Hand It Over
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The deals we made
To shake things up
And the rights that they abuse
Might just fuck us over
But the doors won't shut
Until they're sure
There's nothing left to use
Someone's taking over
Threw it away, but now I say
It's time to
Hand it over
The joke's worn thin
The king stepped in
Now we'll see who is who
Look who's bending over
But the stars weren't wrong
The time felt right
We both knew it was true
The smart ones exit early
And the rest hope for a shoulder
If we lose our touch
It won't mean much
If everyone's confused
Which door do we open?
It's the same old trick
They played the hand
Now there's one thing to left to do
It's time (hand it over)
It's yours and it's mine (hand it over)
One thing on my mind (hand it over)
It's rightfully mine (hand it over)
In the dark (hand it over)
What's yours is mine (hand it over)
Make it right (hand it over)
And give me what's mine (hand it over)
Oh, this time (hand it over)
It's yours and mine (hand it over)
Hey, it's time to (hand it over)
Just give me what's mine (hand it over)
Anytime (hand it over)
It's yours and it's mine (hand it over)
Ooh, I need time (hand it over)
No, it's rightfully mine (hand it over)
Ooh, anytime
