Ian Curtis - Novelty lyrics

[Verse 1] When the people listen to you, don't you know it means a lot? Because 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] You slap our backs and pretend you knew about All the things that we were gonna do What you're gonna do? What you're gonna do when it's over [Verse 4] 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 So what you're gonna do when the novelty is gone? Yeah, what you're gonna do when the novelty is gone? [Chorus] You slap our backs and pretend you knew about All the things that we were gonna do What you're gonna do? What you're gonna do when it's over?
