"Suck" is the second hidden track on 1992's Broken EP. Originally packaged with "Physical (You're So)" on a Mini CD sold with the EP, it was later incorporated onto the EP as a hidden track after allegations that some music stores were removing the Mini CD and selling it separately. "Suck" is track 99 on Broken while "Physical (You're So)" is track 98.

Pigface, The Best of Pigface, Gub
This is the version found on the Broken EP.
This remix, found on Fixed, combines both "Suck" and "Last."
This live version is similar to the album version, but the ending is very different, with Reznor shouting "Suck!" repeatedly rather than singing the song's final lyrics.
"Suck" was played occasionally during the Pretty Hate Machine era, and has become a regular in the set since the Self Destruct tour.
There is no god up in the sky tonight
No sign of Heaven anywhere in sight
All that was true is left behind
Once I could see now I am blind
Don't want the dreams you try to sell
This disease I give it to myself
How does it feel?
Suck suck suck
She makes it sweeter than the sun
I get too tight I come undone
I bow my head to confess
The temple walls are made of flesh
Runs up my arm till I'm on track
Itches the skin right off my back
I'll heal your wounds
I'll set you free
I'm Jesus Christ on ecstasy
I feel so dirty on the inside
I am so dirty on the inside
A thousand lips
A thousand tongues
A thousand throats
A thousand lungs
A thousand ways to make it true
I want to do terrible things to you
