38 Special - Teacher, Teacher lyrics

Just when I thought I finally learned my lesson well

There was more to this than meets the eye

And for all the things you taught me, only time will tell

If I'll be able to survive

Oh yeah

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?

Can you tell me all I need to know?

Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?

Or will I fall when you let me go? Oh no

Am I ready for the real world, will I pass the test?

You know it's a jungle out there

Ain't nothin' gonna stop me, I won't be second best

But the joke's on those who believe the system's fair, oh yeah

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?

Can you tell me if I'm right or wrong?

Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?

I wanna know what's goin' on, oh yeah

So the years go on and on, but nothing's lost or won

And what you learned is soon forgotten

They take the best years of your life

Try to tell you wrong from right

But you walk away with nothing

Oh oh

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?

Can you tell me all I need to know?

Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?

Or will I fall when you let me go?

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?

Can you tell me if I'm right or wrong?

Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?

I wanna know what's goin' on, oh

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?

Teacher, teacher, can you reach me?

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me?

Teacher, teacher, ooh yeah

Teacher, teacher

Teacher, teacher
