Down in the ocean is a little catfish He used to be my best friend in a childish wish Up in the sky there is a big fat bird His wings cast shadows where no sound is heard Far in the distance is a story book casting spells oneveryone who doesn't look On the sand is a castle with a king inside andhe has forgotten how to kiss his bride and I got runes in my bag and a crystal ball, you can ask me anything, I will predict it all But it's up to you if it's coming true - it's your own decision what you're gonna do I'm a fortune teller and it's hard to be decent in a world which is haunting me Down in the alley is a sick old man and he keeps his brain in a frying pan Floating on the river is a paper boat It's delivering wisdom to the ones who know And on top of the mall the witches ride their brooms, there ain't no more ups and downs and there ain't no doom A young girl is dancing upon a star and then she gets run over by a model car I got runes in my bag and premonition inside and fear is on my shoulder and the light's too bright I foresee what's gonna happen, but it's up to you, you can believe it ot not, what's true is always true It's hard to be a fortune teller anyway, your world is haunting me, your value is decay Merlin's grandson made satellite which can light the whole world in all parts at night and now the ravens sing it in their croaking voice: you must look, you must work, you must, you've got no choice The children can't write and they can't even speak and they can only see when they're watching TV They got a button on their back and a little key and robots produce them in a factory I still got runes in my bag and a crystal ball - my cards on the table trying to warn you all and the nothing in the world is such an awful lot that you ain't really got a thing of those you think you got I'm a fortune teller and it's hard to be decent in a world which is haunting me I'm a fortune teller and it's hard to be friendly in your world world because it's haunting me I'm a fortune teller and it's hard to be - to be in a world which keeps on haunting me I'm a fortune teller and it's hard to be - your world is haunting me, yeah it keeps haunting me |
