At A Later Date - Lyrics by Joy Division


Lyrics

...4!
Why must we be put down when we try to get away ?
Why must we all grow up when we could just play and play ?
Good things in life are free,
Can't buy everything - that's true.
Only one thing wrong with that;
What i don't buy i don't use.

Only thing i'm thinking of is why are we all here ?
There must be more to do at nights than drinking rotten beer.
The world's a very shady place, and you can't trust a soul.
"grin and bear it" seemed the thing,
When it just gets a hold.

At a later date, i come out a fright.
At a later date, i hope that you're alright.

Human beings are dangerous and they call me in the dark.
But everything gets twice as cold in marching for a lark.
There's loads of things i'd like to do, if i could find a time.
Working really tires me and i think i'll turn to crime.

At a later date, i come out a soon.
At a later date, before we hit the moon.

I just can't be bothered to make an effort here at all.
People make your paying contributions all too small.
I just can't be bothered to make an effort here at all.
People make your paying contributions all too small.

At a later date, i'll be awful great.
At a later date, someone somewhere blew it.
At a later date.
At a later date.
