The Bright Young Things
Marilyn Manson
Golden Age of Grotesque (2003)

We'll be the worms in your apple pie.
Fake abuse for our biles blacken our own eyes.
Grass isn't greener on the other side
We'll set it on fire, and we have no reason why

Set fashion, not follow
Spitfantry all not swallow
Set fashion, not follow
Spitfantry all not swallow

You know that I don't mind being everything that's bad
You know that I don't mind being everything that's bad

We know who we are and what we wanna say
And we don't care who's listening
Ae don't rebel to sell, it just suits us well
We're the bright young things

Got my villain necktie, and I'm alph hi-fi*
So sharp, I'm bleedin' from my Judas hole
Arch Dandy, no good to get a metaphor crash
Formal sponsor with the groan box in the meat show

Set fashion, not follow
Spitfantry all not swallow
Set fashion, not follow
Spitfantry all not swallow

You know that I don't mind being everything that's bad
You know that I don't mind being everything that's bad

We know who we are and what we wanna say
And we don't care who's listening
Ae don't rebel to sell, it just suits us well
We're the bright young things

Crashing the ether, we got the lighter stereotype
Even neophytes deep seed your pro-life*
We don't need to move a single parabol*
We're so beautiful and damned
life

Perpetual rebellion with absolutely no push
Perpetual rebellion with absolutely no push
Perpetual rebellion with absolutely no push
Perpetual rebellion with absolutely no push

Motherfucker, remember what you used to be?
Somebody that could fucking impress me

We know who we are and what we wanna say
And we don't care who's listening
Ae don't rebel to sell, it just suits us well
We're the bright young things

We know who we are and what we wanna say
And we don't care who's listening
Ae don't rebel to sell, it just suits us well
We're the bright young things

You know that I don't mind being everything that's bad
You know that I don't mind being everything that's bad
