"'''Dope Hat'''" is the third and final single and the sixth track of the first album ''[[Portrait of an American Family]]''. The earliest recording of this song dates back to the band's ''[[The Family Jams]]'' cassette, released in 1992. While [[Madonna Wayne Gacy]] was given a music credit for the song on ''Portrait of an American Family'', curiously his name is absent from the credits of ''The Family Jams'' and ''[[Refrigerator]]'', two cassettes a demo of "Dope Hat" had appeared on beforehand.

The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mq1sHDwpgqo music video], directed by Tom Stern, features the band riding a boat through a psychedelic tunnel directly inspired by the 1971 film ''Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory'', which happens to be one of Manson's favorite films. In the video, the band members perform with many children and people resembling the "Oompa-Loompas" from ''Willy Wonka'' aboard the boat.
