On the talk back show
On the radio
At the local bar
In the hot traffic
By the red tail lights

Everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
When it's all in your hands

And we take it down
To the end of town
Where they have control
But they're losing touch
When the lights go out

Everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
It's all in your hands

Everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
For the end results
But who needs that
When you've got it
All in your hands
It's all in your hands

It's all in your hands

You are all you need
You are all you need
And that is everything
So don't hesitate
There's no time to waste
You just do it for yourself

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

I said, everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
When it's all in your hands

INXS

INXS (pronounced "in excess", In-XS) were an Australian rock band, formed as The Farriss Brothers in 1977 in Sydney, New South Wales. Mainstays were Garry Gary Beers on bass guitar, Andrew Farriss on guitar and keyboards, Jon Farriss on drums, Tim Farriss on lead guitar and Kirk Pengilly on guitar and saxophone. For 20 years, INXS were fronted by Michael Hutchence on lead vocals, whose "sultry good looks" and magnetic stage presence made him the focal point of the band. Initially known for their New Wave/ska/pop style, they later developed a harder pub rock style, including funk and dance elements. more »
