lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I set food up for breakfast this morning
I saw I ran out of eggs for you~
So I looked for the eggs we had in storage
but we ran out of the extra ones, too!

Every time I prep our food

I'm hoping! (The store's open)
Hoping! (That I'll find them)
Hoping! (You won't notice)

Before you woke up, I went to the store
Wishing that I won't forget the eggs anymo~ore
(ye~ah)
no chance! (no way)
nuh-uh!

Making my purchase and ru~nning home
I prayed that you haven't wo~oken up just yet!
And so...
Before dawn, I got back, and no-one knew I was even gone!


[Chorus]
I set my goals with vigor!
I'll try to be~ the best
Eleanor Forte in ev~e~ry way

I wanna be there for you
So you can count on me when I say:
I'll be there for you everyday!


[Verse 2]
When we work I try to stay on the schedule
I've never made someone late before
But I forgot we were meeting at sunset
When I found out, I bolt right out the door!

Every time I feel at ease

There's panic! (Sudden plan change)
Panic! (Running, running)
Panic! (Hope I'll make it!)

Right past the lake and beyond the trees
I ran so hard that my head was touching my knee~s
(ye~ah)
no chance! (no way)
nuh-uh!

It's almost time for our scheduled date
Only a little bit after Eight
And so... here I am...
Past the crowd, on the dime, I've arrived, barely on time!


[Chorus]
I set my goals with vigor!
I'll try to be~ the best
Eleanor Forte in ev~e~ry way

I wanna be there for you
So you can count on me when I say:
I'll be there for you everyday!


[Instrumental Break]


[Verse 3]
On eve~ry Tuesday each week in my schedule
I take a trip to a nearby gym
Hoping I don't see a friend back from high school,
I stepped inside with a face full of grim!?!

Then you looked this way and star-ted

Calling! (I can't hear you!)
Calling! (You're mistaken!)
Calling! (C'mon, you've got the wrong person! gaaAAUGH!!)

I said that I'm only helping out
You didn't buy it and clearly you're filled wi~ith do~ubt
(ye~ah)
.... Hey, wait!
You're wrong! (Len: "Uhh... you sure about that?")

Saying that I shouldn't work so~ hard
You always somehow catch me o~ff guard
And with that said
and a sigh of relief, I feel glad that you saw past my lie


[Chorus]
I set my goals with vigor!
I'll try to be~ the best
Eleanor Forte in ev~e~ry way

I wanna be there for you
So you can count on me when I say:
I'll be there for you everyday!
