I like all three of these bands and if the people wana blame sombody they can blame the fucking preps of the world who bully kids around to the point were they do kill.

| Well, this song deals with what Manson calls the "three Gs" of Conservative Christian Middle America: Guns, God and Government, or rather, America's obsession with firearms, Christianity and patriotism. But that's just part of it. | |

| Many of these defintions are accurate, as Manson's songs have many meanings, but this is the one I choose the most: Quote: Got a crush on a pretty pistolShould I tell her that I feel this way?The Father taught us to be faithful From what I understand, the person has a sexual attraction to another person who is not his partner, but deeper analysis could indicate that the person is attracted to the superficiality of society, drawn in by it's oppulence. Quote: Got a crush on a pretty pistolShould I tell her that feel this way?I got Love Songs in my head killing us away... His emotional state is very depressed, and he wants so badly to succed and become famous but he knows he must be realistic, but cannot let go of the fame he wants, he keeps his feelings to himself, and is overwhelmed by emotion, leading to thoughts of suicide. Quote: She tells me I'm a pretty bulletGonna be a star somedayMother says that we should look away This now focuses on the superficiality of society - the media promises fame and wealth, the mother, who is wise, like most mothers' are, tells the person t take no notice, as she knows that the world is full of corruption and evil, etc, and wants to protect her child Quote: She tells me I'm a pretty bulletAn imitation Christgot love songs in my head killing us away The institution fills the persons head with hopes and dreams, but they can never be realised, since the hopes and dreams are forged from the lies the institution says, to attract the person. The feeling of being rejected by the promises that were broken, 'cos they were based on lies, give the element of suicde as a result of failure. Quote: Do you love your guns? (yeah!)God? (yeah!)The government (**** yeah!) Sarasm here - does he love the government he lives in - No (sacastic 'yeah') God? - No '' '' guns?- No '' '' | |
