I am a 48 year old musician currently residing in Linlithgow Bridge, West Lothian, Scotland having been born in Kirkcaldy, Fife on October 3rd 1956. My primary instrument is guitar, on which I am self-taught, and which I have played for 35 years, having been originally taught the trumpet at school. I previously gigged around Scotland as a solo performer (guitar/vocals) where I performed a selection of covers, alongside a substantial amount of self penned original material. I also toured Europe on two occasions, having played in Holland, Denmark and Greece,and have had my compositions played on both local radio (Radio Forth, Radio Borders, Scot FM and Central FM) as well as national radio (Radio 1 on The Friday Rock Show!) and played support to ASWAD - (remember them!?)

Story behind the song

I just came up with the main riff and it all developed from there.
The lyrics are based around the fact that cryptically everyone knows someone driven by Richard

Lyrics

when you played with fire, you knew you may get burned
you played your three times table then your two times table turned
you seemed to have it your way, though it tasted bitter-sweet
in giving off your ultra-cool, you were turning up the heat 

you played with fire (and you were burned)
you played with fire (although you never learned) 

it started out as intrigue but it got under your skin
while pledging love for only me you were playing the field with them
in giving of your best shot you used up all your luck
as friction kept increasing the patches came un-stuck 

you played with fire (to you nothing strange)
you played with fire (you know you'll never change) 

friction made the sparks fly the tinder caught alight
at your own hand the flames were fanned deception burning bright
in constant threat of trouble you spurned the golden rule
the pot was kept at boiling you were never short of fuel 

you played with fire (man on a mission)
you played with fire (no chance of remission)
you played with fire (when are you gonna cool down)
you played with fire (the fire of a clown) 

tears can't put it out
