[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
(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)
"Thanks very much!"
"Berlin, believe me, you're the best!"

Depeche Mode are recognized as one of the most artistically influential bands of the late 20th century. Commercially, they have released 14 studio albums to date, and sold more than 100 million records. Their most recent album, Spirit, hit the streets in March 2017.

The band got their start in Basildon, Essex in 1980, and named themselves after a French fashion magazine. They rose to fame with hits that have become “Just Can’t Get Enough” (1981), “Everything Counts” (1983), and “People Are People” (1984), to name a few. One of their most famous concerts was at the Pasadena Rose Bowl in 1988.

Martin Gore has been the band’s primary songwriter since Vince Clarke left in the early 1980s (and went on to form Yazoo and Erasure). Alan Wilder replaced Clarke on keyboards in 1982, but left in 1995 (reinvesting his creative energy in his band, Recoil, which he had started in 1986). Since then, the band has comprised frontman Dave Gahan, multi-instrumentalist Martin Gore, and keyboardist Andy Fletcher—all of whom are original members.
