Get the Balance Right

There's more besides joyrides

The 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've 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

Don't turn this way, don't turn that way

Straight down the middle until next Thursday

First to the left, then back to the right

Twist and turn till you've got it right

Get the balance right

Get the balance right

Get the balance right

Get the balance right

Oh, get the balance right

Get the balance right

Oh, get the balance right

Get the balance right
