Don't you disrespect me, little man
Don't you derogate or deride!
You're in my world now, not your world
And I got friends on the other side
(He's got friends on the other side)
That's an echo, gentlemen
Just a little something we have here in Louisiana
A little parlor trick, don't worry
Sit down at my table, put your mind at ease
If you relax, it will enable me to do anything I please
I can read your future, I can change around some, too
I look deep into your heart and soul
You do have a soul, don't you, Lawrence?
Make your wildest dreams come true!
I got Vodoo, I got hoodoo, I got things I aint even tried!
And I got friends on the other side
(He's got friends on the other side!)
The cards, the cards, the cards will tell
The past, the present, and the future as well
The cards, the cards, just take three
Take a little trip into your future with me!
Now you young man are from across the sea
You've come from two long lines of royalty
I'm a royal myself on my mother's side
Your life style's high!
But your funds are low
You need to marry a little honey whose daddy got dough
Mom and dad cut you off, huh pretty boy?
Now y'all better get hitched, but hitching ties you down-
You just wanna be free, hop from place to place
But freedom, takes green, heh heh heh
It's the green, it's the green, it's the green you need!
And when I look into your future is the green that I see
On you, little man, I don't want wanna waste much time
You've been pushed around all your life!
You've been pushed around by your mother
And your sister and your brother
And if you was married
You'd be pushed around by your wife
But in your future, the you I see
Is exactly the man you always wanted to be
Shake my hand
Come on, boys
Won't you shake a poor sinner's hand?
Yes!
Are you ready?!
(Are you ready?!)
Are you- ready?!
Transformation Central!
(Transformation Central!)
Reformation Central!
(Reformation Central!)
Transmodification Central!
Can you feel it?
You're changing, you're changing, you're changing alright!
I hope you're satisfied
But, if you ain't, don't blame me
You can blame my friends on the other side, ah ha ha ha ha!
You got what you wanted!
But you lost what you had!
Hush
