The Police – Don’t Stand So Close To Me lyrics
Young teacher, the subject
Of schoolgirl fantasy
She wants him so badly
Knows what she wants to be
Inside her there’s longing
This girl’s an open page
Book marking – she’s so close now
This girl is half his ageDon’t stand, don’t stand so
Don’t stand so close to meHer friends are so jealous
You know how bad girls get
Sometimes it’s not so easy
To be the teacher’s pet
Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry
Wet bus stop, she’s waiting
His car is warm and dryDon’t stand, don’t stand so
Don’t stand so close to meLoose talk in the classroom
To hurt they try and try
Strong words in the staffroom
The accusations fly
It’s no use, he sees her
He starts to shake and cough
Just like the old man in
That book by NabakovDon’t stand, don’t stand so
Don’t stand so close to meDon’t stand, don’t stand so
Don’t stand so close to me
