Out in the land where my dreams flew around I bulldozed the trees and set my feet on the ground Put a day in and a week would come out I didn't have time for doubt Then when the whole thing went down the drain I learned that the future don't always obey Now I'm afraid to get back in the pool Somehow I'd feel like a fool Makin' a Plan Makin' a Plan High in the morning with climbing to do High in the turrets I'm thinking of you Everybody says it's all for the best Somehow I wouldn't have guessed Little dominions turn into dust Schemes blow away on a breeze of mistrust I'm not feeling sorry for little poor me But I'm not about to be Makin' a Plan Makin' a Plan Stop, you work your way up till you drop Down down until your ears go pop What were we gonna do at the top? I forgot Now I can sit and watch the time fly And I'll feel better when tears have gone by I'll never again be blindsided by fate The future will have to wait I only have time for today As long as I can delay Makin' a Plan Makin' a Plan Makin' a Plan Makin' a Plan
