The pendulum swings
a fresh start that changes everything
erasing the board
the future's in store
the pendulum swings
The pendulum swings
yes your life is on a string
you're suddenly split
between razor and pit
the pendulum swings
One day your treading lightly
the very next day your high and mighty
uh ho oh
the pendulum swings
The pendulum swings
do you wonder what the next day brings?
it clears off the floor
and evens the score
the pendulum swings
The pendulum swings
the pendulum swings
uh ho oh
The pendulum swings
do you wonder when the bell will ring?
suffer your heart
on the fall of the cards
the pendulum swings
The pendulum swings
it's all over when the lady sings
could be a clown
you could be a king
One day your treading lightly
the very next day your high and mighty
uh ho oh
the pendulum swings
Uh ho oh
the pendulum swings
Uh ho oh
the pendulum swings
