[Refrain: Martin L. Gore, "Dave Gahan"]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves, after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves, after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves, after all
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"

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Everything counts in large amounts
