Artist/Band: System of a Down
Lyrics for Song: Chop Suey!
Lyrics for Album: Toxicity [2001]



(We're rolling suicide)



Wake up (wake up)

Grab a brush and put a little makeup

Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup (hide the scars to fade away the)

Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?

Here you go, create another fable



You wanted to

Grab a brush and put a little makeup

You wanted to

Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup

You wanted to

Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?

You wanted to



I don't think you trust

In my self-righteous suicide

I cry when angels deserve to die



Wake up (wake up)

Grab a brush and put a little makeup

Hide the scars to fade away the (hide the scars to fade away the shakeup)

Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?

Here you go, create another fable



You wanted to

Grab a brush and put a little makeup

You wanted to

Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup

You wanted to

Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?

You wanted to



I don't think you trust

In my self-righteous suicide

I cry when angels deserve to die

In my self-righteous suicide

I cry when angels deserve to die



Father (Father), Father (Father), Father (Father), Father (Father)

Father into your hands, I commend my spirit

Father, into your hands

Why have you forsaken me

In your eyes, forsaken me

In your thoughts, forsaken me

In your heart, forsaken me, oh



Trust in my self-righteous suicide

I cry when angels deserve to die

In my self-righteous suicide

Why cry when angels deserve to die?


Chop Suey!

Chop Suey! stands as a defining track from System of a Down's breakthrough 2001 album, Toxicity. The song showcases the band's signature blend of heavy metal aggression and unconventional songwriting structures. Serj Tankian's vocal performance shifts dramatically between a soft, melodic verse and an explosive, high-energy chorus, creating a dynamic contrast that became a hallmark of their sound. The recording features intricate guitar work and a driving rhythm section that propels the track through its complex arrangement. As one of the group's most recognizable compositions, it helped solidify their status as innovators within the alternative metal genre. The track remains a staple of their live performances and continues to resonate with listeners for its intense energy and unique musical identity.
