Fortune Teller by Julie the Bruce at Scollan Ranch Oct 18, 2013



Lyrics and music by Julie Bruce
You can take the word of the fortune teller
she will tell you what you want to hear
as you take out coins to pay her
your fortune calls her name

what did you ask the fortune teller
what did you decide to pay her
did she tell you what you wanted
or about your fears

She asks you a few questions, looks at your
crystal ball reflection
as your life unfolds before her
she laughs, and jingles coins in her hand

a coin for the dreams of the suffering
a coin for the dreams of joy
a coin for the dreams of the wanton, virgin, sinner, and more
a coin for those in joy a coin for the suffering
a coin boy for all things in between
a coin for the fortune teller
tell her all your dreams
tell her all your fears and schemes
she knows so much about these things
a coin for your future boy
a coin for your future joy
spare a coin for the fortune teller
tell her everything

What did you ask the fortune teller
did you ask her who you'd marry
did you ask her when you'd die
or when you'd make it big

she asks you a few questions
looks at your crystal ball reflection
as your life unfolds before her she laughs
and jingles coins in her hand...

a coin for the dreams of the suffering
a coin for the dreams of joy
a coin for the dreams of the wanton, virgin, sinner, and more
a coin for those in joy a coin for the suffering
a coin boy for all things in between
a coin for the fortune teller
tell her all your dreams
tell her all your fears and schemes
she knows so much about these things
a coin for your future joy
a coin for your future boy
spare a coin for the fortune teller, tell her everything
give all that you can boy she knows if you spare a coin
she knows your fortune well your fortune will be told in hell
As you leave the carnival the wheels do turn the clouds do smile
and with those words inside your head you'll remember them
until you're dead
you're whole life will center in on those words the fortune teller said
when you look into the mirror you'll remember your reflection
in her crystal ball of lies where your dreams began to die
dreams that you had put aside all the dreams you forgot
the fire eater burned them up the elephants they trampled them
the carousel made them spin knife throwers wheel began to turn
fortune or torment begin here and they're words you paid to hear
 so tip the fortune teller well your true fortune is told in hell!
