Music video

The music video for "Spit It Out" consists of cuts between a live performance of the song and a band parody of the 1980 horror film "The Shining", with Joey Jordison as Daniel Torrance, Shawn Crahan and Chris Fehn as the Grady twins, Corey Taylor as Jack Torrance, Mick Thomson as Lloyd the Bartender, Craig Jones as Dick Hallorann and James Root as Winifred Torrance. Paul Gray and Sid Wilson are also shown briefly between cuts.

"Zero Bullshit"

When playing the song live, the band often include something they refer to as the "Zero Bullshit", shown in the music video as well as on their 2002 video album "Disasterpieces". Near the end of the song there is a coda section where the music and singing builds up to a highly energetic section where vocalist Corey Taylor screams, "Fuck me, I'm all out of enemies!" repeatedly. Before this begins, he tells the audience to crouch down and to jump up when he shouts "Jump the fuck up!", which he replaces the line "good enough - had enough" with.
