Friends on the Other Side

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!
 (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 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, Lawrence?
 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
 (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 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 lil' honey whose daddy 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 you need
 And when I looked into your future
 It's the green that I see!
 On you little man, I don't want to 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!)
 Hush...
