Food Pyramid (From Clone High)

Marilyn Manson · Other Songs - Marilyn Manson

The ancient pharaohs were not to bright they say
But they made one contribution that I live by to this day
It's the food pyramid and it's approved by the USDA

Oh, grains are the foundation
So please take my advice
Have 5 to 11 servings of bread, cereal or rice
3 to 5 of vegetables and 4 of fruits is best
Their anti-oxidants and fiber help you to digest
3 servings of yogurt, milk and cheese
Will help your bones and subsidize the cattle industries
A body needs to grow
And growing takes proteins
Thats why meat can be a tasty treat like fish or human beings
And when you eat your sweets
Make sure you try
To limit your servings
Or youÂ’ll DIE!

Everybody!
My body is a pyramid thatÂ’s made of healthy food
So do what we say
(yeah!)
Eat right everyday
(boo!)
I love you

Food Pyramid (From Clone High)

Released by Marilyn Manson in 1996, 'Food Pyramid' serves as the thematic centerpiece of his film *Clone High*, a satirical animated take on high school life. The track exemplifies Manson's signature blend of industrial rock, punk energy, and theatrical aggression, utilizing distorted guitars and a driving rhythm to deliver lyrics that critique societal norms and consumer culture. While the song was not included on his major studio albums, it remains a significant piece of his discography, reflecting the artist's continued engagement with provocative social commentary during the mid-to-late 1990s. It stands alongside other works from this era that challenge authority and explore the darker undercurrents of youth culture.
