Lyrics:
When people listen to you don’t you know it means a lot,
’cos you’ve got to 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 a 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 all 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 ya gonna do, what ya gonna do,
When it’s over?
You’re on your own now,
Don’t you think that’s a shame?
But you’re the only one responsible to take the blame
So what ya gonna do when the novelty has gone?
Yeah, what ya gonna do when the novelty has gone?
You slap our backs,
And pretend you knew about,
All the things we were gonna do
What ya gonna do, what ya gonna do
When it’s over?
’cos you’ve got to 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 a 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 all 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 ya gonna do, what ya gonna do,
When it’s over?
You’re on your own now,
Don’t you think that’s a shame?
But you’re the only one responsible to take the blame
So what ya gonna do when the novelty has gone?
Yeah, what ya gonna do when the novelty has gone?
You slap our backs,
And pretend you knew about,
All the things we were gonna do
What ya gonna do, what ya gonna do
When it’s over?
