As Saul before you
You want an answer now
Ask the dead about the future
Thinking they've learned a lot while in the ground
Read the tea leaves, read the stars, read Egyptian tarot cards
Count the numbers, cast the pearls, analyze the fallen bones
(Analyze the fallen bones)
With one hand on the liver and one hand on the ouija board
You pretend to have control
These things give you a feeling of higher purpose
But you interpret them as you will
You feel you get the best of both worlds
Read the tea leaves, read the stars, read Crowley's tarot cards
Count the numbers, cast the pearls, you see the future in the palm of your hand
(See the future in the palm of your hand)
Let's stop pretending there is anything to this
You see what you want to see
Like looking at an ink blot
You can only see your thoughts
The future, in the palm of your hands
The future, in the palm of your hands
If you can tell the future, and you consult the dead
Are you not already dead (as Saul was before you)?
You're speaking to a crystal ball but precious stone cannot hear
You're scrying on deaf ears
You're scrying on deaf ears
You're scrying on deaf ears
Your precious stones cannot hear
You're scrying on deaf ears
