A system (from Latin systēma, in turn from Greek σύστημα systēma, "whole compounded of several parts or members, system", literary "composition") is a set of interacting or interdependent components forming an integrated whole.
A system is a set of elements (often called 'components' ) and relationships which are different from relationships of the set or its elements to other elements or sets.
Fields that study the general properties of systems include systems theory, cybernetics, dynamical systems, thermodynamics and complex systems. They investigate the abstract properties of systems' matter and organization, looking for concepts and principles that are independent of domain, substance, type, or temporal scale.
Most systems share common characteristics, including:
The term system may also refer to a set of rules that governs structure and/or behavior.
The word system in its meaning here, has a long history which can be traced back to Plato (Philebus), Aristotle (Politics) and Euclid (Elements). It had meant "total", "crowd" or "union" in even more ancient times, as it derives from the verb sunìstemi, uniting, putting together.
System of a Down, also known by the acronym SOAD and often shortened to System, is a rock band from Southern California, formed in 1994. It consists of Serj Tankian (lead vocals, keyboards, rhythm guitar), Daron Malakian (guitar, vocals), Shavo Odadjian (bass, background vocals) and John Dolmayan (drums).
The band achieved commercial success with the release of five studio albums; from which three debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. System of a Down has been nominated for four Grammy Awards, and won the award in 2006 for Best Hard Rock Performance for the song "B.Y.O.B.". The group went on hiatus in August 2006, but reunited in November 2010, embarking on a worldwide tour in 2011.
Serj Tankian, Daron Malakian, and Shavo Odadjian all attended Rose and Alex Pilibos Armenian School while children, although because of their eight-year age difference they did not meet until 1992 while working on separate projects at the same recording studio. They formed a band named Soil with Tankian on vocals and keyboards, Malakian on vocals and guitar, Dave Hakopyan (who later played in The Apex Theory/Mt. Helium) on bass and Domingo "Dingo" Laranio on drums. The band hired Shavo Odadjian (another Rose and Alex Pilibos alumnus) as manager, although he eventually joined Soil as rhythm guitarist. After three years, only one live show, and one jam session recording, Hakopyan and Laranio quit the band, feeling that it was not going anywhere.
Suzanne Ciani (born June 4, 1946) is an Italian American pianist and music composer who found early success with innovative electronic music.
She received classical music training at Wellesley College and obtained her M.A. in music composition in 1970 at University of California, Berkeley where she met and was influenced by the synthesizer designer, Don Buchla. She studied computer generated music with John Chowning and Max Mathews at Stanford's Artificial Intelligence Labs in the early 1970s.
In 1974 she formed her own company, Ciani/Musica, and, using a Buchla Analog Modular Synthesizer, composed scores for television commercials for corporations such as Coca-Cola, Merrill Lynch, AT&T and General Electric. Besides music, her specialty was reproducing sound effects on the synthesizer that recording engineers had found difficult to record properly; the sound of a bottle of Coca-Cola being opened and poured was one of Ciani's most widely recognized works, and was used in a series of radio and television commercials in the late 1970s. Such was the demand for her services that at one point she was doing up to 50 sessions a week. Her sound effects also appeared in video games (the pinball game Xenon featured her voice). Such audio logos as the Coca-Cola pop and pour along with video game sound effects and more appear on the 2012 album Lixiviation (Finders Keepers) along with the only currently availabe excerpts from her 1975 Buchla Concert.

