[Verse 1: Marilyn Manson]
"Ladies and gentlemen..."
We are the things of shapes to come
Your freedom's not free and dumb, this Depression is Great
The Deformation Age, they know my name
Waltzing to scum and base and married to the pain
[Refrain: Marilyn Manson]
Bang, we want it
Bang, we want it
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
[Pre-Chorus: Marilyn Manson]
You came to see the mobscene
I know it isn't your scene
It's better than a sex scene
And it's so fucking obscene, obscene, yeah
[Chorus: Marilyn Manson]
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
[Post-Chorus: Lily & Pat]
Be obscene! Be, be obscene!
Be obscene, baby! And not heard
[Verse 2: Marilyn Manson]
The day that love opened our eyes, we watched the world end
We have "high" places but we have no friends
They told us sin's not good but we know it's great
War-time full-frontal drugs, sex-tank armor plate
[Refrain: Marilyn Manson]
Bang, we want it
Bang, we want it
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
[Pre-Chorus: Marilyn Manson]
You came to see the mobscene
I know it isn't your scene
It's better than a sex scene
And it's so fucking obscene, obscene, yeah
[Chorus: Marilyn Manson]
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
[Post-Chorus: Lily & Pat]
Be obscene! Be, be obscene!
Be obscene, baby! And not heard
[Bridge: Marilyn Manson]
You came to see the mobscene
I know it isn't your scene
It's better than a sex scene
And it's so fucking obscene, obscene, yeah
[Chorus: Marilyn Manson]
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
[Interlude: Marilyn Manson]
"Ladies and gentlemen, be obscene
Be obscene
Be, be obscene"
[Post-Chorus: Lily & Pat]
Be obscene! Be, be obscene!
Be obscene, baby! And not heard
Be obscene! Be, be obscene!
Be obscene, baby! And not heard
