think it uses the contrasting imagery of little children (teenage/youth protestors) and the fully automatic holding riot police to show how excessive use of force can be taken for granted in a democratic society... |
