Hey Teacher Lyrics

You keep on telling me these pretty lies
Well I'm just a man and want you instead of the drugs that get me high
You keep on telling me these pretty lies
Well I'm just a man and want you instead of the drugs that get me high

You're all around me like a freight elevator
You put things in me and say I'll see you later

Every time I raise the courage up to talk
My teacher says go to the board with a piece of chalk
I'll never talk out of turn again in class

Will it be alright if I see you tonight
Well, I feel like a bird in a cage
For you to notice me, Well I'd take out a knife
Suicide right on the stage

I'm like a fish on a hook
Water splash into the brook
Well, teacher says she's twice my age
Hey teacher could you ease my pain

I can only watch you so long
I can only watch you so long, so long

You keep on telling me these pretty lies
Well I'm just a man and want you instead of the drugs that get me high
You keep on telling me these pretty lies
Well I'm just a man and want you instead of the drugs that get me high

I'll never talk out of turn again in class

Will it be alright if I see you tonight
Well, I feel like a bird in a cage
For you to notice me, Well I'd take out a knife
Suicide right on the stage

I'm like a fish on a hook
Water splash into the brook
Well, teacher says she's twice my age
Hey teacher could you ease my pain

I can only watch you so long
I can only watch you so long, so long
I can only watch you so long
I can only watch you so long, so long

Who's your teacher's pet?

Louis XIV was a quartet indie rock group from San Diego, California, formed in April 2003. They were formed from the band Convoy. Their first album, Louis XIV, was released in November 2003, followed two years later by the release of their EP Illegal Tender in January of 2005. Later that year they released their second album The Best Little Secrets Are Kept which entered into the US Billboard 200 and peaked at #159.

From this second album they released two singles, The Best Little Secrets Are Kept which entered the US Singles chart, and God Killed The Queen which entered the UK Singles chart. In September of 2007 the band released a second EP entitled The Distances From Everyone To You and in January of 2008 released their third album Slick Dogs And Ponies from which they have released the single Air Traffic Control which entered into the US Singles chart.

The band's lyrics have resulted in them causing much controversy and subsequently they have been banned from playing live gigs in the state of Alabama. Their lyrics are filled with double meanings and sexual connotations, and are often condescending towards women.

The band split in 2010. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
