God Told Me to Skin You Alive

God Told Me to Skin You Alive

"God Told Me to Skin You Alive" is a work of art by Winston Smith. It was used as the cover for Green Day's fourth album, "Insomniac". The dentist in the upper right corner also appears in the inside cover of Dead Kennedys' "Plastic Surgery Disasters". The image features some subliminal messages, including 3 fairies, a nude woman, 3 skulls, and other ghostly images set in the flames in the background.

It shares its title with a lyric from the Dead Kennedys song "I Kill Children".

Green Day's version of the arrangement slightly differs from the original, with the woman holding Billie Joe Armstrong's original blue Stratocaster instead of an acoustic guitar.
