It depicts the band in their new attire, consisting of suits resembling those of Nazi military bandsmen during the Second World War, accompanied by clips of Manson's then-girlfriend [[Dita Von Teese]] and close-ups of Marilyn Manson's face.

| |
| − | Perhaps I should mention
| |
| − | That we have decided
| |
| − | That this, a flip or homicide
| |
| − | Is a little special
| |
| − | A little too macabre for the squeamish
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Therefore we have labelled it
| |
| − | "For juveniles only"
| |
| − | Adults will not be permitted to listen
| |
| − | Unless they are accompanied by their children
