Name: Balance Out
Duration: P00H04M36S
Description: Way young when I wrote this one, so it's rather optimistic... an exploration of karma, balance, 'fairness' vs expedience ...you get the idea. I still like this song after 20 odd years, even if I had no grasp of realpolitik at the time!

lyrics

Someone has a really big dinner
Someone get's a little bit thinner
Does it all balance out?
Someone bathes in milk and honey
Someone's never heard of your money
Does it all balance out?
If someone murders a llama
Will anyone get bitten by karma
Does it all balance out?
If someone lies as expected
Should anyone be re-elected
Does it all balance out?
All balance out,
Balance out

One man's death by religion
Another man's idle fiction
Does it all balance out?
One worships a petrol heaven
One works 7-11
Does it all balance out?
Used to sit up and take notice
Now you don't even know what a vote is
Does it all balance out?
Used to see your faith in action
Now you're only a static fraction
Who cannot balance out
Not balance out
Balance out
