SAY10 Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Devil's got a cut, like a slit in a cattles calf
Dollar-sign snakes, I'm all in the damn
God-less, fearless of the flood
Or the blood of the coming Spring
Something is shedding its scales
Crying from the heat of the light
Or the empty shell on the stage
"And cash is the poor man's money"
"And cash is the poor man's money"
[Chorus]
So you say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
[Verse 2]
Open your mouth, love
Like a gutted church
My goat horns are napalm trees
And a crown of thorns is hard to swallow
You should pray, now
Is it above or is it below?
You should pray, now
Is it above or is it below?
[Chorus]
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
You say "GOD", I say "SAY10"
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
[Bridge]
Cocaine and Abel, I don't baptize whores
I'm a legend, I'm not a fable
Cocaine and Abel, I don't baptize whores
I'm a legend, I'm not a fable
Cocaine and Abel, I don't baptize whores
I'm a legend, I'm not a fable
Oh, you should pray, now
Is it above or is it below?
Oh, you should pray, now
Is it above or is it below?
[Chorus]
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
You say "GOD", I say "SAY10"
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
SAY, SAY, SAY10
SAY, SAY, SAY10
Devil's got a cut, like a slit in a cattles calf
Dollar-sign snakes, I'm all in the damn
God-less, fearless of the flood
Or the blood of the coming Spring
Crying from the heat of the light
Or the empty shell on the stage
"And cash is the poor man's money"
"And cash is the poor man's money"
So you say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
Open your mouth, love
Like a gutted church
My goat horns are napalm trees
And a crown of thorns is hard to swallow
Is it above or is it below?
You should pray, now
Is it above or is it below?
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
Cocaine and Abel, I don't baptize whores
I'm a legend, I'm not a fable
Cocaine and Abel, I don't baptize whores
I'm a legend, I'm not a fable
Cocaine and Abel, I don't baptize whores
I'm a legend, I'm not a fable
Is it above or is it below?
Oh, you should pray, now
Is it above or is it below?
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
You say "GOD" and I say "SAY10"
SAY, SAY, SAY10
SAY, SAY, SAY10

The song has a million and five metaphors that lead me to believe this song is a retelling of the story of Cain and Abel.
I think this song is about how Manson isn\'t necessarily evil and satanic or whatever, but just has a more complicated and well-constructed sense of spirituality and religion.\nIn catholicism, the Hail Mary prayer is repeated ten times. I think Manson is referencing this prayer by saying "Say10", as in "you say \'God\'", but I just say Say10, as in say the prayer to Mary tenfold. This denotes the concept of one praying to a psychological entity of pureness, which is what Mary is, rather than a God, the creator of everything. Mary is also imperfect, so Manson is recognizing that he is tenfold calling on the best a person could be, even if they are still flawed.\nMeanwhile, losers that don\'t like him just hear "Satan", and so they misconstrue his message.
Pretty sure it's "Gash is a poor man's money" Like vagina.
It also can be about capitalism and money. Money can be god if you want it and if you have it (a life like in heaven), but it also can be the devil. It let you do evil things on the way to get rich, and it can also destroy everything if you have it... but I think that this interpretation would be too easy.
It's about someone Marilyn Manson knows (most likely a girl whoes in love with him) that believes in god but he believes in Satan wich she is fine with , and his tell her to choose a side when he says (is it above or is it below) most like to me choose god or Satan...
