What is the song about? • The song describes the uselessness of bombs and warfare, and compares how thousands can die from starvation and poverty when billions of dollars are spent creating bombs and weaponry. http://www-tc.pbs.org/thewar/images/inline_pics/landing_at_war_03.jpg
Lyrics I've been walking through your streets, all you money's earning, Where all your building's climbing, 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 neighboor, what a guy.Boom, boom, boom, boom, to get more lyrics go to: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/system_of_a_down/boom.html
Is this song convincing? • This song is about how how science is used in so many wrong ways, we could have cured cancer by now but instead we spend the money on bombs and war. • This song is about creation over evolution. System Of A Down strongly supports creationism with such lyrics as:"Science has failed our world, science has failed our mother earth." - This implies that science is often wrong. • I think this song is looked at in many different ways. Some people think it is a religious verses Evolution and that is not what it was made to do.
When did it come out? The album came out in 2005.
Why did I pick this song? • I picked this song because it has a great meaning to it. I have never heard this song before I had to do this project. Once I heard the song I loved it!
