Nothing Ever Goes As Planned Lyrics - Paradise Theater - Styx

Written by dennis deyoung 

Lead vocals by dennis deyoung 

 

What'cha going to do when the sun goes down tonight 

You'll hit the same old clubs, rap that same old trash 

That's right 

You've got them real silk shirts and them baggy pants 

Dago shoes in the colors that match 

But the girls are acting bored 

And you're feeling like you're going to lose 

You've got the g.q. blues 

 

You get up every morning and you go to work each day 

(you go to work, you go to work, you go to work) 

Been doing the same damn job for ten long years this may 

(you've got to work, you've got to work, you've got to work) 

You've been working and saving for your jamaican dream 

Paradise is waiting across the sea 

But when your plane lands montego turns to monsoon 

You've got the island blues 

 

'cause, nothing ever goes as planned 

It's a hell of a notion 

Even pharaohs turn to sand 

Like a drop in the ocean 

You're so together and you act so civilized 

But every time that things go wrong you're still surprised 

You've done your duty, you've paid a fortune in dues 

Still got those mother nature's blues 

 

I strut around the stage like a little king tonight 

They'll scream for every word and every note, that's right 

But when the show is over and I'm all alone 

Can't reach my baby on the telephone 

And everywhere I look mr. loneliness is in the news 

I've got the big star blues 

 

Boy, nothing ever goes as planned 

It's a hell of a notion 

Even pharaohs turn to sand 

Like a drop in the ocean 

I'm so together and I act so civilized 

But every time that things go wrong 

I'm still surprised 

I've done my duty and paid a fortune in dues 

Still got them mother nature's blues
