What are you going to do with your new ways?
What are you going to do with your new wave?
Maybe it's that you no longer care.
Now you're so great.
You've just got to stand there.
Or were you never even bothered anyway,
About the new wave.

What about the new wave?
Did you think it would change things?

Here we all are in the latest craze.
Stick with the crowd,
hope it's not a passing phase.
It's the latest thing to be nowhere.
You can turn into the wallpaper.
But you know you were always there anyway,
Without the new wave.

What about the new wave?
Did you think it would change things?

It's just safety in numbers,

When it's tricky, when it gets tough,
When you need to feel that you're good enough,
All you pretty people who've been taken over.
Had better start looking for your own answers.
'Cause there's no safety in numbers anyway,
Or in a new wave

What about the new wave?
Did you think it would change things?

It's just safety in numbers.
