When the people listen to you, don't you know it means a lot

'Cause 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 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

I don't want to act uncool 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 all on your own now - don't you think that it's a shame

But you're the only one responsible to take the blame

When ya gonna grow up and act, and be yourself

Cause pretty soon you'll find yourself nailed to the shelf

Grab it while you can, but don't ever relax

Cause there's always someone gonna stab your back

What ya gonna do, what ya gonna do when it's over?
