The Wrong Side Now

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
Yeh 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 (I could never learn)
And I could never learn (I could never learn)
You wanna play, you get burned