Pay attention are you listening
You're my favorite girl
Excuse me for the moment
I'm in another world
(On a mountain) by a fountain
Flowers blooming everywhere
With venus and cupid, the picture's very clear
Hang the sign upon the door, say
Don't disturb this groove
Just a way to say that
I'm so into you and the feelings so real
So don't disturb this groove
Erotic whispers for the listener
Let the music fill the air
Excuse me for a moment
I'm at a loss for words
By election sheer perfection
And as if these eyes would care
Your heart is in the right place
So don't you go and change
Baby over and over the passion starts again
You're my lollipops and everything
And a little taste of sin
Causing fire and desire
In this mortal soul to live
Till the angels fall from heaven
And the day the earth stands still
Hang a sign upon the door
Say don't disturb this groove
Just a way to say that
I'm so into you and the feeling's so real
So don't disturb this groove
Just a way to tell you that
I'm so into you
Close your eyes and let the music put you in the groove
Lock the door and turn the phone off, it's time for me and you
Oh say can you see, I'm coming to America
Oh say can you see, I'm coming to America
Oh say can you see, I'm coming to America
1st verse:
I took a plane to sunny Spain,
I crossed the desert in a camel train.
To see the sights in gay Paree,

Oh say can you see, I'm coming to America
Oh say can you see, I'm coming to America, (hey)
2nd verse:
I've been to Kenya and walked in Hyde Park,
I seen Copenhagen after dark with my baby.
I met the Pope at the Vatican,
I seen Ghana, Tijuana and the Sea of Japan.
Oh (oh) say can you see, I'm coming to America
Oh say can you see, I'm coming to America
You can travel round the world,
see lots of boys and girls.
Meet different people on the way,
but there's nothing like the USA.
Oh (oh) say can you see, I'm coming to America, (coming
to America)
Oh say can you see, I'm coming to America
(Bridge)
First stop New York City (New York!!!), all the girls

Everyone in the world (oh yeah) is comin' to the
US...A.
Oh say can you see, I'm coming to America

The feelings evolved
I won't let it out
I can't replace
your screaming face
Feeling the sickness inside
Why won't you die?
Your blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine
So many words

This feeling's evolved
so soon to break out
I can't relate
to a happy state
feeling the blood run inside
Why won't you die?
Your blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine
Why is everything so fucking hard for me?
Keep me down to what you think I should be!
Must you tempt me and provoke the ministry?
Keep on trying I’m not done so easily
I will not die
Why is everything so fucking hard for me?
Why won't you die?
Your blood is mine
We'll be fine

I gotta have ya here tonight - All I can say is ohhhh! (We bout to take it to em, oh!)
I can't get you out of my system - NOOOOO, don't go away (Let's hit it deep in the heart)
Wait a minute, stop and listen - I-iiiiiiiigh, need to know, baby (Let's really get to the dirt, LOUDER!)
Was the lovin good last night? - Ba-BAAAAY, I gotta I gotta (The real, UH!)
I gotta have ya here tonight - tonight, yeah yeah (Yeah)
[Phonte:]
UH! - She thinks it's all in her jeans
But it ain't her, it's just all in my genes
Lookin at my fam now I see just what it means
Mom don't like kids but Pop like makin 'em
So myself now, I better understand
A nigga don't smoke or don't drink but
Grandma used to said, "You gon' do SOMETHIN to smell like man"
So I try to fight temptation but the shit gets harder
She moves in closer and the dick gets harder
I try to fight the feelin cause she's, so appealin
But these hoes take to me like a fish to water
It's shouldn't be that hard, thought I'd change
But my mind is like, "You ain't came that far"
Huh, it's like Adam walkin out on Eve
Only to see the appletree is fillin his backyard
It feels wrong, but so right
And it's not fair, my dear, but that's life
The life I'm livin
It seem like the devil took a piss in my gene pool
Me? Family man? - Who the fuck am I kiddin?
I look into the eyes of my seeds
Hopin they grow up to be much better than me
I can't keep livin under these sick guidelines
Lord, please help me keep walkin the fine line
Until I can find mine, uh!
