* A portion of the song's chorus can be seen in a 2010 Facebook photo entitled "your goddamn right."
 
 
* "Square-halo angels" references early Christian paintings of religious scenes, in which living persons, who often-times had commissioned the actual painting, were portrayed with a square-shaped halo.<ref>[http://mb-soft.com/believe/txw/halo.htm Christian Halo, Nimbus].

* The lyric "creator, preserver, destroyer" references three ''I Ching'' trigrams. Respectively these are ''quán'' (☰), "the creative," ''kūn'' (☷), "the receptive" and ''zhèn'' (☳), "the arousing." ''Born Villain'' conceputalizes the archetypical villain, whom has the chance to change; with this line [[Marilyn Manson]] assumes the role of the destroyer in order to make the change. Creation, preservation and destruction are also the three forms in the Hindu concept of Trimurti.<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trimurti Trimurti]. Wikipedia.</ref>

* The lyric "creator, preserver, destroyer" is a reference to the three forms of the Hindu concept of Trimurti, personified by the gods Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, who are sequentially the gods of creation, preservation and destruction.<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trimurti Trimurti].

* Lyrics to the song can be found on a picture Manson uploaded in 2010 entitled "your goddamn right"
