Marilyn Manson

Brian Hugh Warner (born January 5, 1969), better known by his stage name Marilyn Manson, is an American rock musician and former music journalist known for his controversial stage persona and image as the lead singer of the eponymous band Marilyn Manson. His stage name was formed from juxtaposing the names of two American cultural icons, namely actress Marilyn Monroe and multiple murder convict Charles Manson as a critical and, simultaneously, laudatory appraisal of America and its peculiar culture. The seemingly outrageous visual and vocal styles he employs, his unique interpretations of familiar songs and the controversy surrounding his lyrics and imagery have led to his very pronounced public appeal. more »

We'll be the worms in your apple pie 
Fake abuse for our bios 
Blacken our own eyes 
The grass isn't greener on the other side 
We set it on fire 
And we have no reason why. 
Set fashion, not follow 
Spit vitriol, not swallow 
We set fashion, not follow 
Spit vitriol, not swallow 

We're 
Good for nothing but being 
Everything that's bad 
Good for nothing but being 
Everything that's bad 
We know who we are and what we want to say 
And we don't care who's listening 
We don't rebel to sell 
It just suits us well 
We're the bright young things 
I've got my villain necktie 
And a mouth of hi-fi 
So sharp, I'm bleeding 
from my Judas Hole 
I'm the Arch Dandy 
No-goodnik and I'm headed 
For Crashville. 

I'm most monster with my groan box 
In the "Meat Show." 
We set fashion, not follow 
Spit vitriol, not swallow 
Good for nothing but being 
Everything that's bad 
Good for nothing but being 
Everything that's bad 
We know who we are and what we want to say 
And we don't care who's listening 
We don't rebel to sell 
It just suits us well 
We're the bright young things 
Crashing the ether 
We've got the loudest stereotype 
Even neophytes deep 6 your pro-life. 

We Don't need to move a single prayer bone 
We're so beautiful and damned 
Simply as a "still life." 
Perpetual rebellion with absolutely no cause 
Perpetual rebellion with absolutely no cause 
Perpetual rebellion with absolutely no cause 
Perpetual rebellion with absolutely no cause 

Stop the song and remember what you used to be 
Somebody that fucking impressed me 
We know who we are and what we want to say 
And we don't care who's listening 
We don't rebel to sell 
It just suits us well 
We're the bright young things 
We know who we are and what we want to say 
And we don't care who's listening 
We don't rebel to sell 
It just suits us well 

We're the bright young things 
Good for nothing but being 
Everything that's bad 
Good for nothing but being 
Everything that's bad
