Elton John - Teacher I Need You Lyrics
Music by elton johnLyrics by bernie taupinAvailable on the album dont shoot me Im only the piano playerI was sitting in the classroomTrying to look intelligentIn case the teacher looked at meShe was long and she was leanShes a middle-aged dreamAnd that lady means the whole world to meIts a natural achievementConquering my homeworkWith her image pounding in my brainShes an inspirationFor my graduationAnd she helps to keep the classroom saneOh teacher I need you like a little childYou got something in you to drive a schoolboy wildYou give me education in the lovesick bluesHelp me get straight come out and sayTeacher i, teacher i, teacher i, teacher I need youI have to write a letterTell about my feelingsJust to let her know the sceneFocus my attentionOn some further educationIn connection with the birdies and the beesSo Im sitting in the classroomIm looking like a zombieIm waiting for the bell to ringIve got john wayne stancesIve got erroll flynn advancesAnd it doesnt mean a doggone thing
