I was sitting in the classroom
我端坐在教室里
Trying to look intelligent
努力使自己看起來聰明伶俐
In case the teacher looked at me
因為說不定某一刻,老師便會看到我
She was long and she was lean
老師她纖細高挑,讓人著迷
She’s a middle-aged dream
是眾多中年男子理想中的伴侶
And that lady means the whole world to me
而對我來說,世上無人可與她相比
It’s a natural achievement Teacher I need you
這真是再自然不過的“壯舉”
Conquering my homework
一邊戰勝作業難題
With her image pounding in my brain
一邊在心中時時把她想起
She’s an inspiration for my graduation
她就是我完成學業的動力
And she helps to keep the classroom sane
她總能把課堂打理得有條有理
Oh teacher I need you like a little child
噢,老師,我需要你,就像小孩一樣需要你
You got something in you to drive a schoolboy wild
你身上有某樣神秘的東西,讓一個中學男孩癡迷
You give me education in the lovesick blues
你教了我相思藍調
Help me get straight come out and say
借它,我才能直抒胸臆,大聲喊出
Teacher I … teacher I … teacher I …
老師,我……老師,我……老師,我……
Teacher I need you
老師,我需要你
I have to write a letter
我必須要寫一封信
Tell about my feelings
傾訴我內心的感情
Just to let her know the scene
只是為了讓她知道,我心中的憧憬
Focus my attention
我必須要集中精力
On some further education
進一步學習
In connection with the birdies and the bees1)
求愛的本領
So I’m sitting in the classroom
所以,我端坐在教室里
I’m looking like a zombie
看上去神思恍惚,毫無生氣
I’m waiting for the bell to ring
焦急地盼著下課鈴響起
I’ve got John Wayne2) stances
我如約翰·韋恩那般剛毅俊朗
I’ve got Erroll Flynn3) advances
又像埃羅爾·弗林一樣風流倜儻
And it doesn’t mean a doggone thing
可對你來說,那什么也算不上
I was sitting in the classroom
我端坐在教室里
Trying to look intelligent
努力使自己看起來聰明伶俐
In case the teacher looked at me
因為說不定某一刻,老師便會看到我
She was long and she was lean
