I just placed myself at the top of the class because I didn't have to look up the word "foray."
I think it works - gives the song a positive, "I'm gonna go out and fix all this stuff in my life" kind of vibe.
It also works because it's just a fun word to say and even more fun to sing. Sometimes that's enough. There was a band back in the seventies who seemed to realize this. For instance, the song "Soley, Soley" doesn't say anything much - I guess it's someone's name - but those syllables just feel good as you sing them. Foray is a word like that.
Not saying that your lyric doesn't make sense. It does and I dig those internal rhymes.
