The Backup Plan Lyrics

It's time, young man

You're old enough to understand

You've worked too hard

To give up on the liberal arts

Wont you open your eyes

It'd be a shame to give up all you have

And please don't you jump off this train

'Cause once you do there ain't no coming back

It's alright, young man

I'm sure you'll get a second chance

Go on, let go

But don't give up on that backup plan

You know we just want the best

Don't nobody wanna see you on your own

So might we suggest

Don't be so set on doing it alone

Won't you open your eyes

It'd be a shame to give up all you have

And please don't you jump off this train

'Cause once you do there ain't no coming back

Be wise, young man

Be sure that this is what you want

Don't come crawling back

We told you this would fall apart

Won't you open your eyes

It'd be a shame to give up all you have

And please don't you jump off this train

'Cause once you do there ain't no coming back

And please don't you jump off this train

'Cause once you do there ain't no coming back
