Cover art for My Monkey lyrics by Marilyn Manson

Charles Manson did write some of the lyrics. He wrote "I had a little monkey, I sent him to the country and I fed him on gingerbread. Along came a choo-choo and knocked my monkey coo-coo and now my monkey's dead." For the record, Charles Manson never really killed anyone, he was just a very highly intelligent person who persuaded people to kill people such as Sharon Tate.
