==Music Video==
The video features Reznor stalking Bowie throughout the streets of New York, with Bowie constantly trying to escape. Throughout the video, violent acts, seemingly only visible to Bowie, are "committed" with finger guns by bystanders, culminating in Reznor firing an automatic imaginary machine gun at a taxi cab that Bowie had just exited. Reznor subsequently appears bearing a cross as part of a misfit parade passing Bowie in the street, chanting "God is an American." The video was directed by Dominic Hawley and Nick Goffey (aka Dom and Nic) and was inspired by the film ''Taxi Driver''.
There is an uncensored version of the video where the woman in the entryway is seen sucking the latex glove-covered finger gun of the old man. The censored version just shows her bending down near him in a suggestive manner. Some broadcast versions of the video also censor the lyric "pussy".
