"B.Y.O.B." (Bring Your Own Bombs) is the first single to be released from System of a Down's fourth album Mezmerize. Its title is a play on the phrase "Bring Your Own Booze" or "Bring Your Own Beer". It is a politically charged song and was written to protest the Iraq War. The track was the band's only Top 30 hit off of Mezmerize, and overall, is the band's sole Top 40 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. The lyrics were written by Casey Chaos and Daron Malakian while working on a side project called Scars On Broadway. It is considered today to be System Of A Down's signature song.

The line (written by Casey Chaos of Amen/Scum/Damned Damned Damned) "Why do they always send the poor?" echoes a similar line in Black Sabbath's 1970 anti-Vietnam War song "War Pigs" on the album Paranoid, as well as Public Enemy's 1988 song "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos". Similar insight has been posed by filmmaker Michael Moore in his documentary Fahrenheit 9/11 about a significant number of soldiers serving in the Iraq War hailing from poor backgrounds.
 
This video was directed by Jake Nava.

The music video shows an army of drone soldiers marching through the streets, wearing masks that show 'DIE' and 'GOD' like a television screen, with the members of System of a Down playing in the middle. The scenes of the soldiers marching is an almost reenactment of the Nazi's marching formation. During the chorus, the band is shown playing inside a night club. Midway through the video, Daron is shown screaming the words "Blast off! It's party time! And we don't live in a fascist nation! Blast off! It's party time! And where the **** are you?!", when the soldiers attack the night club and force everyone to put on the drone masks (paintball masks) that the soldiers have been wearing, except they depict various television shows and cartoons. At the end of the video, the members of System of a Down are wearing the drone masks, which seem to be playing static.
