[Verse 1]
She's made of hair and bone and little teeth
Things that cannot speak
She comes on like a crippled plaything
Spine is just a string
I wrapped our love in all this foil
Silver tight like spider legs
I never wanted it to ever spoil
But flies will lay their eggs

[Chorus]
Take your hatred out on me
Make your victim my head
You never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquet

[Verse 2]
I wrapped our love in all this foil
You'll die like spider legs
I never wanted it to ever spoil
But flies will always lay their eggs
She's made of hair and bone and little teeth
Things that cannot speak

[Chorus]
Take your hatred out on me
Make your victim my head
You never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquet

Marilyn Manson

Brian Hugh Warner who is better known under his stage name of Marilyn Manson is a musician, painter, actor, multimedia artist, and former music journalist. His stage name is a combination of the names of two American icons, actress Marilyn Monroe and multiple murder conspiracy convict Charles Manson.

I picked that (Marilyn Manson) as the fakest stage name of all to say that this is what show business is, fake. Marilyn Monroe wasn’t even her real name, Charles Manson isn’t his real name, and now, I’m taking that to be my real name. But what’s real? You can’t find the truth, you just pick the lie you like the best. As long as you know everything’s a lie, you can’t hurt yourself.

—Marylin Manson
