(Sting)
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 age


Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me

Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me


Her 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 dry


Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
Don't stand, don't stand so

Don't stand so close to me

Loose 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 Nabokov

Don't stand, don't stand so

Don't stand so close to me
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me


Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me

[Back:] (Please don't stand so close to me)
(Repeat to fade)
