Disturbed - Stupify (music video)

Description
"Stupify" is Disturbed's first single off their album, The Sickness. When lead singer David Draiman was young, he dated a Latina girl, and her parents never approved of him being of Jewish descent. The song is about racism.[citation needed]

Not many fans know the beginning lines of the song. In the opening David says "Yeah, bringing you another disturbing creation from the mind of one sick animal who can't tell the difference, and gets stupified."[citation needed]

David as well pronounces the word "Tefached" in the song. Tefached means "be afraid" in Hebrew.

The video for the song features the band performing the song in a rusted cellar-like room, interspersed with footage of a young boy sitting in the same room. As the song progresses, the boy is revealed to be haunted by demonlike creatures.

The video makes extensive use of a visual effect commonly called "fast-head", first seen in Jacob's Ladder.

Lyrics
Yeah, bringing you another disturbing creation
from the mind of one sick animal who can't tell the difference
and gets stupified

I've been waiting my whole life for just one
And all I needed was just one
How can you say that you don't give a
I find myself stupified, coming back again
All I wanted was just one
One tiny little innocent
And when I feel like I'm shit out of luck
I find my stupified, coming back again

Why, do you like playing around with
My, narrow scope of reality
I, can feel it all start slipping
I think I'm breaking down

Why, do you like playing around with
My, narrow scope of reality
I, can feel it all start slipping away
See but I don't get it
Don't you think maybe we could put it on credit
Don't you think it can take control when I don't let it
I get stupified
It's all the same you say
Live with it

But I don't get it
Don't you think maybe we could put it on credit
Don't you think it can take control when I don't let it
I get stupified [x2]

All the people in the left wing
And all the people in the right wing
And all the people in the underground
I find myself stupified, coming back again
All the people in the high rise
And all the people in the projects
And all la hente in the bario
I find myself stupified, coming back again

Why, do you like playing around with
My, narrow scope of reality
I, can feel it all start slipping
I think I'm breaking down

Why, do you like playing around with
My, narrow scope of reality
I, can feel it all start slipping away
See but I don't get it
Don't you think maybe we could put it on credit
Don't you think it can take control when I don't let it
I get stupified
It's all the same you say
Live with it

But I don't get it
Don't you think maybe we could put it on credit
Don't you think it can take control when I don't let it
I get stupified [x2]

And don't deny me
No baby now, don't deny me
And darlin' don't be afraid...

But I don't get it
Don't you think maybe we could put it on credit
Don't you think it can take control when I don't let it
I get stupified

Look in my face, stare in my soul
I begin to stupify. Ah! [x4]
Look in my face, stare in my soul [x4]
Look in my face! [x3]
I begin to stupify! Ah!
