"'''Wrapped in Plastic'''" is the eighth track on the 1994 release ''[[Portrait of an American Family]]''. The earliest recording of this song dates back to the band's ''[[Refrigerator]]'' cassette tape, released in 1993. The song is an overt reference to the TV series ''Twin Peaks''. It recycles lyrics from another Manson song, "[[I.V.-T.V.]]". | "'''Wrapped in Plastic'''" is the eighth track on the 1994 release ''[[Portrait of an American Family]]''.
