At A Later Date - Joy Division

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,

Cant buy everything — thats true.

Only one thing wrong with that;

What I dont buy I dont use.

Only thing Im thinking of is why are we all here?

There must be more to do at nights than drinking rotten beer.

The worlds a very shady place, and you cant 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 youre alright.

Human beings are dangerous and they call me in the dark.

But everything gets twice as cold in marching for a lark.

Theres loads of things Id like to do, if I could find a time.

Working really tires me and I think Ill turn to crime.

At a later date, I come out a soon.

At a later date, before we hit the moon.

I just cant be bothered to make an effort here at all.

People make your paying contributions all too small.

I just cant be bothered to make an effort here at all.

People make your paying contributions all too small.

At a later date, Ill be awful great.

At a later date, someone somewhere blew it.

At a later date.

At a later date.
