Lyrics

WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME

WAY UP IN SEATTLE
WAS A TEACHER NAMED MARY KAY.
WITH ONE OF HER STUDENTS
YOU KNOW SHE HAD HER WAY.
INSTEAD OF THE ABCS
SHE TAUGHT HIM THE BIRDS AND BEES
ALL DAY.
WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?
WAS I TOO MUCH OF A GEEK?

WHY DIDN?T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?
WHY DIDN?T SHE GIVE ME A PEEK?
IF DO UNTO OTHERS
IS THE GOLDEN RULE.
WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?

MRS. JOHNSON TOOK HER STUDENT
TO A SLEAZY LAS VEGAS MOTEL.
SHE WAS HIS HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER
YOU KNOW SHE RANG HIS BELL.
INSTEAD OF THE S.A.T HE?S GETTIN SOME L.U.V
AND THAT?S SWELL.

WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?
WASN?T I MAN ENOUGH?
WHY DIDN?T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?
WHY DIDN?T SHE SHOW ME HER STUFF?
IF DO UNTO OTHERS
IS THE GOLDEN RULE,
WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?

ALL OVER THE COUNTRY
TEACHERS ARE RAISIN? BOYS? HOPES.
THEY'RE GIVIN? PRIVATE LESSONS
SHOWING THESE STUDENTS THE ROPES.
TEACHING BIOLOGY AND ANATOMY UP CLOSE

WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?
WAS I TOO MUCH OF A GEEK?
WHY DIDN?T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?
WHY DIDN?T SHE GIVE ME A PEEK?
IF DO UNTO OTHERS
IS THE GOLDEN RULE
WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL


WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?
WASN'T I MAN ENOUGH
WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?
WHY DIDN'T SHE SHOW ME HER STUFF
WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
IF A GROWN UP WOMAN?S
GONNA ACT LIKE A FOOL
AND DO NASTY THINGS
THAT MAKE A YOUNG BOY DROOL
IF DO UNTO OTHERS
IS THE GOLDEN RULE
WHY DIDN'T MY TEACHER DO ME
WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?
