When people listen to you don't you know it means a lot?
'Cause you gotta work so hard for everything you've got.
Can't rest on your laurels now;
Not when you've got none.
You'll find yourself in the gutter
Right back where you came from.

Someone told me being in the know is the main thing;
We all need the security that belonging brings.
Can't stand on your own in these times
Against all the odds-
You'll just fall behind like all the other sods.

You slap our backs and pretend you knew about,
All the things that we were gonna do.
What you gonna do,
What you gonna do,
When it's over?

You're on your own now don't you think that its a shame?
But youre the only one responsible to take the blame?
So what ya gonna do when the novelty is gone?
Yeah what ya gonna do when the novelty is gone?

You slap our backs and pretend you knew about
All the things that we were gonna do.
What ya gonna do,
What ya gonna do,
When it's over?
