This intro is also the part which makes up the Verse as well.
This is sometimes muted in sections and chords are sometimes cut off.
James mixes it quite a bit, so you will have to listen to the record to
get it more accurate.

Patrick Bateman is the protagonist in Bret Easton Ellis's Novel ' American Psycho'. If you aren't familiar with the content and themes of the book, it's a satire/fantasy/horror story deconstructing affluent white 80's America. If that sounds like a cliche now remember it wasn't at the time. Nice mention of an earlier Ellis novel 'Less Than Zero' in the third line too :)

Probably my favourite song by MSP. "I cannot be saved as liberals keep telling me" Now that line is better then anything Ellis has ever written :)
