[Intro: Dave Gahan]
"Alright!"
"Whohoo!"

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
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 1: Martin L. Gore & Peter Gordeno, "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
"It's a competitive world" "Sing it!"
Everything counts in large amounts
"Whohoo!"

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
The graph on the wall
Tells the story of it all
Picture it now, see just how
The lies and deceit gained a little morе power
Confidence takеn in
By a suntan and a grin
[Chorus 1: Dave Gahan, Martin L. Gore & Peter Gordeno]
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" "Sing it!"
Everything counts in large amounts "Woooh!"
Everything counts in large amounts

[Interlude: Dave Gahan]
"Check it, boys!"

[Chorus: Martin L. Gore & Peter Gordeno]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts

[Bridge: Dave Gahan]
Eveything, everything
Eveything, everything

[Chorus 2: Dave Gahan, Martin L. Gore & Peter Gordeno]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
[Outro: Martin L. Gore & Peter Gordeno, (audience), "Dave Gahan"]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
