Lyrics
never did I understand the words
til I bought the CD
never did I understand the world
til I saw it on TV
never did I understand witches
which one am I supposed to like
never did I understand stitched
til I fell off my bike
one lesson I'll never learn (the one about)
playing with fire and getting burned (cant figure it out)
cuz you burn me like fire and I dont get burned
dont get burned
never did I understand the words
til I heard the song again
never did I understand the birds
til the bees flew in
never did I understand posession
til I got busted with a gram
never did I trust a politician
how dumb do you think I am
one lesson I'll never need (the one about)
play with knives and you bleed (cant figure it out)
cuz you cut me like a knife and I will not bleed
one lesson I'll never learn (the one about)
playing with fire and getting burned (cant figure it out)
cuz you burn me like fire and I dont
cuz you burn me like fire and I dont get
cuz you burn me like fire and I dont get burned
dont get burned
dont get burned
