Depeche Mode - Get the Balance Right! Lyrics

There's more, there's more
There's more, there's more besides joyrides
A little house in the countryside
Understand, learn to demand
Compromise and sometimes lie

Get the balance right
Get the balance right

Be responsible, respectable
Stable but gullible
Concerned and caring, help the helpless
But always remain ultimately selfish

Get the balance right
Get the balance right

You think you've got a hold of it all
You haven't got a hold at all
When you reach the top, get ready to drop
Prepare yourself for the fall, you're gonna fall
It's almost predictable, almost

You don't take this way, don't take that way
Straight down the middle until next Thursday
Reverse to the left, then back to the right
You twist and turn 'til you've got it right

Get the balance right
Get the balance right

Left, right, right, right

Get the balance right
Get the balance right
Get the balance right
...
