Vision in the centre, a command in any hand
Throwing shadows of black all across the land
Making it look so easy, making it look so grand
You could hold a golden chalice
And he would take it from your hand
He really was a hero, always the hero to me
But don't be mistaken, look closer and you'll see
He was the sorcerer
He was the sorcerer
Feeling that you're pa**ing through an endless space in time
A feeling so unreal that you want to leave behind
And even in the darkness I would not lend a hand
You got the power more than I can understand
So leave well alone, you must be foolin'
Ooh, don't play with fire, you must be foolin'
Don't mess with the Sorcerer - shout it out!
Don't mess with the Sorcerer - shout it out!
He can only bring you sorrow, even tho' he's still around
And everybody knows, he'll always let you down
But if you need somebody, he will always be your friend
But watch the dark behind his eyes, you'll be the loser once again
So leave well alone, you must be foolin'
Ooh, don't play with fire, you must be foolin'
Don't mess with the Sorcerer - shout it out!
Don't mess with the Sorcerer - shout it out!
No matter what you do, he can take you by the hand
Movin' in on you, the hero in his Never-Never land
Don't mess with the Sorcerer - shout it out!
Don't mess with the Sorcerer - shout it out!
