Predictions Lyrics

Suzanne Vega

Let's tell the future Let's see how it's been done By numbers, by mirrors, by water By dots made at random on paper By salt, by dice, by meal, by mice By dough of cakes, by sacrificial fire By fountains, by fishes, writing in ashes Birds, herbs, smoke from the altar
A suspended ring or the mode of laughin' Pebbles drawn from a heap One of these things will tell you somethin'
Let's tell the future Let's see how it's been done By dreams, by the features, by letters By droppin' hot wax into water By nails reflecting the rays of the sun By walking in a circle, by red hot iron By passages in books A balanced hatchet
A suspended ring or the mode of laughin' Pebbles drawn from a heap One of these things will tell you somethin'
Let's tell the future Let's see how it's been done By numbers, by mirrors, by water By dots made at random on paper By salt, by dice, by meal, by mice By dough of cakes, by sacrificial fire By fountains, by fishes, writing in ashes Birds, herbs, smoke from the altar
Let's tell the future Let's see how it's been done Let's see how it's been done Let's see how it's been done
