It's like a stranger had a key, came inside of my mind
And moved all my things around
He didn't know snakes can hear the prey
Can't try to break the psyche down

Yeah

It's in my half frozen wax
And your artillery lead
Do you like our bed
Do you like our bed

It's like a stranger had a key, came inside of my mind
And moved all my things around
He didn't know snakes can hear the prey
Can't try to break my psyche down

It's in my half frozen wax
And your artillery lead
Do ya like our bed
Do ya like our bed

It's in my half-frozen wax
And your artillery lead
Do you like our bed
Do you like our bed

You'd better watch yourself
Wanna know what Zeus said to Narcissus
You'd better watch yourself
You'd better watch yourself better watch yourself

Marilyn Manson

Brian Hugh Warner (born January 5, 1969), better known by his stage name Marilyn Manson, is an American rock musician and former music journalist known for his controversial stage persona and image as the lead singer of the eponymous band Marilyn Manson. His stage name was formed from juxtaposing the names of two American cultural icons, namely actress Marilyn Monroe and multiple murder convict Charles Manson as a critical and, simultaneously, laudatory appraisal of America and its peculiar culture. The seemingly outrageous visual and vocal styles he employs, his unique interpretations of familiar songs and the controversy surrounding his lyrics and imagery have led to his very pronounced public appeal. more »
