[Intro]
Light a candle for the sinners
Set the world on fire

[Verse 1]
Anti choice and anti girl
I am the anti-flag unfurled
Anti white and anti man
I got the anti-future plan
Anti fascist, anti mod
I am the anti-music god
Anti sober, anti whore
There will never be enough of anti more

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't believe in the things that don't believe in me
Now, it's your turn to see what I hate about me

[Chorus]
Anti people, now you've gone too far
Here's your Antichrist Superstar

[Verse 2]
Anti money, anti hate
Anti things I fucked and ate
Anti cop and anti fun
Here is my anti-President gun
Anti Satan, anti black
The anti world is on my back
Anti gay and anti dope
I am the faggot anti-Pope

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't believe in the things that don't believe in me
Now, it's your turn to see what I hate about me

[Chorus]
Anti people, now you've gone too far
Antichrist Superstar
Anti people, now you've gone too far
Here's your Antichrist Superstar

[Bridge]
This is where your faith ends
1996! 1996! 1996! 1996!

[Verse 3]
Anti peace and anti life
Anti husband, anti wife
Anti song and anti me
I don't deserve a chance to be

[Chorus]
Anti people, now you've gone too far
Antichrist Superstar
Anti people, now you've gone too far
Here's your Antichrist Superstar

Marilyn Manson

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
