Any ideas? I want them to sound like fortunes, so not just random lyrics. And I don’t need links to sites with lyrics, I need inspiration for which ones sound good enough, so your help is appreciated!
GREAT IDEA!
The Beatles’ lyrics are just so full of life that any–even the early "dumb" ones–would make fun fortunes.
"She loves you–yeah, yeah, yeah."
"Picture yourself on a boat on a river…"
"I don’t care to much for money, money can’t buy me love"
"Take a sad song and make it better."
"Everybody’s got something to hide ‘cept for me and my monkey"
"Why don’t we do it in the road" (An OBVIOUS one)
"If you want money for people with minds that hate,
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait."
"And in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make."
"Get back to where you once belonged"
"All you need is love" (Also obvious)
"Say the word, and you’ll be free"
"Life is very short, and there’s no time,
For fussing and fighting, my friend,"
Etc., etc.

You could use actual phrases from songs, like:
"The love you take is equal to the love you make"
Or you could parody : "You’ve been going in and out of style but you’re guaranteed to raise a smile"
or
"You keep all your money in a big brown bag inside the zoo"
or
Penny Lane is in your ears

I don’t care too much for money, money can’t buy me love