[Chorus: Tone Trezure]
I can't get you out of my system - NOOOOO, don't go away
Wait a minute, stop and listen - cause I-iiiiiiiigh, need to know, baby
Was the lovin good last night? - Ba-BAAAAY, I gotta I gotta
I gotta have ya here tonight - tonight, yeah yeah
[Rapper Big Pooh:]
I've been at work all day, boss in the back
Gettin fat, take that, I'm at minimal pay
I'm a sucker to the clock, when I get home
I'm a suck unto the bottle of Patron out the box
Remy on the rocks, gon' try to take me
To go to the "Doctor, " I need "Detox"
No Peace Scnapps, nigga I'm a man
Flip Merriot with the shots, think I'm three down
Since I ain't sure I ordered another round
Pooh an alcoholic, how that sound?
Found peace in the spirits, ma tried to tell me
"Slow down" plenty times, but I just didn't hear it
So I fifth geared it, reared it's ugly head
Man FUCK, I was so misled
How you gon tell the world that it got you scared?
You supposed to be the man, can't bring home bread
Make it 5:15, families don't get fed
Livin check by check, never gettin ahead
That's life, makin it hard to come home
So I'm at the bar where the stool's my throne - it's ON!
[Chorus: Tone Trezure w/ Phonte]
I can't get you out of my system - NOOOOO, don't go away
Wait a minute, stop and listen - cause I-iiiiiiiigh, need to know, baby
Was the lovin good last night? - Ba-BAAAAY, I gotta I gotta
I gotta have ya here tonight - tonight, yeah yeah
You can swear by who the fuck you like
But you're still on the roof
I'm not gonna change the system
They're not gonna change the system
We're not gonna change the system
Where does that leave you? Where does that leave me?
Jumping up and down to a bunch of tools
The organisation treat us like fools
They can't help it, they didn't make the rules
It's just the system again, BOLLOCKS
Bind us round with ignorance
Fit us up with a petty stance
Fill us up with cheap romance
Leave no option, no chance
What've they got? Fuck all? NO
What've they got? A swimming pool?
Where do you get it? Follow the rules
System, system, system
Keeping their fingers on the breaks
Down the ladders, up the snakes
Couldna done any better
Couldna prayed for sin to be over
Praying to nothing, praying to know,
but you will never know
I won't say it, I won't say it
I won't say what I don't know
I never had any problem
to recognize it or a marble
You're a beautiful liar
You're never inspired
You know when it's over it's over
I won't say it, I won't say it
I won't say what I don't know
I won't say it, I say nothing
I know nothing, I do nothing
Nothing
Until when will technological progression continue?
Cars, planes, handyphone and sone where developed
Now the convinient period of web comes!
Shopping, encounter and
Everything under the sun are on it
We can´t obtain much information
About the world without web
Now the crimes using web increase
The development of technology
Is propotional to the increase of the crimes
It´s unchangeable at every age
That crime shall never vanish
Thought of degenerated person
Humankind toward a downfall
Now the crimes using web increase
The development of technology
Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darlin'
That it won't be long before it's crying time
Now they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder
And that tears are only rain to make love grow
Well, my love for you could never grow cold no stronger
If I lived to be a hundred years old, yeah now
Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darlin'
That it won't be long before it's crying time
Now you say you've found someone that you love better
Well, that's the way it's happened every time before
And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow
Crying time will start when you walk out the door, hey now
Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darlin'
Pay attention, are you listening? You're my favorite girl
Excuse me for the moment, I'm in another world
On a mountain, by a fountain, flowers blooming everywhere
With Venus and cupid, the picture's very clear
Hang the sign upon the door, say, 'Don't disturb this groove'
Just a way to say that, I'm so into you
And the feelings so real, so don't disturb this groove
Erotic whispers for the listener, let the music fill the air
Excuse me for a moment, I'm at a loss for words
