[Verse 1]
There's an apple in the pussy mouth
Now I am the dinner whore
There's a tumor in the TV mouth
Burn it out before it grows
Someone better get the dog to kick
Jaws wired shut to save the dick
Out of the bottomless pit
Comes the little horn

[Pre-Chorus]
"Little horn is born"
"Little horn is born"
"Little horn is born"
"Little horn is born"

[Chorus]
World spreads its legs for another star
World shows its face for another scar

[Verse 2]
Dead will dance for what is left
Worms will wait with bated breath
"Your blind have now become my deaf"
So says the little horn

[Pre-Chorus]
"Save yourself from this"
"Save yourself from this"
"Save yourself from this"
"Save yourself..."

[Chorus]
World spreads its legs for another star
World shows its face for another scar

[Bridge]
Everyone will suffer now
Everyone will suffer now
Everyone will suffer now
Everyone will suffer now
"You can't save yourself"
"You can't save yourself"
"You can't save yourself"
"You can't save yourself"

[Chorus]
World spreads its legs for another star
World shows its face for another scar

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
