    This is why, especially with a band like System of a Down, I never buy into the idea that some lyrics are just meaningless absurdity, and aren’t meant to or worth being considered. Fortunately, you deliver some of the most eloquent and accurate lyrical deciphering I’ve seen from a reaction channel. If you can figure this one out, you could probably tackle their whole catalogue.

  • @randomfrankp
    @randomfrankp 3 роки тому +135

    Great job with the analysis here, just one thing to also add which may add to the overall takeaway from the song is the band used to use this as a person warm-up for practices. Explains the song vibe; heavy & hard to groovy riffs, high and low pitched vocals, etc.

    • @sammyv9167

    You have cracked the Da Vinci code and my eyes are open to a whole new dawn. Holy crap. It's so obvious in hindsight but I always assumed the chorus was nonsense - the verses are pretty straightforward thankfully. Maybe I need to go back to the other songs I thought had nonsense.

    Holy shit you deciphered one of their most random songs (and correctly, might I add) in one try. Wow. xD

  • @jaket9922
    @jaket9922 3 роки тому +70

    it feeds into the meaning of the album it's on. The songs speak to the "mezmorizing/hypnotizing" nature of modern media/life/hollywood/adult content. Distractions, they all distract us and keep us complacent. This is definitely a song that suffers out of context.

  • @Deltron_Zero
    @Deltron_Zero 3 роки тому +34

  • @el-violador
    @el-violador 3 роки тому +164

    My understanding of the song is it's about the unrealistic expectations that come from pornography. Banana terracotta pie you got in 1. I have a feeling the "whores with bad feet" are pornographic actresses wearing heels a lot and we learn defeat from them because of the inadequacy we get from watching attractive people with "bananas" much bigger than ours doing it. "is there a perfect way to hold you baby" to me is either not knowing how to hold someone because of the disillusion that comes from porn or how staged and unnatural the positions they use are. Either way great break down. Would love Attack, cigaro or holy mountains from SOAD next

    • @Tzimisce_Joe
      @Tzimisce_Joe 2 роки тому +1

      It can also be a double with 'da feat. So do we learn the feat,from the whores with bad feat.
      Many men first watch their first sexual "feats" from pornography

    • @arinleoczko1250
      @arinleoczko1250 2 роки тому +7

      I always thought of it as the fact that our kids are around cursing and other obscene things, but sex is always described in a roundabout way.

    • @larrycrofttt
      @larrycrofttt Рік тому

      personally ive always interpreted it as the way that men objectify women because society has programmed it into their brains with the way theyre raised and what is promoted.
      terracotta pie and banana represents genitalia. potentially its the sexualization of women.
      of course, i might be wrong. your explanation makes a lot of sense as well.

    • @gwgoulinos
      @gwgoulinos Рік тому +2

      I thought the "learn defeat" was because some people like to be stepped on,and dominated,ergo the "defeat" part. Could be wrong though

  • @RebornLeveller
    @RebornLeveller 3 роки тому +3

    I appreciate that you analyzed the lyrics despite seeing a comment claiming that some of their songs have no real meaning. This one definitely has a meaning. As do most-if-not-all all of their other songs - and some have multiple meanings. They may take some musical influence from Mr. Bungle, but lyrically they pretty much always have something to say, even when it's somewhat cryptic, or on the rare occasions when it's 'hidden' behind silliness.

  • @michaelmeis2953
    @michaelmeis2953 2 роки тому +3

    Serj has said that this song was inspired by Dadaism. Which is an art style developed after WW1, that was focused on rejecting logic, reason, and aestheticism of modern capitalist society, instead embracing nonsense, irrationality, and anti-bourgeois protest. Which explains why it sounds like nonsense

  • @amenallahothmani4313
    @amenallahothmani4313 3 роки тому +4

    This song is talking about how small the "Vicinity of Obscenity" is. Men are programmed to have certain views on women. Whether it's finding a dirty magazine on the playground as a kid, or Paris Hilton trying to sell you a sex-burger during a Teletubbies commercial. No matter where you look, obscenity is "in your eye." It's unavoidable and in your face, just like the guitar and vocal styles when they scream, "Banana banana terra cotta..." The food references are symbolizing genitals

    This is my favorite by them. I once cut my bangs at 4 AM in 9th grade to Sugar by them. Saying banana banana banana terracotta terracotta, terracotta pie is a tongue twister, like saying red leather yellow leather to get your tongue fast. It may be one he learned in opera school. I always thought that was what it was because of how fast and how enunciated he sings it.

    I've listened to this song so many times and never realised the true meaning behind it. Can't believe I didn't realise it. Now that I hear the song again, it's actually pretty obvious xD.
    Great reaction! Please keep going down the SOAD rabbit hole :D.

    There is a scientific basis for foot fetishes. The neural pathways in the brain of somatosensory input from the genitalia and the feet are in physically close proximity in our brains, so some neural input mixed with the brain’s functional plasticity enables these pleasure sensing connections to become reinforced.
