Goddamn your righteous hand
I eat innocent meat
The housewife I will beat
The prolife I will kill
What you won't do I will
I bash ...

Sorry, but you're wrong. This song came out before columbine even happened. But, the holy wood album is largely related to the incident.

It's about a doctor named David Gunn (hence the extra "N" on Gunn) who was killed by an anti-abortion extremist. Manson saw (as do I) this as very hypocritical for a person who's pro-life to kill someone

No, no, that's true.

In 1993, pro-life extremist Micheal Griffin murdered OB/GYN specialist David Gunn, and Manson saw this to be "the greatest hypocrisy". Because why would someone pro-LIFE actually KILL someone?

When Manson says "The prolife I will kill" He could also be referring to one time there was this Christian anti abortion protester who has been annoying him for some time, So he decided to act like Satan has brought him there to make him leave, He reinforced the point by shooting a fireball from his hand (With the help of a magic kit)

The video for this song seems to be about mental and sexual abuse and someone told me that 'get your gun' is an old slang term for having an orgasm so the extra 'N' was to imply that there is another meaning to this phrase rather than literally meaning "grab a gun"

I Agree With Shallow Jester why does everyone think every manson song is about columbine its not even that intresting a event i think it is thatprolife protester thing now that ive read you guys ones but my personal interpretation of it is my three personalites Good Bad and Normal having a fight the screaming singing part is that good me the confused mixture of singing and talking is normal and the whispering one is evil me thats just my personal interpretation.

Y'know, Kids were angsty and disturbed before columbine... Just because he sings of demented children does not mean he is refrencing columbine.
