MARILYN MANSON
- Posthuman Lyrics / with translationsShe's got eyes like Zapruder
And a mouth like heroin
She wants me to be perfect like Kennedy
This isn't god, this isn't god
God is just a statistic
God is just a statistic
Say "show me the dead stars
All of them sing."
This is a riot
Religious and clean
God is a number you cannot count to
You are posthuman and hardwired
She's pilgrim and pagan
Softworn and so-cial
In all of her dreams
She's a saint like Jackie O
This isn't god, this isn't god
God is just a statistic
[chorus repeat]
[Coma white:]
"All that glitters is cold, all that glitters is cold."
And a mouth like heroin
She wants me to be perfect like Kennedy
This isn't god, this isn't god
God is just a statistic
God is just a statistic
Say "show me the dead stars
All of them sing."
This is a riot
Religious and clean
God is a number you cannot count to
She's pilgrim and pagan
Softworn and so-cial
In all of her dreams
She's a saint like Jackie O
This isn't god, this isn't god
God is just a statistic
[chorus repeat]
[Coma white:]
"All that glitters is cold, all that glitters is cold."

When we think about the meaning behind each verse, the track titled 'Posthuman' by Marilyn Manson looks at God as nothing more than a statistic and goes on to talk about the posthuman and hardwired concepts. The words tell that there is a difference between the glamorous image of people like Jackie O and the cold reality that is actually behind it, thus pointing out the artificiality and emptiness of what shines. Reflective thoughts, social commentary, angst, anger, and spirituality are the major connotations of the Posthuman lyrics. The song, meanwhile, points out the disillusionment with religion, identity, and humanity, and the quest for meaning as the key issues of the time. Biblical and existential concepts, which are generally considered as mature themes, have been used in the lyrics and thus can be seen as inappropriate for kids below 13. Even though there is no strong language or violent content, the abstract themes along with the references to drug use and societal issues are the reasons of the PG-13 rating.
