Lyrics
When will you realize you're already there?
So watered-down, your feelings have turned to mud.
"Love everybody" is destroying the value of
All hate has got me nowhere
I know I'm slipping, I know I'm slipping, I know I'm slipping away
I know I'm slipping, I know I'm slipping, I know I'm slipping away
Oh no, it is everything they said it was
Oh no, I am all the things they said I was
Oh no, it is everything they said it was
Oh no, I am all the things they said I was
When you you get to heaven you will wish you're in hell
When you you get to heaven you will wish you're in hell
When will you realize you're already here?
You'll thank us now that you have crossed over
Don't pick the scabs or you will never heal
The world shudders as the worm gets its wings
Oh no, it is everything they said it was
Oh no, I am all the things they said I was
Oh no, it is everything they said it was
Oh no, I am all the things they said I was
(Then I got my wings, and I never even knew it
when I was a worm, thought I wouldn't get through it)
When you get to heaven you will wish you're in hell
When you get to heaven you will wish you're in hell
Oh no, it is everything they said it was
Oh no, I am all the things they said I was
Oh no, it is everything they said it was
Oh no, I am all the things they said I was
Oh no, it is... said it was
Oh no, I am... said I was
Oh no, it is... said it was
Oh no, I am everything they said I was
Oh no, it is... said it was
Oh no, I am... said I was
Oh no
Trivia
- According to photos on his MySpace profile, former Marilyn Manson guitarist Scott Putesky, better known as Daisy Berkowitz, used an Ibanez Iceman to record "Wormboy".[1]
- The song features a passage containing the same lyrics as heard in "Kinderfeld": "then I got my wings and I never knew it/when I was the worm, thought I wouldn't get through it..."
- According to Manson's autobiography, this song most incorporated Daisy Berkowitz's musical ideas.
