Marilyn Manson, born Brian Hugh Warner, is the lead singer of the Los Angeles based alternative rock group of the same name. Warner chose the name, a combination of Marilyn Monroe and Charles Manson, to illustrate what he considered to be the extreme dualism of late 20th century American culture. The stage name of each band member was originally created by combining the first name of an iconic female sex symbol and the last name of an iconic mass murderer or serial killer, though this naming convention has not extended to new band members after the mid-90s. Formed in 1989 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, as Marilyn Manson & the Spooky Kids, the band's uniquely theatrical performances gathered a local cult following that developed over time into a worldwide fanbase. By the late 1990s the band was considered one of modern music's most widely-known and controversial acts; this was due, in large part, to Manson's then-frequent clashes with religious and political groups.

Dead God Lyrics
Marilyn Manson
Rewrite the consitution.
Let's justify the revolution.
The end is here.
If you're a part of the institution.
You're not a part of the solution.
Bow down to fear.
I, I, I am the president.
I, I, the emperor.
I, I, I am the king of the world.
The only good god is a dead god.
The only god good for me.
The only good god is a dead god, baby.
The only damn god I need.
Don't draw your own conclusion.
Submit to the grand illusion.
Get on your knees.
There will be no absolution.
No final step of evolution.
The end is near.
I, I, I am the president.
I, I, the emperor.
I, I, I am the king of the world.
The only good god is a dead god.
The only god good for me.
The only good god is a dead god, baby.
The only damn god I need.
The only good god is a dead god.
The only god good for me.
The only good god is a dead god, baby.
The only damn god I need.
Your world means nothing to me.
Your saviors a fool still in your dreams.
And when you're wrapped in your blame,
Fullfill your own prophecy.
No skin off my teeth.
The only good god is a dead god.
The only god good for me.
The only good god is a dead god, baby.
The only damn god I need.
The only good god is a dead god.
The only god good for me.
The only good god is a dead god, baby.
The only fucking god I need.
I killed your king of the saint.
Chaos come onto me.
I am free.
And when you're ultimately,
Consumed by your own fucking greed.
You will see.