By election sheer perfection and as if these eyes would care
Your heart is in the right place, so don't you go and change
Baby over and over the passion starts again
You're my lollipops and everything and a little taste of sin
Causing fire and desire in this mortal soul to live
Till the angels fall from heaven and the day the earth stands still
Hang a sign upon the door, say, 'Don't disturb this groove'
Just a way to say that I'm so into you
And the feeling's so real, so don't disturb this groove
Just a way to tell you that I'm so into you
Close your eyes and let the music put you in the groove
Lock the door and turn the phone off, it's time for me and you
I can't wait cause we've got a date
Tonight we're making a scene
She's an uptown girl, I'm a downtown boy
With plenty of dreams (plenty of dreams)
Her friends all say she's made a mistake
She tells them I'll take my chances
She's knows that I can't dance
But I can surely sing a song of romance
Some people need a world of, of gold and pearls
My wealth is all in passion
And maybe to some girls these clothes I wear
Just maybe out of fashion
No I'm not debonaire like fred astaire
But my baby don't care
She says just come as you are baby
Just come as you are baby
You're my superstar
Made just for these arms
I want you just the way you are
It's just my fate to have expensive tastes
And not a penny to spare
I just don't know why she wants me
Cause she's much more than my share
She says take a look inside
And you'll realize a book's more than the cover
And so the saying goes, you never know
Just what you will discover
What pages you will turn until you learn love is all that matters
Just come as you are baby
You're my superstar
Made just for these arms
I want you just the way you are
Just come as you are baby
You're my superstar
Made just for these arms
I want you just the way you are
Ahhhh baba
Some people need a world of, of gold and pearls
My wealth is all in passion
And maybe to some girls these clothes I wear
Just maybe out of fashion
No I'm not debonaire like fred astaire
But my baby don't care
Just come as you are baby
You're my superstar
Made just for these arms
I want you just the way you are
Just come as you are baby
You're my superstar
Made just for these arms
I cannot frame, that's why I lose control
I aim, I stumble and I fall
Our adaptation can't be faithful
Your world does not attract me
This is the end, you see
There's no more truth in me
As if you would deserve it
You are my enemy
I can't ignore the way you make me bleed
I hate when you throw my thoughts against the wall
Got to wake up and make a stand
The desperation forces another mistake
I count again, I know who to blame
My life in vain, who said I was sane?
I count again, I know who to blame
My life in vain, who said I was sane?
Follow your instinct, it usually takes you home
Don't let these words tear you down, down
You see me hanging by the end of the rope
I tell you
Slow, I go and the wait seems to be over
All that I know is that my life
Has become such a waste for you
I blame and run, sadly all too often
I dive into the day without your sympathy
I tend to try but lack the focus
Becoming a distant memory
What once was, is quickly forgotten
All wrapped up inside
Delete all resemblance
I feel your relief
Slow, I go and the wait seems to be over
All that I know is that my life
Has become such a waste for you
Follow your instinct, it usually takes you home
Slow, I go and the wait seems to be over
All that I know is that my life
Has become such a waste for you
Slow, I go and the wait seems to be over
All that I know is that my life
I am...the way
I'm free to claim my land
And you'll bow at my command
With blood I shall control
Now I am free to rape your very soul
Your hate is all you show
So your hate has made me grow
No hope for any man
I'll take your lies and crush them in my hands
So turn away from what you see
You gave me life I am machine
I'll take you over to the darkest side
I'll send you up to genocide
Through time I've waited long
I've watched your petty wars for much too long
Machine is what I am
Now watch me spread my chaos through the land
Don't turn away from what you see
You gave me life I am machine
I'll take you over to the darkest side
I'll send you up to genocide
