We wrote a song Together? (Yeah) What's it called? (Is it called "Period"?) No, it's called "five year plan. " Wanna hear it? Is there words? (Yeah, there's words)
Mom and Daddy crying' Maxima flyin' I-70 Eastbound Day one of me tryin' To make it in my twenties Put piano in the country Make my own name and some money in a hurry Told everybody wasn't gettin' married 'til I'm thirty
Then you had to throw a wrench and a little picket fence Into all the boxes I was checkin' And goals that I was settin' Now all of a sudden, I got a ring on my finger Think bein' a singer just got knocked of the top of my list 'Cause, baby, love don't fit in a five-year plan
Right around a decade Start to make a little headway Champagne on the porch swing Limousine in the driveway 'bout to crack the glass ceilin' This small-town girl's feelin' Pretty independent, got a couple hits And I'm thirty seconds in to my fifteen minutes when
You had to throw a wrench and a little picket fence Into all the boxes I was checkin' And goals that I was settin' Now all of a sudden, I got a boy named Ford And winnin' awards ain't anywhere near the top of my list A couple kids don't fit in a five-year plan
In a five-year plan
I was so on a mission, tunnel vision When the plot started twistin' First kiss and if that girl only knew How close she came from missin' You You
And all of a sudden, we're on a bus at a show And somebody says somethin' and the next thing you know That guitar is in your hand And this song is so much better than My five-year plan
