==Versions==
===Get Down, Make Love===
This is the only available version.
==Live==
"Get Down Make Love" has been performed live since the [["Pretty Hate Machine" Promotional Tour]]. After the second chorus, the band typically rests, as Reznor will either sing the last line of the chorus solo, communicate with the audience, or both. He used this moment at the tour stop in [[2006/06/14 Camden, NJ|Camden, NJ]] in 2006 to tell off someone for spitting on him.
==Lyrics==
Get down, make love
You say it's enough
In fact it's too much
Get down, make love
Get down, make love
You say it's enough
In fact it's too much
Get down, make love
There is also an audio sample at the beginning of the song, from Roger Kay's 1962 film, ''The Cabinet Of Caligari'' ([http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=iHKgfar1IuM Link to dialogue - 0:21-0:42]]): How old were you when you first let a man make love to you? Next who was he? Next, how did you feel at the time? Next, how did you feel afterwards? What did you feel, what did you think? Were you pleased, frightened, ecstatic, disgusted? What did he say? What words did you speak? That's what I want to know, Now, tell me, now, now, all of it, now, tell me, yes![[Category: NIN Songs]][[Category:Covers]]
