Peter's pecker picked another
Pickle bearing pussy pepper,
Peter's pecker picked another
Pickle bearing pussy pepper, Why.

Meeting John at Dale's Jr.
Winked an eye and point a finger,
Meeting John at Dale's Jr.
Winked an eye and point a finger, Why.

A former cop, undercover,
Just got shot, now recovered,

Just got shot, now recovered, Why.

Fighting crime, with a partner,

Overall Meaning

"I-E-A-I-A-I-O" by System of a Down is a song featuring whimsical and nonsensical lyrics. It is one of the band's most playful tracks, with an upbeat tempo and an easily repeatable chorus. The song is a curious excursion into the absurd world of the band's imagination. The lyrics are organized around a few distinct themes, although they are not necessarily intended to be coherent or have any specific meaning beyond their playful and odd nature.


Firstly, the song involves a lot of repetition, with lines being repeated multiple times, including the chorus. The chorus, made up of the letters I, E, A, and O, is a refrain that builds throughout the song. The verse sections, meanwhile, focus on a strange array of images and characters, starting with Peter and his penchant for picking pickle-bearing pussy peppers. Then, there is a strange encounter at Dale's Jr. involving a winking and pointing gesture. Another verse highlights a former cop who got shot but recovered and is now fighting crime with partners Lois Lane and Jimmy Carter.


Overall, "I-E-A-I-A-I-O" by System of a Down plays heavily on quirky and humorous lyrics, making the listener question the meaning behind the words, and it captivates them with the upbeat sound that supports the lyrics. The song is one of the better examples of the band's signature style and off-kilter humor, and it does not disappoint.

Que tristeza mientras hay muchas personas que no tienen nada que comer hay otras que desprecian la comida ...debería de ayudar a los que no tienen nada que comer y no malgastar la comida....ojalá nunca tengas que mendigar algo para comer ...ya que el mundo da muchas vueltas..
