I knew it wouldn't work out
So I close my eyes instead
Didn't wanna read between the lines
It came to and end, I realized
That I should have been more clever
I shoulda known it better
There are things in life
That you've got to figure out

Well, if you play with fire you will get burned
I, learned my lesson and yes it hurts
Don't, play with fire, don't play with fire
Don't play with fire
If you play with fire you will get burned
I, learned my lesson and yes it hurts
Don't, play with fire, don't play with fire
Don't play with fire

Now I got no time to play around
No time to lose
Something you got to learn by doing
(Learn by doing)
When your heart says yes and your mind says no
It's time to take a little control
Do it for yourself, do it for no one else

'Cause all you got to love, love yourself
And all you got to trust, trust yourself
And all you got to appreciate, appreciate yourself
It's better if you know yourself

If you play with fire you will get burned
I, learned my lesson and yes it hurts
Don't, play with fire, don't play with fire
Don't play with fire
If you play with fire you will get burned
I, learned my lesson and yes it hurts
Don't, play with fire, don't play with fire
Don't play with fire

Most of the time, we know what is right
Yet we do what is wrong, 'cause we do what we like
Your mama, she told you, be honest, be good
She utters the way you would
Want them to treat you, the devil misleads you
Temptation is king in this jungle that we living in
But human we all the same
Father, forgive me
Bless my heart and keep it far from temptation

Well, if you play with fire you will get burned
I, learned my lesson and yes it hurts
Don't, play with fire, don't play with fire
Don't play with fire
If you play with fire you will get burned
I, learned my lesson and yes it hurts
Don't, play with fire, don't play with fire
Don't play with fire
