The Fortune-Teller
That wet day I entered a gypsy's room
She proclaimed that she my future would read
Over the next few days what would thus loom?
Hopes the prophesies won't fill me with dread.
She proclaimed that she my future would read
Concentrating into her crystal ball
Hopes the prophesies won't fill me with dread
I'm as impenetrable as a wall.
Concentrating into her crystal ball
She begins to receive some messages
I'm as impenetrable as a wall
She says I will come across savages.
She begins to receive some messages
She says my cash they will attempt to steal
She says I will come across savages
They'll try rob me to my very last meal.
She says my cash they will attempt to steal
But I won't any of it surrender
They'll try rob me to my very last meal
Yet I'll remain the avid defender.
But I won't any of it surrender...
I think to myself, 'All sorts of rubbish.'
Yet I'll remain the avid defender...
If it turns out it would me astonish.
I think to myself, 'All sorts of rubbish.'
When I got home thieves broke into my safe,
If it turns out it would me astonish
They took thousands of cash and my agrafe.
When I got home thieves broke into my safe
All of the fortune-teller's words came true
They took thousands of cash and my agrafe
For the cash was fake and they never knew.
All of the fortune-teller's words came true
It thus made the robbers easy to track
For the cash was fake and they never knew
When they fake cash spend, police will attack.
It thus made the robbers easy to track
Her oracles came true, I can't believe
When they fake cash spend, police will attack
Protected me in the way she'd perceive.
Her oracles came true, I can't believe
It could have been bad, it could have been doom,
Protected me in the way she'd perceive
