Lyrics
Have a knack of knowing things before they happen A E C G I could see what will be before it occurs Can't forecast the wind direction, Or even who'll win an election Then again, I don't get hit by opening doors I wake a minute before the alarm sounds Go to the door before the bell chimes I could tell you when a bulb will pop, To the second when the rain will stop These are the kind of things I sense before their time Some kind of psychic F Am Not just a parlor game But my predictions are so lame F Am E Why can't I foresee Dm Earthquakes and such F Am My visions of the future don't mean much Dm F E I'm a modern seer of the ordinary An oracle of things around the house Don't ask how long you'll live, Your destiny's not mine to give Can't even see who's cheating on their spouse Some kind of psychic F Am Not some Vegas trick Too bad my predictions don't mean dick F Am E Why can't I foresee Dm Earthquakes and such F Am My visions of the future don't mean much Dm F E To see the numbers of the lottery Am F C D which runner' will win the race Will the market be bull or bear Who's going to win, show, or place With all these visions filling up my head It'd be nice to know how I should bet Why no visions of the finish line or which team will cover the spread Am F C G E I've racked my brain plotting and scheming How to take advantage of this skill When I think there must be use, Beyond my being amused Never seem to see just how I will I could tell you tomorrow you'll burn the toast Next week, get a flat when driving to work You'd think my friends would be amazed, Impressed by my farseeing gaze Strangely, they look at me like I'm just a jerk
