Get The Balance Right Lyrics
Depeche Mode
Theres more besides joyrides
Little house in the countryside
Understand, learn to demand,
Compromise, 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 youve got a hold of it all
You havent got a hold at all
When you reach the top, get ready to drop
Prepare yourself for the fall, youre gonna fall
Its almost predictable
Dont take this way, dont take that way
Straight down the middle until next thursday
Push to the left, back to the right
Twist and turn til youve got it right
Get the balance right
