Lesson learnt

('Ey)
('Ey 'ey 'ey 'ey 'ey 'ey!)
You would've thought that I'd have learnt this all by now
It seems that I'm here again, some way, somehow
Every time the same old thing comes back around
If you don't learn to swim, then you'll sink, and then you'll drown

I guess it's a lesson learnt
If you play with fire then baby you will burn
I guess it's a lesson learnt
If you play with fire then you'll probably burn

Is it my fault if I choose to ignore
The things that you've told me once or twice before?
Maybe I'd rather not understand
The things that I, I don't want as a man

I guess it's a lesson learnt
If you play with fire then baby you will burn
I guess it's a lesson learnt
If you play with fire then you'll probably burn

Won't you teach it to me?
('Ey 'ey 'ey 'ey 'ey 'ey!)
Won't you teach it to me?
