"Teacher Teacher" by 38 Special

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 nothing 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 going 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 going on, oh

Teacher, teacher, can you teach me
Teacher, teacher, can you reach me
Teacher, teacher, can you teach me
Teacher, teacher, oh yeah
Teacher, teacher
Teacher, teacher
