Alleyman

I met a man in the alley
He said that my future he's seen
He said he'd show
If I wanted to know
What my destiny would come to be

I didn't think for a second
It took me no time to choose
Life would be snoring
Surpriseless and boring
If everything to come I knew

So I said don't tell me mister
Of that don't utter a word
I don't want to know that
Please don't you show that
Please take heed
Don't give me the blues

Then he looked at me and said son
Good choice oh my what a wise choice
It's best to know not what's to come
'till it's all said and done

Then said the man in the alley
I once was a kid on the rise
A man said he'd show
If I wanted to know
And I gave in and lost all surprise

He said that I would be a big star
He said I'd get out of this place
I took it for granted
Lost what was handed
And now I am stuck in this place

Then he looked at me and said son
You chose better than me you chose so well
It's best to know not what's to come
'till it's all said and done

Best not to know
What's to come
'Til it's all
Said and done
I don't wanna know
Until it's all
Said and done

I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know
