i never thought such a thing could happen to me.
i always thought that fortune’s a given thing.
but then one day you lay there right before me,
in the middle of the table, wrapped up in golden foil.
i couldn’t resist your shine and your oriental charm.
i didn’t expect that a touch of you could do me harm.
i picked you up and started to unwrap you.
i broke your neck and then i pulled out your soul.
oh, what have i done?
the fake fortune cookie told me what i didn’t want.
what could this mean for me?
oh, what have i done?
the fake fortune cookie told me something wrong.
and now my life isn’t what it was before i broke
the fake fortune cookie.
with the bloom of your wisdom unfolded in my hand
i saw that it was too late for a second chance.
i couldn’t believe what i read on that piece of paper.
but i knew this could only mean no good for me.
oh, what have i done?
the fake fortune cookie told me what i didn’t want.
what could this mean for me?
oh, what have i done?
the fake fortune cookie told me something wrong.
and now my life isn’t what it was before i broke
the fake fortune cookie.
