In reality, not the best plan... A progressive rock introduction, leading into an upbeat song.
lyrics
He has a plan, To be happy any way he can
More money is the key, he thinks
So, he pursues, to try to buy a way out of his blues
And more is the key, says he
So he presses on in his quest, to get a lot of only the best
But his blues remain, it seems
So he gets more and more, thinking he'll have happiness in store
But stress is the prize he finds
When he was younger, he had dreams
Hopes, wishes, fantasies of where he'd be
So much he longed for, thought he'd do
But life squeezed it out of him, nothing new
What could he do
But have a plan to be happy any way he can?
More money being the means, it seems
If you choose money as a way out of your blues
You'll lose in the end, my friend
Happiness is not what you'll find, only an emptiness inside
And an aching for more and more
What have we learned from this tale?
Happiness and joy are not for sale
Money pales when compared with love.
