It's been in the back of your head, eating you for much too long.
Now you had to take a chance, but no doubt you chose the wrong.
Putting on your big boy act before a man who bows to none.

Feeling safe with a silky suit, armed only with your tongue.

You'll learn it when you try
If you play with the piranha you will die.

Learned all the coolest moves and thought that should be enough.
But it won't help at all when it's really getting tough.
You'd need something to back it all, like a backbone or a gun.
When you're served as the main dish it'll be too late to run.

You'll learn it when you try
If you play with the piranha you will die.
