System of a Down: Bubbles Meaning

Bubbles Lyrics

Fish that don’t drown
Life in a bubble jungle
I wouldn't frown
Not short another chuckle
Snake in the ground
But I was in there for you
Now leaving town
Life in a bubble jungle

Seeing you believing
Us adhering
The power...

   Saying that we as americans have no power or no arms in a democracy and the bubble jungle is bubble or a place we are trapped in and a jungle is chaos.

   Fish that don’t drown- soldiers hiding underwater
   Life in a bubble jungle-something about the type of life the people in this country live in(most likely a 3rd world country
   
   I wouldn't frown- don't give up hope
   Not short another chuckle-there is nothing funny about the situation
   
   Snake in the ground- most likely a snake hole( snake hole is a small hole in the ground were soldiers can hide and ambush people)
   But I was in there for you- a friendly soldier(a rebel)in the snake hole
   Now leaving town- trying to escape the country
   Life in a bubble jungle
   
   Seeing you believing
   Us adhering
   The power struck- people serving someone who currently has power (probably hoping for some reward(most likely their life)
   
   Believing you then kneeling
   Appeasing
   The power struggle- the person believing their life will be saved
   
   We're left with no arms- the citizens are powerless(arms meaning guns)
   Right in the power struggle- during the time when there is a domestic war for power
   We’re left with no arms
   Right in the power struggle
   
   Wearing a crown- being leader of this country
   Life in a bubble jungle
   Chasing a clown- a rebel being chased by authority
   Not short another chuckle- nothing funny, the rebel realizes hes in constant danger
   Snake in the ground-again the ambush
   But I was waiting for you- the enemy in the hole this time
   Now we have found
   Life in a bubble jungle
   
   May I remind you
   May I remind you
   May I remind you
   
   May I remind you
   May I remind you
   May I remind you
   
   May I remind you
   May I remind you
   May I remind you
   May I remind you
   May I remind you
   May I remind you
   Your life is in a bubble jungle- there's probably some sort of system in this "jungle" jungle also referring to an under developed society
   
   I'm not sure but to me this is what it means
