Fuck the System Lyrics
I'm, but a little bit-bit-bit, show
But a little bit-bit-bit, shame
But a little bit-bit-bit
Bit! Bit! Bit!
I'm, but a little bit-bit-bit, show
But a little bit-bit-bit, shame
But a little bit-bit-bit
Bit! Bit! Bit!
[Pre-Chorus: Serj Tankian]
I'm just the man in the back
Just the man in the back
Just the man in the back "tchu tcha tcha"!
I'm just demeaning the pack
Just demeaning the pack
Just demeaning the paaaaaaaack!
[Chorus: Serj Tankian]
War! Fuck the system
War! Fuck the system, fuck the system
War! Fuck the system
War! I need to fuck the sys, I need to fuck the sys, I need to fuck the sys
[Verse: Serj Tankian]
I'm, but a little bit-bit-bit, show
But a little bit-bit-bit, shame
But a little bit-bit-bit
Bit! Bit! Bit!
I'm, but a little bit-bit-bit, show
But a little bit-bit-bit, shame
But a little bit-bit-bit
Bit! Bit! Bit!
I'm just the man in the back
Just the man in the back
Just the man in the back "tchu tcha tcha"!
I'm just demeaning the pack
Just demeaning the pack
Just demeaning the paaaaaaaack
[Chorus: Serj Tankian]
War! Fuck the system
War! Fuck the system, fuck the system
War! Fuck the system
War! I need to fuck the sys, I need to fuck the sys, I need to fuck the sys
[Bridge: Serj Tankian]
"Tum tchic-pah!
Tum tchic-pah!
Tum tchic-pah!
Tum tchic-pah!"
You need to fuck the sys
You need to fuck the sys
You need to fuck the sys
You need to fuck the sys
[Verse: Serj Tankian]
I'm, but a little bit-bit-bit, show
But a little bit-bit-bit, shame
But a little bit-bit-bit
Bit! Bit! Bit!
I need to fuck the system
I need to fuck the sys
I need to fuck the system
We all need to fuck the system!
About
If the title of the song wasn’t clue enough; this song is just a big fuck you to the system.
A lot of the band’s personal work goes toward preventing/spreading awareness of war and genocide. The United States (and other governments) have a big history of starting unnecessary conflicts so in SOAD’s eyes – they are part of the system they, and many others, try so hard to prevent. The song is all about taking the initiative and calling out the systems we’ve learned to accept.

System is just the way something happens. In math a system of numbers is a pattern. To follow up the interpretation, FUCK THE SYSTEM is like breaking away from that pattern of numbers. To do things differently from the usual. It’s to break away from the way things are done and lets make our own rules.
