Makin’ A Plan

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 'til 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
