Stereo MC's - Playing With Fire
You're playing with fire
You're playing with fire
You could be one in a million
could be walking down the street
just like any civilian
you could be amphibian
but it still don't mean
that you aint gonna fall victim
to the April showers
and the tombstone and bouquet of old flowers
powers above who be guiding
a madman at the wheel is the way
we be riding
down to the line
standing on the corner
selling two at a time
you really wanna shock it
that's when you make the exchange
in your pocket lord that's the way it goes
that's the way it is
that's the way it happens
mister or miss
it's a dog eat dog world
that's the truth
especially to the youth you're playing with fire
you'll end up on the funeral pyre and now you've lost
your soul
and to all the youngsters
you're a mystery role
ya think you're running the show
but you're just being used
like a dirty old hole
a model of travesty
ya fallin through gravity
ya try to get a grip but you slip
on your sanity
there's nothing you can do
when you realize it's a picure of you
is it something to reach to
being all boxed up didn't nobody teach you
they're gonna sell you
feed you up and swell ya
like a fool in the frying pan
I aint a fortune teller
Just a realist, a catalyst
and if you get the gist
come closer get it real crisp
it's a dog eat dog world
that's the truth
especially to the youth
ya playing with fire
you're playing with fire
you'll end up on the funeral pyre
and now we're living
in a cage
and if you aint got it made
it's a struggle not to fade
it's all part of the game
but nobody comes clean
or wanna name any names
they blame the neighborhood
for something so sad
originated from a diplomatic bag
I see a face in a orange haze
it's just a phase a binge
but I'd call it a craze
behaviour patterns going sixes
and sevens see
heaven don't exist but hell's come to get thee
mars bars, sodas, chips all you touch
and that's why you aint lookin up to much
so come out of the nosedive
stop the music or you'll be dead as you arrive
so come out of the nosedive
kill the sound or you'll be dead as you arrive
ya playin with fire.
