/ System of a Down / I think this song is about the U.S. being the dominating
/ Cigaro / superpower. It is about how they are being the regulators
/ Mezmerize / of every country in the world by bombing and destroying every
/___________________/ country that does not recline to their demands and that might
consist of even a slight threat. For instance when they threatened
Iran if they did not terminate their construction of the nuclear power plant, as it
would probably be used for producing nuclear bombs, which, as far as I remember,
the U.S. ironically has enough of to destroy every inch of the planet.

My cock is much bigger than yours
My cock can walk right through the door
With a feeling so pure
It's got you screaming for more
Cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
Cigaro, Cigaro, Cigaro
Cool, in denial
We're the cruel regulators smoking
Cigaro, Cigaro, Cigaro
My shit stinks much better than yours
My stinks right down through the floor
With a feeling so pure
It's got you coming back for more
Can't you see that I love my cock?
Can't you see that you love my cock?
Can't you see that we love my cock?
We're the regulators that de-regulate
We're the animators that de-animate
We're the propagators of all genocides
Burning through the world's resources
Then we turn and hide
