I´d like to try throwing the I Ching
I´d like to try someone 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 gopher
And getting bagels for the U.N.
Maybe I´ll cruise bars
In futile search of perfect 10´s
And maybe I´ll be the legendary
Scandal-ridden pol
Keeping up my 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 rolls
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´ll be some times
When we feel like we´re not just blowing smoke
Mirror, mirror on the wall

Palm readings and crystal balls
It´s obvious for all to see
How uncertain it will be
Handwriting and dice rolls
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 stomp
Or create a synthetic hue for you
Or maybe chemical breakthroughs
Take a map of 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?
