That's not a plan

That’s not a plan To move us away from Manhattan Where we have no family or friends Living by the trees and the mountains Why do I feel I’ll be lurching from place to place Away from the comfort of the skyscraper You say we’ve gotta scrimp and save But honey, that’s no fire escape That’s not a plan That’s not a plan Seattle, no You’re outta control What good could that do for us Are our worries so high up in the sky That we’d leave our life in the Big Apple Maybe New York doesn’t mean anything to you But it’s a life and a dream for me Thinking of our family I just can’t entertain this bad news I would move anywhere with you But right now, no That’s not a plan To move us away from Manhattan Why do I feel I’ll be lurching from place to place Away from the comforts of the skyscraper Sayin' we gotta scrimp and save But honey, that’s no fire escape That’s not a plan That's not a plan Seattle, no You’re outta control What good’s that move for us Are our worries so high up in the sky To say good-bye to the Big Apple Maybe New York doesn’t mean anything to you But for me it's my dream come true Thinking of our family walking down Fifth Avenue It's too much to entertain your bad news That’s not a plan I would move anywhere with you But right now, no There's nowhere I'd rather go Seeing polar bears in the Central Park Zoo I’ve thought about it My husband And that’s not a plan But right now, no There's nowhere I'd rather go Seeing polar bears in the Central Park Zoo I’ve thought about it My husband And that’s not a plan That's not a plan I'll die on the isle of Manhattan Sorry my man That's not a plan [end]
