The best-laid plans of minister and man
Cockatoo in god-forsaken land

Have everything you need
The finest finery
Two days of every week
Are yours alone to keep

The longer that you stay
The more that slips away
Yeah, the best-laid plans of minister and man
Cockatoo in god-forsaken land

Come back here tonight
To get the readings right
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
And if you want your pay
Well, you won't be sick today

So labor endlessly
And embrace mortality
Oh, the best-laid plans of minister and man
Cockatoo in god-forsaken land

The best-laid plans of minister and man
Cockatoo in god-forsaken land
The best-laid plans of minister and man
Cockatoo in god-forsaken land
