I'm not the only one to live in chains
It looked so easy when you sold us all the way
I hope my kids like marilyn manson
I'm not the only one to live in pain
It's not the devil come to drive us all insane
I hope my kids like marilyn manson

You're living proof that all the meek will rule
I dream your video's in every public school
Was fun and easy when you sold your soul
No one's accusing you of falling short of your goal
I hope my kids like marilyn manson

In mississippi where your plan unfurled
Within a decade you'll be ruling all the world
I hope my kids like marilyn manson
Was fun and easy when you sold your soul
No one's accusing you of falling short of your goal
I hope my kids like marilyn manson

I'm not complaining having been your tool
But now I've gotten all I want and need from you
All the children like their good clean fun
They know your record's gonna show them how it's done
I hope my kids like marilyn manson…
