Depeche Mode – 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

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

(The 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 (4x)
