In Flames
Everything Counts
[Verse 1]
The handshake seals the contract
From the contract there's no turning back
The turning point of a career
In Korea being insincere
The holiday was fun-packed
The contract, still intact!

[Chorus]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
It's a competitive world
Everything counts in large amounts

[Verse 2]
The graph on the wall
Tells the story of it all
Picture it now
And see just how
The lies and deceit gained a little more power
Confidence - taken in
By a suntan and a grin!

[Chorus]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
It's a competitive world
Everything counts in large amounts
Everything counts in large amounts
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all
It's a competitive world!
