Marilyn Manson - The Nobodies

Copied!

{Intro}
We are the nobodies

{Verse 1}
Today I'm dirty, I want to be pretty
Tomorrow, I know I'm just dirt
Today I'm dirty and I want to be pretty
Tomorrow, I know I'm just dirt

{Chorus}
We are the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
We're dead, they'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
We're dead, they'll know just who we are

{Verse 2}
Yesterday I was dirty, wanted to be pretty
Know now that I'm forever dirt
Yestеrday I was dirty, wanted to be pretty
Know now that I'm forеver dirt

{Chorus}
We are the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
We're dead, they'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
We're dead, they'll know just who we are

{Bridge}
Some children died the other day
We fed machines and then we prayed
Puked up and down in morbid faith
You should have seen the ratings that day
Some children died the other day
We fed machines and then we prayed
Puked up and down in morbid faith
You should have seen the ratings that day

{Interlude}
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na-na
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
We are the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
(Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na-na)
We're dead, they'll know just who we are
(Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na)
We are the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
(Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na-na)
We're dead, they'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies (Nobodies)
Wanna be somebodies (Somebodies)

{Chorus}
We are the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
We're dead, they'll know just who we are

{Outro}
Just who we are
Today I'm dirty
Today I'm dirty
Today I'm dirty

Biography

edit bio

Brian Hugh Warner who is better known under his stage name of Marilyn Manson is a musician, painter, actor, multimedia artist, and former music journalist. His stage name is a combination of the names of two American icons, actress Marilyn Monroe and multiple murder conspiracy convict Charles Manson.

I picked that (Marilyn Manson) as the fakest stage name of all to say that this is what show business is, fake. Marilyn Monroe wasn’t even her real name, Charles Manson isn’t his real name, and now, I’m taking that to be my real name. But what’s real? You can’t find the truth, you just pick the lie you like the best. As long as you know everything’s a lie, you can’t hurt yourself.

—Marylin Manson
