THE PLANNERS DREAM GOES WRONG by THE JAM
Written by Paul Weller
From the LP 'The Gift' (Polydor, 1982)
Personally, I think this song is well underrated.

BbLetting loose the Flunatics -
BbWasn't the greatest Fof ideas.
CGiving them plans and Fmoney to squander -
Should have been Ebthe Dmworst of our Ffears.
BbAnd the dream life, Fluxury living
BbWas a pleasant Fnumber ten whim,
CBut somewhere down the Flines of prduction,
EbThey left out Dmhuman Bbneeds.
AThey were gonna build communities -
It was Dmgoing to be Cpie in Athe sky -
But the Cmpiss stench hallways and Fbroken down lifts say,
The Ebplanners Dmdream went Bbwrong.
F Bb (x2)
AIf people were meant to live in boxes -
DmGod would have Cgiven Athem string -
CmTo tie around themFselves at bed time -
And stop their Ebdreams falling Dmthrough the Bbceiling.
BbAnd the public Fschoolboy computers -
BbKeep spewing Fout our future -
The Bbhouse in the country designs the F14th floor.
BbOld Mrs. Smith don't get Fout much more.
BbCoitus interruptus 'cos of Fnext doors rows.
And Bbyour washing gets nicked when the Flights go out.
CBaby's scream in their Fnightmare throng -
But the Ebplanners just get emDmbarrased when their Ebplans Dmgo Bbwrong.
Ah, the Ebplanners get emDmbarrased when their Ebplans Dmgo Bbwrong.
Ah, the Ebplanners get emDmbarrased when their Ebplans Dmgo Bbwrong.
