The Mechanism of Desire is a two minute videoclip uploaded to MarilynManson.com by Marilyn Manson on February 14th, 2003, as an introduction to the The Golden Age of Grotesque era. 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.
The video is accompanied by a soundtrack in which a speech by Alfred Hitchcock (see below) can be heard, followed by the audio of "Baboon Rape Party".

Lyrics
