The Fight Song is the second single from Marilyn Manson's fourth studio album Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death). The music video for this song, directed by W.I.Z., shows the band members performing the song at a high school football game between 2 teams: "Holy Wood" and "Death Valley". The game itself is a metaphor for the conflict amongst both (in the album's concept) the rejects living in the Valley of Death and the beautiful people living in Holy Wood (itself a pun on Hollywood) as well as, possibly, the conflict of upper and lower classes, as inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche (see Master-slave morality). A remix appears on the Resident Evil soundtrack. The song uses a quote by "Joseph Stalin", as Manson sings "The death of one is a tragedy / The death of a million is just a statistic".
The video for this song is one of the bonus feature's on the Bowling for Columbine DVD.
