| Song lyrics |
Today I am dirty
I want to be pretty
Tomorrow I'll know that I'm just dirt
Today I am dirty
I want to be pretty
Tomorrow I'll know that I'm just dirt
We are the nobodies
We wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies
We wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
Yesterday I was dirty
Wanted to be pretty
I know now that I'm forever dirt
Yesterday I was dirty
Wanted to be pretty
I know now that I'm forever dirt
We are the nobodies
We wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies
We wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
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
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na
We are the nobodies (Na, na, na, na, na)
Wanna be somebodies (Na, na, na, na, na)
When we're dead (Na, na, na, na, na)
They'll know just who we are (Na, na, na, na, na)
We are the nobodies (Na, na, na, na, na)
Wanna be somebodies (Na, na, na, na, na)
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are
We are the nobodies
Wanna be somebodies
When we're dead
They'll know just who we are

You know...there are songs out there that just talk to people...make them feel like they are worth something...for me this is one of those songs...the first time i heard "The Nobodies" I cried myself to sleep because it struck me so hard. I adore Marilyn Manson and I hate seeing people trash him and make it seem like he's the most hateful thing on our earth....wrong...the things he sings about are meant to make you think...look deeper than the surface and anyone will see why I love Marilyn Manson the way I do. | 05-11-2004 13:05 Buffy Summers |  28 posts
| yeah burkabee or whoever you are. i couldn't have said it better myself. marilyn manson fu*kin rocks.

bye!  | 15-01-2005 07:23 Carlz89 |  190 posts
| Man I adore this song, one of his best. Fuck I love Marilyn Manosn, with a passion. And this song really does make you stop and think- I really AM a nobody, and the world will never know my music, or my voice... it's just the way it is, isn't it?
Sigh. Good song tho. I haven't seen the filmclip, if there is one, but I've made one up in my head and it is so cool. There's the norms, and the goths, standing apart from one another, the goths holding knives and all sorts of cool weapons. And like, the norms are looking at the goths like they are nothing, and then the goths advance on them, chasing them and killing them off. And blood goes on the lens of the camera and it is just so mad. | 22-02-2005 23:40 nAmelessNerdicA |  1 posts

i've re I understand this song so much more now with my current situation and all...
some children died the other day
fed there machines and then we prayed
puked up and down in morbid faith
should of seen the ratings that day
I've just found out that the media got a hold of the story about my friends and i pending expullsion(sp?).(we were playing around and said we were going to kill the teacher in the most sarcastic way, but since the principle had to save his ass from being fired decided to make us an a example, he got demoted ne way) and because the media looked at one sentence and decided to make the whole note seem serious there is a possbility that our chances of getting back into school is slim to none. so now my whole life is ruined because college doesn't like that with out college i can't be a forensic pathologist and my dreams are taken away.
Now about the being Goth thingy I've listened to Marilyn since i was four. I loved him since then. His music always made me feel better and feel accepted. i wish i could have the chance of telling Mr. Warner that himself but i doubt it. so i will just praise him here.

| I love Marilyn Manson, always have, always will, and pisses the crap outta me when people say things like "How can you like his music, it means nothing and its so hateful" Wrong, dumbasses . All his music means a lot and many people who dont understand call it nothing. Manson is a friggin genius and people should respect the work that he and his former/current band members have put together over the years.

this is a great song. i abhor the critics and fools who refuse to hear anything by marilyn manson because "he has boobs" or "he sucks his own dick," both untrue rumors. computer animation started the first rumor and idiots with nothing better to do but bash socially unacceptable musicians and promote the mainstream started the second one. anyway, this is truly a great song and it speaks to me as i am a "nobody" in the grand scheme of things. | 01-05-2005 14:20 Spiderbait |  2 posts

I love this song. I love to hear Manosn although I don't take him as serious as you do. This song has never made me cry although what he says is kinda true.
There is a videoclip and is does not at all have "goths" and "norms" in them. It's just him doing the things he's good at and a few children. I think it's a lot better then your gothnorm thing. That is just ridiculous. You give "goth" people a bad name.
Maybe a lot of Manson fans take him and themselves too serious. I've seen him live twice and loved the whole performance. But I also saw a lot of teens who were seriously troubled. It's sad to see them take him so damn serious when he doesn't even take himself serious. He does have some songs that make you think but not that many!
And I am not a nobody in my own eyes. I think it's about how people see themselves. Just because you arent famous and the whole world doesn't know your name does not make you a nobody. It's the way you look at yourself. Still the song is good ! | 06-05-2005 12:48 atoetob |  59 posts

Erhm..haven't anyone noticed that the lyric here is WRONG?
Somebody really gotta change that..maybe I will.
Marylin Manson..hehe..I love 'sweet dreams'..I saw 'haunted house on haunted hill',and at the end I heard it..I knew I had heard the song before,and I knew that I loved it.I just knew.
I know it sounds like bullshit,but it's fucking true..
If I love him?
I love his music.I love the way he is.I love that he doesn't care about what others say.
I love him cause he is DIFFERENT!
We all come to a point in life where we stop,and think about the world,how it is.Who we love.Who we hate.What are we?Is this human??This way of living?!Ordinary..NO!I dont want to be.
Why does people who's different get all the negative atention?
When I said to a girl in my class that I were listening to Manson,she replayd; What?! He is sick!!!Your fucking scaring me,please,dont be like him.
FUCKING SHIT!
I love manson because he is TRUE!He ain't like all the others..
He's pure

I must agree that his music is very very good, no doubt, and yes I hate when ppl are saying bad things about him only cuz he's different from all the other musicians, well he's not Metallica and not Bob Dylan but ppl need to listen to the music and not look at the artist's appearance nor his reputation. This song is a very good one I realy like it! Manson ROX \m/ \m/ | 09-12-2005 05:05 purityofhell |  29 posts

to all of you people who said this song is to make people feel good about themselves are wrong....this song is about Columbine
if you think about it makes perfect sense...he is saying that the kids who did it were "dirty" because everyone hated them and abused them...."i want to pretty" tells that they are sick of being victimized and decide to do something about it...couple with the other parts and the chorus, they decide to leave a big mark on society and be remembered like that...then "but tomorrow i know...im forever dirt" they realize that society has absoluty no place for people who don't fit in...no matter how big a statement they make...then the "some children died the other day...we fed machines and then we prayed...puked up and down in morbid faith...you should've seen the ratings that day" talks about how the media used religion and hid behind as a way to hide themselves from blame..and also to get ratings as the song says.....that is a very shortened meaning of the song to me | 11-01-2006 16:13 KaraNoir |  2 posts

To Calz89:Ur video (no offense) truly does give a bad name to "goths" yet the thing u put above that made a good point
To Lucifer 666:Good F*cken point!!!
Spiderbait:I think that you should really think about songs like this, u'd take them a whole hell of a lot more serious, they make strong points and if u understand what they're saying you will take them serious
Forever Dead: Love ur point on different thing
Purity of Hell: Big Kudos to this purity of Hell guy, honestly how F*ckin long does it take for you ppl to realize what this song really means! THis guy summarized it perfectly!
