It's funny because they are in no way trying to be like him at all. They don't claim to be "purveyors of black." What makes the bands today different is that they don't take themselves seriously, when assholes like him take themselves too damn seriously. No one cares about Marilyn Manson because of it.
Shock value doesn't do nearly as much for anyone anymore, especially when the most shocking he gets is calling new bands "less bolder" and shouting "fuck you." I'm pretty sure he stole these lyrics from a Jeffree Star song.
Actually, Jeffree Star probably takes things from Marilyn Manson, for example: At one point Marilyn Manson wore pink lipstick and had his hair dyed pink...a few years later Jeffree Star comes out with his pink lipstick, pink hair, and pink drawn on or dyed eyebrows...This song is most likely about Jeffree Star and Gerard Way in a way of not telling them to their faces, but through the public in an attempt to get the whole world to see their style as he does, (which is obliviously)Wannabes.
