Lyrics You're Gonna Get Your Fingers Burned - The Alan Parsons Project

Watch me closely, catch my eye
If you do, I beg you to remind me
Who is stronger, who is weak
Of those who seek and don't know where to find me

Ask me why
I don't know
You ask me why
And I say

Now you see me, now you don't
I thought by now you'd learned
You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get burned)
You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get burned, burned)

Watch me closely, understand
That what you see is only an illusion
If I'm wrong and you are right
Then I will light your darkness with confusion

You ask me why
I don't know
Ask me why
I say

Chances are you're playing with fire
I thought by now you'd learned
You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get) yeah
(You know you're gonna get burned)
You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get) uh-huh
(You know you're gonna get burned, burned)
Watch me!

Watch me closely, be aware
That all I do is only to surprise you
Every move is sleight of hand
And every word is planned to mystify you

You ask me why
I don't know
You ask me why
And I say

Don't get fooled a second time
I thought by now you'd learn
You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get) yeah, yeah
(You know you're gonna get burned)
You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get burned, burned)

You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get burned)
You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get burned, burned)
You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get burned)
You're gonna get your fingers burned (you know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get)
(You know you're gonna get burned, burned)
