歌词与翻译

[中文]

握手敲定契约

落笔再无退路

职业生涯转折

韩国虚情假意

假期纵情狂欢

契约依然生效

贪婪之手肆意攫取

终究只为私欲

贪婪之手肆意攫取

终究只为私欲

这是个竞技场

万物皆以量取胜

...

墙上的走势图

诉说完整故事

试想此刻场景

谎言与欺诈正蚕食权柄

古铜肤色与殷勤笑意

轻易博取信任

贪婪之手肆意攫取

终究只为私欲

贪婪之手肆意攫取

终究只为私欲

这是个竞技场

万物皆以量取胜

...

万物皆以量取胜

...

贪婪之手肆意攫取

万物皆以量取胜

贪婪之手肆意攫取

万物皆以量取胜

一切 世间种种

所有 人间百态

贪婪之手肆意攫取

万物皆以量取胜

贪婪之手肆意攫取

万物皆以量取胜

...

[英语]

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

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

Everything counts in large amounts

The graph on the wall

Tells the story of it all

Picture it now, see just how

The lies and deceit gained a little more power

Confidence taken in

By a suntan and a grin

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

Everything counts in large amounts

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

Everything, everything

Everything, everything

The grabbing hands grab all they can

Everything counts in large amounts

The grabbing hands grab all they can

Everything counts in large amounts
