Manson Quote 17
In the hotel room, the cable system had public-access channels, a
completely new phenomenon to me. I spent hours flipping through the
stations, watching Pat Robertson preach about society's evils and then
ask people to call him with their credit card number. On the adjacent
channel, a guy was greasing up his **** with Vaseline and asking
people to call and give him their credit card number.
I grabbed the hotel notepad and started writing down phrases: "Cash in
hand and **** on screen, who said God was ever clean?" I imagined Pat
Robertson finishing his more-righteous-than-thou patter, then calling
1-900-VASELINE. "Bible-belt 'round Anglo-waste, putting sinners in
their place/Yeah, right, great, if you're so good explain the shit
stains on your face." Thus "Cake and Sodomy" was born.
-- Marilyn Manson; "The Long Hard Road Out of Hell"
