Lyrics

[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
[Verse 2]
The holiday was fun packed
The contract still intact
[Verse 3]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves after all
[Verse 4]
It's a competitive world
Sing it
Everything counts in large amounts
[Verse 5]
The graph on the wall
Tells the story of it all
We picture it now, see just how
The lies and deceit gained a little more power
[Verse 6]
Confidence taken in
By a sun tan and a grin
[Verse 7]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves after all
[Verse 8]
It's a competitive world
Sing it!
Everything counts in large amounts
Everything counts in large amounts
Take it, boys
[Verse 9]
Grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
[Verse 10]
Everything, everything
Everything, everything
[Verse 11]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
[Verse 12]
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
The grabbing hands grab all they can
Everything counts in large amounts
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
(The grabbing hands grab all they can)
(Everything counts in large amounts)
[Verse 13]
Thanks so much
Berlin, you really are the best
