Brian Hugh Warner (born January 5, 1969), known professionally as Marilyn Manson, is an American musician, songwriter, actor, painter, multimedia artist, and former music journalist. He is known for his controversial stage personality and image as the lead singer of the band Marilyn Manson, which he co-founded with Daisy Berkowitz and of which he remains the only constant member. His stage name was formed by juxtaposing the names of two American cultural icons, namely actress Marilyn Monroe and murderer Charles Manson.
He is best known for his band's records released in the 1990s, most notably Antichrist Superstar and Mechanical Animals, which along with his public image earned him a reputation in the mainstream media as a controversial figure and an allegedly negative influence on young people. In the U.S. alone, three of the band's albums have been awarded platinum and three more went gold, and the band has had eight releases debut in the top ten, including two number-one albums. Manson has been ranked number 44 in the Top 100 Heavy Metal Vocalists by Hit Parader, and has been nominated for four Grammy Awards.
Stare into my Kodak Rome Jack hammer out eyes
you never thought you'd see
the asphalt cra-cra crack like a black egg shell
Don't ever say I never warned you from the start
Don't ever say I never warned you from the start
You're not a shovel, I'm not your dirt
Is there any way to unswallow my pride
Can I fuck myself down?
Why die you can kill the father, that's lucidity
Your Macbeth confessed Oedipus no longer present tense
Your Macbeth confessed Oedipus no longer present tense
No No No No No Reason
No No No No No Reason
No No No No No Reason
I had enough of this
I had enough of this
I won't regret letting you live
even if you forgot what you never saved me from
So I say whatever, Oh for never
For for for for for for never
For for for for for for never
For for for for for for never, whatever
The rape of Persephone was choreographed by all the wrong Greeks
The rape of Persephone was a marketing scheme
Rape rape rape Persephone
Rape rape rape Persephone
Rape rape Persephone
Rape rape Persephone
I had enough of this
I had enough of this
I had enough of this
No No No No No Reason
No No No No No Reason
