Plan Ahead - Allan Sherman

Plan ahead

Plan ahead

That's what the wise man said

Success is hard to win but you can win it

If you do a lot of thinking in advance

And make the necessary

Preparations and don't leave

Everything to be crowded into the very last minute

Plan ahead

In advance

Don't leave a thing to chance

And if you want to wind up rich and famous

Just be careful and meticulous in everything you do

And just make sure

Your work is not slipshod or

Sloppy or negligent or else people will go around

Saying you are an

Ignoramus

Soso

Insist on absolute perfection

And do all your things perfectly

If you strive day and night

In a long time you might

Be almost as perfect as me

As I

For the toughest things in life are never easy

Where's the next part of the music

Who's got the next part of the music

I got it I got it

Oh thanks

Plan ahead

Plan ahead

Do what the wise man said

Just remember in a thousand years we'll all be dead

So plan plan ahead

Oh the wise man's dead but before he died he said

Plan ahead plan ahead plan ahead
