Four Mile Circus - Tales from the Big Top

Fate of the Fortune Teller

And the tales that she told
When you crossed her palm with gold
Saying "what do you want to hear?"
"And just let's make this clear"
But the hurt in her eye
Hides just one more disguise
Of the fate of the fortune teller

How'd you end up here
When all the glitter disappears
Found drinking 'round in bars
When you used to read the stars
Could your future really be told
And what did it show
But the fate of the fortune teller

And then you dealt your cards
To prophesize is an art
Tell people what they wanna hear
To dry away their tears
But what we don't know
Is this is just a show?
And the fate of the fortune teller

Finally, here today
In the carnival you play
Keep the wolf from the door
Selling stories and folk lore
This means everything to you
Turning lies into truth's
And the fate of the fortune teller
The fate of the fortune teller
