Get the Balance Right!

There's more besides the joyrides 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 When you think you've got a hold of it all You haven't got a hold at all (all) When you reach the top Get ready to drop Prepare yourself for the fall (the fall) You're going to fall It's almost predictable (Almost) Don't tend this way Don't tend that way Straight down the middle until next Thursday First to the left Back to the right Twist and turn until you got it right Get the balance right Get the balance right Get the balance right Get the balance right (Almost) Get the balance right Get the balance right (Almost) Get the balance right --- Get the Balance Right! - Depeche Mode
