Mirror On The Wall - Bruce Hornsby (布鲁斯·宏斯比)[00:00:00]
I'd like to try throwing the I-Ching[00:00:33]
I'd like to try some analyzing my writing[00:00:38]
I'd like what's written on the crystal stones[00:00:43]
And see what happens if I put on my turban and start throwing bones hey [00:00:48]
Maybe I'll be a gofer getting bagels for the UN[00:01:05]
Maybe I'll cruise bars in futile search of perfect tens[00:01:10]
And maybe I'll be the legendary scandal-ridden pol[00:01:15]
Keeping up my solid citizen front when I'm really just bought and sold[00:01:21]
Mirror mirror on the wall[00:01:26]
Palm readings and crystal balls[00:01:29]
It's obvious for all to see[00:01:31]
How uncertain it will be[00:01:34]
And hand-writing and dice rolls[00:01:37]
I-Ching and crystal stones[00:01:39]
And tea leaves and astrology[00:01:42]
Get someone to interpret your dreams[00:01:45]
Still I don't know where we'll be[00:01:48]
Will you take this ride with me[00:01:50]
Maybe I'll be a doctor ophthalmologist checking out eyes[00:02:04]
Maybe I'll get a job making little skinny curly fries[00:02:09]
I might feel important as a security guard[00:02:15]
And I'd love to lean on you when times get too hard hey [00:02:20]
Maybe I'll be the overweight ex-jock chasing skirts[00:02:26]
Tell 'em my old stories you know the older you get the better you were[00:02:31]
You can be my right hand tell me when I'm a joke[00:02:37]
And maybe they'll be some times when we feel like we're not just blowing smoke[00:02:41]
Mirror mirror on the wall[00:02:47]
Palm readings and crystal balls[00:02:49]
It's obvious for all to see[00:02:52]
How uncertain it will be[00:02:55]
And hand-writing and dice rolls[00:02:58]
I-Ching and crystal stones[00:03:00]
And tea leaves and astrology[00:03:03]
Get someone to interpret your dreams[00:03:05]
Still I don't know where we'll be[00:03:08]
Will you take this ride with me [00:03:11]
Maybe I'll invent the nuclear magnetic resonance stomp[00:03:38]
Or create a synthetic hue for you[00:03:43]
Or make chemical breakthroughs[00:03:45]
Take a map of the genome and get directions to a friend[00:03:49]
And develop a crumb crisp coating for a new cake and ice cream blend hey [00:03:53]
Mirror mirror on the wall[00:03:59]
Palm readings and crystal balls[00:04:01]
It's obvious for all to see[00:04:04]
How uncertain it will be[00:04:07]
Fortune tellers and mirrored walls[00:04:09]
Tarot cards and Ouija boards[00:04:12]
And tea leaves and astrology[00:04:15]
Why don't you come and play with me [00:04:18]
Still I'll wonder where we'll be[00:04:20]
Will you take this ride [00:04:23]
Will you take this ride with me [00:04:26]
With me[00:04:33]
