"I'll join the crowd that wants to see me dead - right now I feel I belong for the first time," remarks Manson dryly. With a solid shot at America's simultaneous adoration and discarding of Our Kids ("Let's hear it for the kids/but nothing they say") the band once again raises the collective banner of Us and You vs. Them - "We are all just scarred and we're hating/ we are all just stars on your burning flag." |
