The Lemon Twigs - The Student Becomes The Teacher

Shane does say
On a tired summer day
Mom and Dad, I'd like to make a change
Or I'll slip away

One of the school days
On the TV set does play
Something clicks inside his little brain
The answer is plain

The student becomes the teacher
And the teacher becomes the principal
And the principal dies
And everybody cries
They remember him alive, you see
I want that for me

Dad does say
Quaking, there's just no way
Don't you ever turn on channel five
And we want you alive

Life's not fair
These kids they just don't care
I'll never let you step foot in that place!
(Don't slip away)

And the student becomes the teacher
And the teacher becomes the principal
And the principal dies
And everybody cries
They remember him alive, you see
I want that for me

Oh please believe me
I'm asking you to try
Stay beside me
Well I just can't stay

Ah-ah-ahhhhhh
Ah-ah-ahhhhhh
Ah-ah-ahhhhhh-ahhhhhhhh