...You know not what you are
I am machine
Religion has a ? on a blood-stained land
Genetic engineers try to save me in their plan
Two thousand years, shed a million tears
You've had your say, now it's my day
I am the way
I am the system
I am the way
I am the system
I am the way
I am the system
And I...will destroy
And I...will destroy
And I...will destroy
And I...will destroy

Two nights ago I had a dream
The radio was on and the T.V
I was hungry, I couldn't sleep
So I went down to the kitchen to find something to eat
So I opened up the door of my G.E
I didn't have no groceries
So I headed down to the corner store
Cause I had the bills for a few bites more
There were people dancin' in the stret
Moving to the funky beat just groovin'
They were dancin' to the rhythm of the back beat
So I lost my head and followed the crowd
To a doorway where the music was loud
And inside they were dancin' and singin' and
I heard them shouting
Hey, this is the house of rhythm, welcome everybody
Yeah, this is the house of rhythm, we come here to party
The girls were fly and the D.J was rough
He was playin' wild and furious
Scratchin', rappin', cuttin' it up
Yo! this homeboy was serious
I'm the love machine, I never lose thwe crowd
Said all you other D.J's just don't know how to do it like Mr. Nice
I'm like Kentucky fried chicken, I di it right
There were people dancin' in the street
Movin' to a funky beat just groovin'
They were dancin' the rhythm of the back beat
Well, I lost my head started to shout
In my p.j I was turnin' it out
And no one stopped to stare
Cause it doesn't even matter what clothes you're wearin'
Hey, this is the house of rhythm, welcome everybody
Hey this is the house of rhythm, we like to party
Live tonight
The house will rock
Live tonight
Feel it in the dark, I feel it in the light
Up in central park downtown late at night
It's the rhythm in your soul that takes away control
It's the magic in the air when you find someone tor eally care
Can you feel it, it's the
Heartbeat of the city in the heart of you
Heartbeat of the city deep inside of you
It's back beat in the heart of you
With the heartbeat of the city you'll come shinning through
Happiness is free, no smoke to get me high
Just the music of the streets and city lights intoxicate my mind
And the vision comes to life, it happens every time
Of my baby and me dancin' free in the key of city life
Can you hear it, it's the
Heartbeat of the city in the heart of you
Heartbeat of the city deep inside of you
On back street in theheart of you
With the heartbeat of the city you'll come shinning through
Feel it in the dark and feel it in the light
From the windows of the world watching back street of your life
It's the beat when you're alone with no one there to hold
That keeps burnin' in your soul and never leaves you could
Heartbeat of the city in the heart of you
Heartbeat of the city deep inside of you
It's back beat in the heart of you
(chorus)
You in my system
In my blood in my veins
In my system
You're my joy you're my pain
There's no use in
Trying to hide from me
Ain't no stopping me now
I'm gonna fly so free
(bridge 1)
The shadows on the wall
They disappear
I'm thinking of you now
I want you here
(chorus)
What's the use in
Trying to run away
I can't stop thinking about you
Everyday
(bridge 2)
I listen to the pain
Still falling down
I wanna be with you
You're not around
(chorus)
(bridge 1)
(chorus x 3)
Someday, evermore
Someday, evermore
Someday, evermore
Someday, evermore
Son, you'd better go for it
Harmony, dissatisfaction
And a pocket full of lies
'Cause I guess that's what they want
Son, your father's known for his misery
Can you read my lips?
'Cause this is my way of breaking ties
Is it true that's what you want?
We know this color coding can't be right
When the only truth is we don't sleep at night
Can it feel real?
We're just trying to beat the system
But it's hard from a distance
We keep falling from the system
So it's time for a new better way
We're just trying to beat the system
And it's time for a new better way
Lie, now the people need to get high
Everybody needs a little sunshine from a blurry sky
'Cause that's just what they want
We know this color coding can't be right
When the only truth is we don't sleep at night
Can it feel real?
