Lyrics
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
I 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 minds at ease
If you relax, it will enable me to do
Anything I please
I can read your future
I can change it 'round some, too
I'll look deep into your heart and soul
You do have a soul, don't you, Laurence?
Make your wildest dreams come true
I got voodoo, I got hoodoo, I got things I ain't even tried
And I got friends on the other side
I 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 come from two long lines of royalty
I'm a royal myself on my mother's side
Your lifestyle's high, but your funds are low
You need to marry a little honey whose daddy's got dough
Mom and Dad cut you off, huh, playboy?
Now y'all gotta get hitched, but hitchin' ties you down
You just wanna be free, hop from place to place
But freedom takes green
It's the green, it's the green, it's the green that you need
And when I looked into your future, it's the green that I see
Oh, you little man don't wanna waste much time
You been pushed around all your life
You 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 the poor sinner's hand? Yes
Are you ready? (Are you ready?)
Are you ready?
Transformation central (Transformation central)
Reformation central (Reformation central)
Transmogrification central
Can you feel it?
You're changin', you're changin', you're changin' all right
I hope you're satisfied
But if you ain't, don't blame me
You can blame my friends on the other side
You got what you wanted
But you lost what you had
