Really?? I can't imagine that Joni would be that "into" Manson.
I always just assumed it was a reference to the whole "God is
Dead" school of thought....
(As an aside - intersting capitalization.... "lord" but "Death
Row." Just an observation, not a critique.)

Not that she was "into" Manson at all; instead, I think she is giving us a
cynical take on the media reports of the time. By the way, according to AP
style, Death Row is capped when you are referring to a particular one. And I
lowercase "lord" because I don't think she was referring to the deity. I
don't remember how it appears in the lyrics on the album.
