Sloan - Fortune Teller Lyrics

Sloan Lyrics

"Fortune Teller"

As per my wife
I'm forever taking stock
Saying what need not be said
I'm just trying to be nice
But she's tired of all the talk
Maybe part of why I say it's
'Cause I'd like to hear it

Can't help it I'm a fortune teller
I'll positively tell this town
I'm working on a new best seller
The kind that you can't put down

Like an old knife
I cannot cut like I once could
I wonder would I even want to
Bad, I could be
Maybe you miss that about me
But if kindness is what's killing you
They best arrest me

Can't help it I'm a fortune teller
I'll positively tell this town
I'm working on a new best seller
The kind that you can't put down

When you love somebody
When you love somebody tell them

After I'm dead
Who'll say what need not be said?
Who'll remind you they still love you?
Abandoned the book
But on my headstone if you look
I made sure to have it say I love you
So you can't miss it
You better visit!

Can't help it I'm a fortune teller
I'll positively tell this town
I'm working on a new best seller
The kind that you can't put down

Can't help it I'm a fortune teller
I'll positively tell this town
This town
I'm working on a new best seller
The kind that you can't put down
When you love somebody
Can't help it I'm a fortune teller
When you love someone
I'll positively tell this town
I'm working on a new best seller
The kind that you can't put down
The kind that you can't put down
