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 Nabakov      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
