Thats a neat sound at the start of “Prison Sex.” How can I do that?
To get the sound like that for the intro to Prison Sex–if you have or know anyone who has a guitar–the sound can almost be reproduced. First off, you need to tune down the guitar to B, then hold down the tremolo bar so that the string is loose. If you strike it, it should sound like its just flopping there. The next thing you need to do is run your pick over the string to get that scratching sound (you should still be holding the tremolo down). Finally, hit the string one final time and slowly release the tremolo bar (if you do it right, it should sound like it is speeding up). A delay pedal may help as well.

But when “Prison Sex” was on the radio, he said…Yes, the edited version has him saying “blood on my hands”, not “shit, blood and cum on my hands.
