This is way cool. For those people who can't see past the surface of anything, this song is about marilyn mansons addiction to drugs. ha but really. it's a bash on people who are "raised to be stupid, and taught to be nothing at all" everone who is just "normal" has a norm life (baby).
"we're white and oh so hetro. our sex is missionary" any normal white person is DEFINATLY straight. ask him and he'll deny sort of homosexualism that may run through him. and any sort of sodomy is unheard of to him. missionary only. ha "we're quitters and we're sober." we HAVE to stop smoking. stop using drugs. we HAVE to be sober. Then, when we are, we can go on tv and talk about it.

I think that the part "you and I are underdosed and we're ready to fall" is about manson himself. and whoever the 'you' is to. (probably fans, lovers, anyone who doesn't have a norm life) we're not high enough. we're being pulled into sobriety by all the stupid, nothing, normal people. The coolest thing about mansons lyrics (in my opinion) is how well he can use drugs as metaphors. this song pretty much has nothing to do with drugs. it's more about people. but, he uses drugs as a cover up so it shocks those normal people into what they think now ("manson is a bad person who only preaches drugs, sex, violence and suicide") the moral of this song; don't strive to be normal. raise yourself to be smarter, if you're only being raised to be stupid. and teach yourself to be something, if society and teachers only tell us we're going to be nothing.

that's just what i take from the song.
