"Eat You Alive" is a song by the band Limp Bizkit from their fourth studio album Results May Vary. It's released as the band's first single from the album.
The version of 'Just Drop Dead' on this single is slightly different from the one Fred Durst leaked onto the internet in retaliation to Britney Spears. The bassline is much clearer, and is increased in volume, and an echo has been added to the chorus, among other small changes.
The music video for 'Eat You Alive' features Thora Birch, as well as Bill Paxton.

[edit] Video
There are two versions for the music video: "Long Intro Version" and "No Intro Version". In the beginning of the Long Intro Version, Fred Durst is seen driving an old pick-up truck in a forest believed to take place in a southern state. One of the band members arrives and informs Fred that they are getting ready to shoot their video. "Eat You Alive" is seen in giant letters on the screen. Durst is then seen through the eyes of a young girl (Thora Birch) who is believed to have been kidnapped by Durst and his crew. Durst says "You're gonna love this" and the music begins. The camera switches from the band playing to a group of people led by a man (Bill Paxton), who is presumably the girl's father, scouring the woods with flashlights and blood hounds. There are points in the song where the Music calms to a less extreme, scream video to a softer voiced Durst singing the lyrics "I'm Sorry/So Sorry/Your Beauty/Is So Vain...It Drives Me/Yes, It Drives Me/Absolutley/Insane" Before becoming aggressive. She becomes increasingly attracted to him as he sings a small ballad to her. But his song his disrupted as the father's gang nears their position. They hear them coming and leave her behind. The video ends with the father finding her in the chair where the band was playing. He becomes enraged and runs off to find them, but they've already made their escape.
