Wait... What songs other than Sugar mention mushroom men?
And besides Prison Song, do any others rant about prisons?
I think the point is the mix of weird, nonsensical lyrics with intense, serious political points lol
Well they are a political band. All their songs are heavy on the lyrical end.
In a single song, though? I was thinking more how nearly every album I have from them, it's like 10 political tracks, and 1 that's just batshit random that was made either because they just needed 1 more song to fulfil their contract, or they just had some fun. lol
If there actually is a single song like that, I'd love to hear it; I haven't listened to everything they have put out so I am genuinely curious about that.
Rick Rubin claims credit for this. Says when Serge Tankian was having trouble finishing the lyrics for Chop Suey, Rubin told him to pull a random book off the shelf and open it to a random page and use whatever was there (this is supposedly where the "Father into your hands I commend my spirit ..." bit came from).
And they either one, the other, or both.
Nonsensical? I thought it was about drugs and activism.
Many of their songs are about oppression, genocide, corporate autocracy, technocrats, war, and other important political issues.
I didn't remember the mushroom people reference until I started singing the song in my head, and then lol
I think that's what makes this low effort, they just smashed two of the mainstream weird songs together lol
