The Teacher |
| We were close |
| As close as skin can be |
| Together five days a week at least |
| Together from 9 till 3 |
| You showed me the truth |
| Backed with evidence |
| I could learn the ways of the world |
| In a single dance |
| But you’re not my teacher |
| And I don’t want you |
| I’m gonna save my young mind |
| For that teacher |
| Who’s only teaching me |
| I was your pet |
| The favourite in the class |
| I did all my homework |
| And you’d always |
| Let me pass |
| I sat your test |
| I stayed overtime |
| But when you had me |
| In your detention |
| The pleasure was all mine |
| But you’re not my teacher |
| No you’re not my teacher, anymore |
| Out of bounds! |
| Behind the cricket nets |
| You caught me with my pants down |
| And you found my ciggarettes |
| I skipped school! |
| Wagged my tail for the day |
| But when you cried my name |
| In the playground I came |
| Straight away |
| By next year! |
| You were no longer there |
| Was a swinging door |
| Of substitutes |
| All with different coloured hair |
| But you’re not my teacher |
| You’re not my teacher |
| You’re not my teacher |
| Anymore |
| You’re not my teacher |
| Save my young mind |
| You’re not my teacher |
| Save my young mind |
| I don’t want you |
| I’m gonna save my young mind |
| For that teacher |
| Who’s only teaching me |
| You’re not my teacher |
| Save my young mind |
| You’re not my teacher |
| Save my young mind |
| You’re not my teacher (you're not my teacher) |
| Save my young mind (save my young mind) |
| You’re not my teacher (save my young mind) |
| No you’re not my teacher! |
| Save my young mind! |
| Save my young mind! |
