Pretty as a ($) Lyrics
When I see you in the sun you're as pretty as a swastika
Take you down, down from the inside
Take you down, down from the inside
I want to smash into your face, like a plain
And drown in between your legs
Take you down, down from the inside
Take you down, down from the inside
I'd die for your sins
If you don't kill me while I'm trying, baby
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
There's more than one way, to make you cry
When I see you in the sun you're as pretty as a swastika
When I see you in the sun you're as pretty as a swastika
Take you down, down from the inside
Take you down, down from the inside
One of us is a knife
One of us is ripe, baby
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
There's more than one way, to make you cry
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
There's more than one way, to make you cry
Take you down, down from the inside
And drown in between your legs
Take you down, down from the inside
If you don't kill me while I'm trying, baby
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
There's more than one way, to make you cry
When I see you in the sun you're as pretty as a swastika
Take you down, down from the inside
One of us is ripe, baby
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
There's more than one way, to make you cry
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
There's more than one way, to make you cry

i think its all genius metaphores for having sex... aon the other hand it could mean something more political but i know manson... so its probably both meanings at the same time...
First.
Great song. More about someone who would do anything for someone else who may be a particularly ruthless person.
this shits my favourite.
Manson is one weird dude. lol I think that he uses his initial lyrics to kind of freak us out. As in the public. Then he has hidden messages or stories in his lyrics that we can kind of find. lol like Reflecting God is kind of a message of how the human race is helping destroy itself but on the outside, it just seems like he's calling himself God.
marilyn manson said he saw a girl with black hair,red lips,and a pale face and told her she was as pretty as a swastika and it led to sex.

i wouldn't consider that to be weird. i would consider it brilliant. most people don't understand the meaning behind most of his songs. but if they did, and if they actually TRIED to accept the meaning. They'd be suprised that there is actually someone this smart in the world. that's all manson is. one smart guy, trying to get people to open their eyes a little bit and look for a deeper meaning to life.

not a bad song, but the title just seems like a desperate attempt to be 'shocking' for publicity
and armagoddamnmotherfuckingeddon wasn't? lol come on now.

Pretty as a Swastika is about one of his girlfriends or romantic interests, he said it himself and it related to the black hair, pale skin, and red lipstick. I think you can find it in an interview. He also mentions how the record company wouldn't let him put 'swastika' because stores like Wal-Mart refused to sell it so he had to put ($) which he said means the fact that everything is revolved about money and it sickens him. Look it up you'll find it :)
did anybody catch how this song coincides with the first one to create an emotion? devour ends and goes right into this song. with a smash and the heart rate jumps up. ensues. in devour they reject the person who put themself out there. this song reminds me of everytime my ex would refuse to converse with me and slam a door in my face and id spend hours screaming and crying at his door. abusive at best on both parts.
eventually you ust get stabbed. it hurts. let me show you where?
