It's nice to see you and you've come so far
You don't have to tell me how you are
And it is already written on your wrinkled brow
It's been foreshadowed by a big black cloud
Is there nothing I can do
To help you carry that weight?
Is there nothing I can say?
Do you think that this might be a case?
Of a self-fulfilling prophecy
I don't know
A self-fulfilling prophecy
Could it be that your personal health
Was inflicted upon yourself?
Just as well, you can't live in reverse
How could it get any worse?
Just as well, you can't live in reverse
How could it get any worse?
You knew that it'd be bad
You were saying that
How could you know that it would be this bad?
You told us you'd fall down
And in spite of it
You had to go fall
You deserve the highest highs
Your days shining like a diamond
You might catch yourself a bad surprise
How can we get you to buy it?
What can we do?









A self-fulfilling prophecy, I don't know
A self-fulfilling prophecy
Throw a penny and I'm wishing well
And you do wish on yourself
I wish you well
You can't live in reverse
I couldn't get any worse
I wish you well
You can't live in reverse
I couldn't get any worse
You knew that it'd be bad
You were saying that
How could you know that it would be this bad
You told us you'd fall
You told us you'd fall
Down and in spite of it all
You had to go fall
