A song by the police about a magical apprentice who eventually surpassed his master.
(Lyrics)
You consider me the young apprentice
Caught between the scylla and charybidis
Hypnotized by you if I should linger
Staring at the ring around your finger
I have only come here seeking knowledge
Things they wouldnt teach me of in college
I can see the destiny you sold
Turned into a shining band of gold
Ill be wrapped around your finger
Ill be wrapped around your finger
Mephistopheles is not your name
But I know what youre up to just the same
I will listen hard to intuition
And you will see it come to its fruition
Ill be wrapped around your finger
Ill be wrapped around your finger
Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanish in the air youll never find me
I will turn your flesh to alabaster
Then you will find your servant is your master
And youll be wrapped around my finger
Youll be wrapped around your finger
Youll be wrapped around your finger
(Lyrics)
You consider me the young apprentice
Caught between the scylla and charybidis
Hypnotized by you if I should linger
Staring at the ring around your finger
I have only come here seeking knowledge
Things they wouldnt teach me of in college
I can see the destiny you sold
Turned into a shining band of gold
Ill be wrapped around your finger
Ill be wrapped around your finger
Mephistopheles is not your name
But I know what youre up to just the same
I will listen hard to intuition
And you will see it come to its fruition
Ill be wrapped around your finger
Ill be wrapped around your finger
Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanish in the air youll never find me
I will turn your flesh to alabaster
Then you will find your servant is your master
And youll be wrapped around my finger
Youll be wrapped around your finger
Youll be wrapped around your finger
Sting and The Police performed Wrapped Around your Finger at the Synchronicity concert that was later turned into an amazing DVD.

Get the bacon wrapped ta tas mug.The extant definitions are good; however, no one, so far, has mentioned the origin of the phrase. Here is is, based on a number of years associating with over the road drivers – and a couple of summers running moonshine down the mountains of North Carolina. In the mid-20th century, police would put two rubber hoses, connected to a sensor, across a highway. Speeders triggered the sensor based on how quickly they crossed both hoses. Truckers, often trying to make a living despite the regulations on speed, hated what they called whammys. A clever trucker knew that if he applied the trailer's brakes at the right moment and then released them, he could rip the hoses from the roadway and "wrap them around the axle" of the tractor-trailer.
"I popped that whammy and wrapped around the axle – nearly ripped the box out'a that smokey's front seat."
