Man With A Plan
Written by Wilson/Genauer
Lyrics
I was a man with a plan and I landed in New York City
I saw a world that that unfurled and taught me the meaning of haste
I found a well-heeled girl and I thought that she looked pretty
I opened my heart to her and she read it on my face.
{Chorus}
You might as well as well accept the rest and not expect to prosper
When you're hiding from the sun
Living fast the cold contrast it fuels my fascination
Like a breath before the plunge
I took car to bar and ordered myself whisky.
You know it’s my drink of choice and it fills me full of charm
I know I’ve had too much when my head gets soft and dizzy
But if you ask my wife she’d say it does more good than harm
{Chorus)
{Chorus 2}
I came out of the park that day and I wavered in the place I stood
Living deep in golden city in a way I never thought I could
I came out of the park that day and I saw it with my waking eyes
My breath grew short and my heart rate quickened in response to my own surprise
There was a fuss on the bus cause someone had got busted
I got splashed as it passed and it clattered down the road
Well I’d seen worse and I cursed and I swore there was no justice
And that I’d leave this town before my heart grew old
{Chorus 2}
{Chorus 2}
{Chorus 2}
