Boom! Songtext

von System of a Down

I've been walking trough your streets
Where all your money's earning
Where all your building's crying
And clueless neckties working
Revolving fake lawn houses
Housing all your fears
Desensitized by TV
Overbearing advertising
God of consumerism
And all your crooked pictures
Looking good mirrorism
Filtering information
For the public eye
Designed for profiteering
Your neighbour, what a guy!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Every time you drop the bomb
You kill the god your child has born
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Modern globalization
Coupled with condemnations
Unnecessary death
Matador coorporations
Puppeting your frustrations
With the blinded flag
Manufacturing consent
Is the name of the game
The bottom line is money
Nobody gives a fuck
4000 hungry childrens leave us per hour
From starvation
While billions are spent on bombs
Creating death showers

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Every time you drop the bomb
You kill the god your child has born
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Why must we kill our own kind

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Every time you drop the bomb
You kill the god your child has born
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Every time you drop the BOOM!
