Head Like a Hole (Nine Inch Nails cover) Lyrics

God money I'll do anything for you
God money just tell me what
You want me to
God money nail me up against the wall
God money don't want everything
he wants it all

No, you can't take it
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take that away from me
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take that away from me

Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die
Than give you control

Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die
Than give you control

Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve
Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve

God money's not looking for the cure
God money's not concerned about the Sick among the pure
God money let's go dancing on the Backs of the bruised
God money's not one to choose

No, you can't take it
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take that away from me
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take that away from me

Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die
Than give you control

Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die
Than give you control

Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve
Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve
Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve
Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve

Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die
Than give you control

Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die
Than give you control

Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die
Than give you control

Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die
Than give you control

Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve
Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve
Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve
Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve

I loved the nine inch nails version of this, but it kind of disappoints me that a band would do a cover like this.

there aren't THAT many differences between the two, besides the general emotion of the song. trent reznor's voice is edgier and the emotion sounds truer (maybe because he wrote it. go figure...)

the whole point is that if you aren't going to really add something to the song, what is the freaking point of making it? it's just deceiving to people that listen to it thinking that AFI is amazing for writing it.

it's like if an average joe painted an almost exact replica of the Mona Lisa, and showed it off to people. the people that had never seen the original painting would think it was great, and the people that had seen the original Mona Lisa would spit in the guy's face for trying to compare himself to the great Leonardo Da Vinci.

It's a cover from N.I.N but I like this one better. A LOT better

wow this is a great cover... though he is no trent. a good tribute to the most talented musician EVER-- trent rezner. i dont see how you can possibly like this cover better than the original.

It's Reznor you fucking moron. Why don't any of you people ever comment on the meaning rather than 'How mch thes song rox lolz \m/\m/'

The meaning is the same as NIN's version, obviously, because it is a cover, unless of course Davey added his own meaning to it somehow. Knowing Davey in fact I would not be surprised.

As far as I am concerned it is about suits, people that don't give a fuck about anyone else as long as they get their gucci suits, their top of the range briefcases, their capaccino at each break and of course their paychecks. Or it could also just be about general inconsiderate people. but that discludes the 'Got money' part.

1) i don't see how anyone can say that this song is better than reznor's. there's nothing new here, nothing impressive. it's a decent enough cover, but i can't really say it's better because there was nothing particularly impressive about it.

2) keep in mind that this song was written around the time that people like jim bakker were being exposed as frauds and embezzelors. hence "god money."

This is a great cover, but I don't think it could be better than the original. Either way AFI kicks major ass

I actually prefer this version over NIN's... I guess I just like Devey's voice more.
