I love both of them, they are almost two seperate songs.
Lennon's version is sung by a man resigned to his fate without the ability to be really pissed about it anymore. He understands all the shit going on but can't get outraged, its just a fact that life works like this.
Manson isn't resigned to this fate, he's pissed! A very angry version of it, making the song his own.
I don't know if i prefer either, i just think they suit different moods.
