Song: Marilyn Manson Ate My Girlfriend
Artist: Relient K
Tabbed By: Alan the Wise (spfan607@yahoo.com)
NOTE ABOUT SONG: There are two versions of this song. One was on an early demo
type of record and was entitled "Marilyn Manson Ate My Girlfriend". The other
version is on the album "The Anatomy of the Tongue in Cheek" and is entitled just
"My Girlfriend". I havn't listened to both enough to compair the differences, but
this tab was transcribed from the demo one called "Marilyn Manson Ate My Girlfriend"
if by any chance it makes any difference.
Hardly anybody has heard of this band, but oh well. I figure I can
still take the time to tab this song out. It's your basic pop-punk
sounding song (like NFG, Blink182, Sum41 etc) so it's played with a pick
and it isnt even remotely difficult. Just screw with the rhythm and you
will be just fine.
Sweet Dreams Intro

Please realize that if you request a song for me to tab out that the odds of
me tabbing it are not so high, consittering it takes a good deal of time.
But feel free to ask anyway! I'll still try my best.

| Yes, im sure a practicing catholic would call himself the anti-Christ. This is a pimp song! I'm not sure what the exact lyrics are, but the short of it is one of the band member's gf's started listening to crap and it pulled her away from God. Relient K rocks my socks. The ones with poodles. | |

| really this song is just called "My Girlfriend" b/c "Marilyn Manson Ate My Girlfriend" goes like this:: "Walk through the streets of PA and you may see her. Go up to her and say you're a believer. Disgusting crap on MTV it makes her smile. That guy from Satan's embassy put him on trial. Because...Marilyn Manson ate my girlfriend. Satan consumed her mind, and he may do it again. Marilyn Manson ate my girlfriend. She once believed in the truth, now she believes in sin. She denies God when she has the chance to live for Him. The thought oh it makes me cringe. Her future looks dim. She'd rather gaze in Satan's eyes than on a steeple. I'm really starting to despise beautiful people. Marilyn Manson he's a dork, he ate my girlfriend with a knife and fork. Marilyn Manson he's uncool. Marilyn Manson went to a Canton school. Marilyn Manson ate my girlfriend." pretty much the same just a little diff. | |

| Hi. First of, I thought the lyrics said he went to medical school, but then again, I'm retarded. SECOND, THE MESSAGE IS ABOUT MATT (OR WHOEVER'S) GIRLFRIEND, WHO USED TO FOLLOW THE LORD, THEN SHE STARTED WATCHING MTV OR WHATEVER AND GOT INFLUENCED BY MARILYN MANSON AND NOW SHE'S NOT WITH THE LORD. IT SHOWS THAT PEOPLE WHO SAY THEY ARE CHRISTIANS WHO LISTEN TO THIS TYPE OF DEGRADING MUSIC, THAT EVEN THOUGH THEY SAY IT HAS NO INFLUENCE, IT DOES. ANYHOO... ABOUT THE MANSON DUDE AND HIS "CATHOLIC" PRACTICES... IT'S NOT ABOUT RELIGION, IT'S ALL ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIP YOU HAVE WITH GOD AND HOW YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE. PEACE OUT YO. -http://www.noose.faithweb.com http://www.stillbreathingonline.com | |

| Actually to defend Manson He is not a satanist. He is just a very strong and vocal Athiest. An athiest denies the existence of both Satan and God. Yes he does take people away from the church. People have the right to choose to belive in God or not. Oh and MTV does not really support Manson. Most MTV is just supporting rap. | |

| First off, I agree with emoBettyrocket...I don't think that a practicing Catholic would call himself the antichrist. But hey, that's me... Second, if any of you think that the music you listen to doesn't influence your behaviors and life in general, you are sadly mistaken. | |

| this has to be one of my favorites by Relient K, especially when you start singing it on the bus.....the funny looks you get from people are great......especially the line "marilyn manson he's a dork ate my girlfriend with a knife and fork" people have a hard time believing that its christian rock | |

| BigWillyStyle- I am very impressed with your choice of vocabulary. More than that, I am impressed with how close minded you can come off. Read the lyrics and try and see what the guys are really trying to communicate with its listeners. I know Relient K can come off kinda silly, but I think they are trying to say that music can have a dark effect on people. One more thing and this is just a shot in the dark, but chances are, you just used those big words of yours to try and stir up a little controversy on this posting. | |

| To be honest, I'm disgusted by this song. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but when a band that claims to be Christian starts attacking other musicians for being different from them, it's not true Christianity. It's just an example of modern "believers" thinking they're better than everyone else. | |
