Kirin J Callinan - The Teacher lyrics

We were close As close as skin can be Together five days a week at least Together from 9 till 3 You showed me 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 cla** I did all my homework And you would always Let me pa** I sat your test I studied overtime But when you had me In your detention The pleasure was all mine But you're not my teacher Anymore Out of bounds! Behind the cricket nets You caught me with my pants down An you found My cigarettes 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 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
