The line, "Amphetamines for boys, crucifixes for ladies" implies that society is being dumbed-down and controlled by drugs and religion and that rock music is dying from censorship. It's a common theme in Manson's work.

Samuel Bayer directed the video, which shows the band performing the song on a strobe-lit stage, intercut with shots of Manson in various poses. Bayer also did the videos for "Coma White" and "Disposable Teens."
