could you have a clue just what you're doing to me?
you know me far too well
it's a sting
and life is a carnival but we're the next unmentioned
you picked a fine
fine way to say goodbye
as if that's the only trick to the prize
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
and i could never learn
you wanna play
you get burned
you taught me the stiff defences
but you kept the secrets
and you with the patience of a clock
now i'm wound up so tight
and sleep's cold comfort
the days so long
but bittersweet
the time on my hands slips
trips up my feet
oh
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
and i could never learn
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
and i could never learn
you wanna play
you get burnt
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
yeah
and i could never learn
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
i'm on the wrong side now
and i could never learn
and i could never learn
you wanna play
you get burned
