[Intro]
I am the god of fuck
I am the god of fuck
Go on and smile, you cunt

[Verse 1]
Virgins sold in quantity, herded by heredity
Red-neck-burn-out-mid-west-mind
"Who said date rape isn't kind?"
Porno-nation, evaluation
What's this, "time for segregation"
Libido, libido fascination
Too much oral defecation

[Chorus]
White trash, get down on your knees
Time for cake and sodomy
White trash, get down on your knees
Time for cake and sodomy
Time for cake and sodomy
Time for cake and sodomy

[Interlude]
I am the god of fuck
I am the god of fuck

[Verse 2]
VCRs and vaseline
TV-fucked by plastic queens
Cash in hand and dick on screen
Who said god was ever clean?
Bible-belt 'round anglo-waste
Putting sinners in their place
Yeah right, great, if you're so good
Explain the shit stains on your face

[Chorus]
White trash, get down on your knees
Time for cake and sodomy
White trash, get down on your knees
Time for cake and sodomy
Time for cake and sodomy
Time for cake and sodomy

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
