[Verse 1]
You've got your Hell's teeth smiling at you
It keeps your brain safe, as it all eats at your face
And don't worry, we'll 'blur it'
And no one ever will know

[Chorus]
This is my beautiful show
And everything is shot in slow-motion
This is my beautiful show
And everything is shot in slow-motion

[Verse 2]
Pump in the laughter of dead-audience applause
And teenage rape candidates
I think we got ourselves a 'real hit'
Don't we wish that we could feel something more than hate and morbid panic?
Morbid panic
Hate and morbid panic?

[Chorus]
This is my beautiful show
And everything is shot in slow-motion
This is my beautiful show
And everything is shot in slow-motion

[Verse 3]
And I'm the host with Vaseline
I hide behind bulletproof glass
And I can feel your tits with my brand new camera
Equipped with a flash
Fast-food-nude, I hate you all
But somehow you find me
Incredibly charming
Incredibly charming
Incredibly charming

[Outro]
Slo-mo-tion
Incredibly charming
Slo-mo-tion
Incredibly charming
This is my beautiful show
And everything is shot in slow-motion

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
