So they told you about the future baby They read it in your palm They knew it so well It seemed like a spell It was the calm before the storm You wish you never met this gipsy woman Lookin' in het crystal ball Sayin' you're stuck You ran outta luck And you're headed for your fall Life will never be again Like it was before Chorus: It's only a dream, Nothin' serious Fortune tellers are liars Tell you how to raise a fortune baby Here right in your ears Don't be hostile Learn how to smile and try to face your fears Nobody can make you happy so I'll Tell you as a friend The past is the past the present don't last And the future's in your hands Life is what you make of it Till the bitter end
