LET”S PUT THESE PLANS INTO EFFECT written by Sheldon Manoo (1999)


A saw an ad for a beautiful house and land for sale down in the valley
So I checked it out and it looks like we could afford it baby
We been suffocating ourselves paying rent for this broken down apartment
But , at least we kept our heads on baby!
We worked our tails off in the past few years and kept saving, saving, saving,
And now it’s raining, Let’s stop complaining
Let’s go down to the bank baby, let’s sign some papers
In this marriage it was gonna come to this sooner or later
We been making plans so long to do this and do that and the other
Well I think we got enough money in the bank to make a good start
Let’s do just that!
Let’s put these plans into effect now baby
Let’s do it now before time slips by us
If you wanna reach somewhere you gotta take that first step and that’s so true baby
And you and I we got love on our side
So let’s make something of our dreams and put these plans into effect now woh, woh, woh!

SOLO

I see the future and you and I are there and all’s well and good
And we got two children and we’re raising them as good parents should
Taking time to see to their needs and to listen to their cries
Cause we can’t let them drift from us baby!
Tell me what’s the sense in having goals if you aern’t reachin for them
And what’s the use in having opportunities and ain’t taking them
You and me we got a good thing going and it only gets better
And sure ther’ll be some bad days but I’ll never hurt ya’
The only fights you’ll have to fight are the fights I’m fighting too
To see that no one takes what is ours and get between our family values
(Spoken: Cause That’s Priceless!”
Oh let’s put these plans into effect now baby
Don’t let the words of others drive you crazy
Everything is a risk, but
You must believe this!
What’s meant for us will be for us
We just can’t let this slip away from us
Let’s put these plans into effect woman
I won’t ever let go of your hand

INTERLUDE

Change is sometimes frightening
But what’s the sense in living
If you don’t like the way you’re living now
You gotta make that move somehow
Let’s get to doing it baby, let’s put these plans into effect
Can’t keep hanging on forever, you never know what to expect
So let’s do what we been longing to do
Only you and I could make our dreams come true oh

Let’s put these plans
Let’s put all of our plans
Let’s put these plans
OH all the All the plans
Let’s get our plans baby
Let’s put our plans lady
All the plans we ever had
All the things we talked over and over
Let’s put our plans
Yeah put all of our plans
Baby let’s put these plans
Into effect right now
Into effect right now
Let’s do it now!
Put our plans into effect
Let us do it correct
Let’s make our dreams come true
Yeah me me and you you
Let’s put these plans into effect!
            Let’s put these plans into effect!
                        Let’s put these plans into effect!
Right NOW!
