Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Did you say I've got a lot to learn?
Well, don't think I'm tryin' not to learn
Since this is the perfect spot to learn
Teach me tonight
[Verse 2]
Starting with the ABC of it
Gettin' right down to the XYZ of it
Help me solve the mystery of it
Teach me tonight
[Verse 3]
The sky's a blackboard high above you
And if a shooting star goes by
I'll use that star to write, I love you
A thousand times across the sky
[Verse 4]
One thing isn't very clear, my love
Teachers shouldn't stand so near, my love
Graduation's almost here, my love
You'd better teach me tonight
[Verse 5]
I've played love scenes in a flick or two
And I've also met a chick or two
But I still can learn a trick or two
Hey, teach me tonight
[Verse 6]
I who thought I knew the score of it
Kind of think I should know much more of it
Off the wall, the bed, the floor of it
Hey, teach me tonight
[Verse 7]
The midnight hours come slowly creepin'
When there's no one there but you
There must be more to life than sleepin'
Single in a bed for two
[Verse 8]
What I need most is post graduate
What I feel is hard to articulate
If you want me to matriculate
You'd better teach me tonight
[Verse 9]
What you get for lessons
Teach me, come on and teach me
Teach me tonight