We're just trying to beat the system
But it's hard from a distance
We keep falling from the system
So it's time for a new better way
We're just trying to beat the system
But it's hard from a distance
We keep falling from the system
So it's time for a new better way
We're just trying to beat the system
But it's hard from a distance
We keep falling from the system
So it's time for a new better way
Better way, better way, better way
Someday, evermore
Someday, evermore
Someday, evermore
Someday, evermore

Come rain or sunshine from distant storm clouds
A pink umbrella for your purple passion flower
And in these blue hours just when the moon falls down
I'll be your soul power beneath the satin armour
My heart is red tonight back in my cadillac
Weak is resistance I want your lov back
Cause satifaction's joy and
I can give you more (you hear me prayin')
Hear what I'm sayin (hear me prayin')
I wanna be a soul boy for you
I wanna make all your dreams come true
I wanna be a soul boy for you
Too many people stopping for red lights
Going for green lights, I'm in between lights
I wanna ne more than just a freind tonight
Let's make some cherry love under a black light
Or yellow sunshine, oh wouldn't that be nice
Yes, taking our time, I wanna do things right
Soul mate heart
Your game from the start
Hear me prayin'
I wanna be a soul boy for you
I wanna make all your dreams come true
I wanna be soul boy
I wanna be more than just a freind tonight
I wanna be yours for all my life
And in the bluehours just when the moon falls down
The movie's over, baby
You don't seem to hear a word I'm sayin'
We're hypnotized losing control of our lives
We thought we had it made
Yes, we're in dancer, baby, we promised to never be tamed
But words are spoken so often in vain
And silence causes pain
So baby, save me, I've fallen in too deep
Oh baby, save me pray tonight my soul to keep
Save, save me
Let's think this over, baby
Because I'd hate to see us make a mistake
Always easy to stay every night when you turn off the lights
It's getting deeper now baby
I'm in water up to here with you
This river's rising, tell me when didi it start
To take away this heart
So baby, save me, I've fallen in this too deep
Oh baby, save me, pray tonight my soul to keep
Save, save me
I got caught n a wave about to beswept away
Save me
Cause I'm feeling no pain, It's making it so hard to say
Save me, I've fallen in this too deep
Strangers in the dark
We kiss and we touch
The little things can mean so much
Smoke is in our eyes
Let's finish the wine
It's time to kiss and say good-bye
Oh, oh, I wonder where you go
When the darkness fades and the tracesshow
Oh, oh I wonder if she knows
That all my days are filled with dreams of my
Nighttime lover, over and over
I dream of us dancin' in the dark, me and my
Nighttime lover, love undercover
W'ere lost in this love is where we are
This heart is not so smart
It knew from the start
This tenderness would cause a fire
Love is always blind
The truth isn't always kind
We ask no questions, tell no lies
Oh, oh I wonder where you go
When the party's over, will I know
Oh, oh I wonder if she knows
That I could spend my life being her
Nighttime lover, she's like no other
Nighttime lover, over and over
I dream of us dancin' in the dark
Me and my nighttime lover, she's like no other
We're lost in this love is where we are
Me and my nighttime (lover) over and over
Dream of us dancing in the dark
Me and my nighttime (lover) lover undercover
Completely done
Too much now I can't touch you
I'd drain my brain if only I could have you
The system is too much
It breaks me down and makes you suck
Fuck, now I mistrust you
The system makes me hurt you
Onetimesonetimesonetimesone
Discretely done
Obviously ow I've become suited, diluted
Free from anything
Yes please, I'd love your love
So I can fuck it up
This system is too much
It breaks me down and makes you suck
Fuck, now I am twisted
This system makes me hurt you
Onetimesonetimesonetimesone
We cut and slice
It makes us feel so very nice
I'm simply demented
Uneasy and dented
I'd drain my brain if only I could have you
This system is too much
It breaks me down and makes you suck
Now I can't trust you
This system makes me hurt you
You fell away,
what more can I say?
The feelings evolved,
I wont let it out,
I can't replace
your screaming face
feeling the sickness inside
Why won't you die?
your blood in mine
we'll be fine
then your body will be mine
So many words,
Can't discribe my face
This feelings evolved
So soon to break out
I can't relate
To a happy state
feeling the blood run inside
Why won't you die
your blood in mine
We'll be fine,
then your body will be mine
Why is everything so fucking hard for me?
keep me down to what you think I should be
Must you tempt me and provoke the ministry
Keep on trying I'm not dying so easily
(I will not die)
Why is everything so fucking hard for me? (I will not die)
Why is everything so fucking hard for me? (I will not die)
Why wont you die?
your blood in mine
we'll be fine
then your body will be mine
Why would you die
your blood in mine
we'll be fine
then your body will be mine
