It's a bit darker and more subversive, too. For example, both versions have the lines:
"There's a principle of nature that almost every creature knows
It's called survival of the fittest, and this is how it goes
The animal that wins has got to claw and bite and kick and punch
The animal that doesn't winds up someone else's lunch."
But "Biggering" adds another line that makes the song hit a bit harder:
"A company's an animal
Just trying to survive
It's struggling and fighting
Just to keep itself alive."

Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?
