Suzanne Vega — Predictions

Let's tell the future Let's see how it's been done By numbers. By mirrors. By water By dots made at random on paper By salt. By dice By meal. By mice By dough of cakes By sacrificial fire By fountains. By fishes Writing in ashes Birds. Herbs Smoke from the altar A suspended ring or the mode of laughing Pebbles drawn from a heap One of these things Will tell you something Let's tell the future Let's see how it's been done By dreams. By the features. By letters By dropping hot wax into water By nails reflecting the rays of the sun By walking in a circle By red hot iron By passages in books A balanced hatchet A suspended ring or the mode of laughing Pebbles drawn from a heap One of these things Will tell you something Let's tell the future Let's see how it's been done How it's been done
