Sugar

Sugar is a song by the American alternative metal band System of a Down. The song's music video makes reference to the Kosovo war and features graphic imagery, which led to the video receiving little airplay, with the video usually being restricted to late night time-slots on music television channels. It is currently the most played System of a Down song live and is usually played at the end of concerts. The song was covered by Machine Head in 2002.

Let your mother pray Sugar, sugar [Verse 1: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian] I'm not there all the time, you know Some people, some people, some people call it insane Yeah, they call it insane (Sugar) I play Russian Roulette every day, a man's sport With the bullet called life Yeah, mama called life (Sugar) Yeah and every time I try to go where I really want to be It's already where I am 'Cause I'm already there [Chorus: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian] The Kombucha mushroom people, sitting around all day Who could believe you?

Let your mother pray Sugar [Verse 2: Serj Tankian & Daron Malakian] I got a gun the other day from Sako It's cute, it's small, fits right in my pocket Yeah, right in my pocket (Sugar) My girl, you know, she lashes out at me sometimes And I just fucking kick her And then, ooh baby, she's okay (Sugar) People are always chasing me down Tryna push my face to the ground Where all they do is suck out my motherfucking brains My brains (Sugar) [Chorus: Serj Tankian] The Kombucha mushroom people, sitting around all day Who can believe you?
