[Silence]
[Instrumental Intro: Piano, Deep Sub-Bass Synth, Acoustic Guitar, Organ, Tribal Percussion, Electric Guitar, Drum Fills]
[Intro]
Maybe yes
(Maybe no)
Perhaps neither
(Or even either?)
Round and round
The arguments go
Everyone’s certain
(But do they know?)
[Verse 1]
There’s a line in the middle
(Where nobody stands)
One foot in reason
(One foot in the sands)
You can balance forever
(And call it a stance)
But sooner or later
(You still gotta dance)
[Refrain]
No, not on the fence
(Nonsense)
Consider the scope
(Walking a tightrope)
When after all…
(You fall)
[Verse 2]
The bigger the picture
The smaller the claim
The more that you measure
The harder the game
One little number
Can tell you a lot
But one little number
(Is all that you’ve got?)
[Refrain]
No, not on the fence
(Nonsense)
Consider the scope
(Walking a tightrope)
When after all…
(You fall)
[Bridge]
Left!
(Right!)
Dark!
(Light!)
Up!
(Down!)
In!
(Out!)
What are we talking about?
Near!
(Far!)
Oh, dear…
(Bizarre)
[Break]
On the fence?
(Circumstance stance)
Tightrope?
(Nope.)
Scope?
(Wide!)
Decide.
[Instrumental]
[Quirky guitar]
[Staccato piano]
[Building rhythm]
[Final Chorus]
No, not on the fence
(Nonsense)
Consider the scope
(Walking a tightrope)
When after all…
(You fall)
Go look!
(Go learn!)
Go ask!
(Go turn!)
[Outro]
Maybe yes…
(Maybe no…)
But if you’re going to balance…
(Watch where you go!)
No nonsense.
