Testo Mirror On The Wall - Bruce Hornsby
Testo della canzone Mirror On The Wall (Bruce Hornsby), tratta dall'album Halcyon Days
I'd like to try throwing the I-Ching
I'd like to try some analyzing my writing
I'd like to see what's written on the crystal stones
And see what happens if I put on my
Turban and start throwing bones, hey
Maybe I'll be a gofer getting bagels for the UN
Maybe I'll cruise bars in futile search of perfect tens
And maybe I'll be the legendary scandal ridden pope
Keeping up a solid citizen front when I'm really just bought and sold
Mirror mirror on the wall
Palm readings and crystal balls
It's obvious for all to see
How uncertain it will be
And handwriting and dice you roll
I-Ching and crystal stones
And tea leaves and astrology
Get someone to interpret your dreams
Still I don't know where we'll be
Will you take this ride with me?
Maybe I'll be a Doctor, ophthalmologist checking out eyes
Maybe I'll get a job making little skinny curly fries
I might feel important as a security guard
And I'd love to lean on you when times get too hard, hey
Maybe I'll be the overweight ex-jock chasing skirts
Telling my old stories, you know the older you get the better you were
You could be my right hand, tell me when I'm a joke
And maybe there will be some times when we
Feel like we're not just blowing smoke, mmm
Mirror mirror on the wall
Palm readings and crystal balls
It's obvious for all to see
How uncertain it will be
And handwriting and dice you roll
I-Ching and crystal stones
And tea leaves and astrology
Get someone to interpret your dreams
Still I don't know where we'll be
Will you take this ride with me?
With me
Maybe I'll invent the nuclear magnetic resonance stone
Or create a synthetic hue for you or major chemical breakthroughs
Take a map of your genome and give directions to a friend
And develop a crumb-crisp coating for
A new cake and ice cream blend, hey
Mirror mirror on the wall
Palm readings and crystal balls
It's obvious for all to see
How uncertain it will be
Fortune tellers and mirrored walls
Tarot cards and Ouija boards
And tea leaves and astrology
Why don't you come and lay with me?
Still I wonder where we'll be
Will you take this ride?
Will you take this ride with me?
With me
