[Verse 1]
On the talk back show
On the radio
At the local bar
In the hot traffic by the red tail lights
[Chorus]
Everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
When it's all in your hands
[Verse 2]
And we take it down
To the end of town
Where they have control
But they're losing touch when the lights go out
[Chorus]
Everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
It's all in your hands
Everybody's on their knees
Listen like thieves for the end result
But who needs that when you got it all in your hands
All in your hands
It's all in your hands!
[Verse 3]
You are all you need
You are all you need
And that is everything
So don't hesitate
There's no time to waste
Just do it for yourself
[Chorus]
I said everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that when it's all in your hands
You got it all
You got it all
It's all in your hands
You got it all
You got it all
[Outro]
I said everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that when it's all in your hands
On the talk back show
On the radio
At the local bar
In the hot traffic by the red tail lights
[Chorus]
Everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
When it's all in your hands
[Verse 2]
And we take it down
To the end of town
Where they have control
But they're losing touch when the lights go out
[Chorus]
Everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
It's all in your hands
Everybody's on their knees
Listen like thieves for the end result
But who needs that when you got it all in your hands
All in your hands
It's all in your hands!
[Verse 3]
You are all you need
You are all you need
And that is everything
So don't hesitate
There's no time to waste
Just do it for yourself
[Chorus]
I said everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that when it's all in your hands
You got it all
You got it all
It's all in your hands
You got it all
You got it all
[Outro]
I said everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that when it's all in your hands
