Eb                                          Gm
Young teacher, the subject, of schoolgirl fantasy
Eb                                      Gm
She wants him, so badly, knows what she wants to be
Eb                                    Gm
Inside her, there's longing, this girl's an open page
Eb                                                 Gm
Bookmarking, she's so close now, this girl is half his age

[Chorus]
D          A       D      A            Bm      G           Em/A    A 
Don't stand, don't stand so, don't stand so close to me   2x

Eb                                   Gm
Her friends are, so jealous, you know how bad girls get
Eb                                        Gm
Sometimes it's, not so easy, to be the teacher's pet
Eb                              Gm
Temptation, frustration, so bad it makes him cry
Eb                                     Gm
Wet bus stop, she's waiting, his car is warm and dry

[Kembali ke Chorus]

Eb                                         Gm
Loose talk in, the classroom, to hurt they try and try
Eb                                           Gm
Strong words, in the staff room, the accusations fly
Eb                                Gm
It's no use, he sees her, he starts to shake and cough
Eb                              Gm
Just like the old man, in that book by Nabokov

[Kembali ke Chorus]
