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

you know it’s a jungle out there

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 learn 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

teacher teacher can you reach me
teacher teacher can you teach me
