"Stupify" is a song by the heavy metal band Disturbed. The song was released on April 12, 2000 as a single from their debut album, The Sickness. It peaked at number-twelve on the United States Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and number-ten on the United States Modern Rock Tracks chart. The song was also used in an English adaptation of the Dragon Ball Z movie Lord Slug, and remixed for the movie Little Nicky as "Stupify (Fu's Forbidden Little Nicky Remix)". Unlike a lot of other Disturbed songs, "Stupify" features synthesizers.
The song is against racism and discrimination. The song is about a relationship Disturbed's vocalist David Draiman was in with a Latina girl. Her family didn't approve of him because of his different ethnicity.
The video for the song features the band performing the song in a rusted cellar-like room, intercut with footage of a young boy sitting in the same room. As the song progresses, the boy is revealed to be haunted by ghost-like images. David Draiman said that the boy represents his inner child and also said, "This inner child has been damaged in such a way that the world he sees around him is dark and frightening and marred by life experience. It's haunted by specters and ghosts from the past."

A music video or song video is a short film integrating a song and imagery, produced for promotional or artistic purposes. Modern music videos are primarily made and used as a marketing device intended to promote the sale of music recordings. There are also cases where songs are used in tie in marketing campaigns that allow them to become more than just a song. Tie ins and merchandising could be used in toys are marketing campaigns for food and other products. Although the origins of music videos date back to musical short films that first appeared in the 1920s, they came into prominence in the 1980s when MTV based their format around the medium. Prior to the 1980s, these works were described by various terms including "illustrated song", "filmed insert", "promotional (promo) film", "promotional clip", "promotional video", "song video", "song clip" or "film clip". Since the creation and increased popularity of YouTube, mainstream artists now promote new music videos by releasing trailers of short promos on the site for their upcoming song and music video. Consequentially, YouTube has been converted into a social media platform for celebrities and artists to market themselves to their fans and audiences.

Yeah, bringing you another disturbing creation
From the mind of one sick animal who can't tell the difference
And gets stupefied
I've been waiting my whole life for just one fuck
And all I needed was just one fuck
How can you say that you don't give a fuck
I find myself stupefied, coming back again
All I wanted was just one fuck
One tiny little innocent fuck
And when I feel like I strayed out of luck
I find myself stupefied, 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 stupefied, 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 stupefied, I get stupefied
All the people in the left wing rock
And all the people in the right wing rock
And all the people in the underground rock
I find myself stupefied, coming back again
All the people in the high rise rock
And all the people in the projects rock
And all la hente in the bario rock
I find myself stupefied, 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 stupefied, 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 stupefied, I get stupefied
[Incomprehensible]
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 stupefied
Look in my face, stare in my soul
I begin to stupify
Look in my face, stare in my soul
I begin to stupify
Look in my face, stare in my soul
I begin to stupify
Look in my face, stare in my soul
I begin to stupify
Look in my face, stare in my soul
Look in my face, stare in my soul
Look in my face, stare in my soul
Look in my face, stare in my soul
Look in my face, stare in my soul
Look in my face, stare in my soul
Look in my face, stare in my soul
I begin to stupify
