I've had enough of danger

And people on the street

I'm looking out for angels

Just trying to find some peace

Now I think it's time

That you let me know

So if you love me say you love me

If you don't then just let me go

'Cos teacher

There are things that I don't want to learn

And the last one I had

Made me cry

So I don't want to learn to

Hold you touch you

Think you're mine

‘Cause it ain't no joy

For an uptown boy

Whose teacher has told him good-bye good-bye good-bye

When you were just a stranger

And I was at your feet I felt no danger

I didn't feel the danger

Now I feel the heat

It’s telling me no

So if you think that you love me

Know that you need me

I wrote the song

I know it's wrong

Just let me go

And teacher

There are things

I don't want to learn

Oh the last one I had

Made me cry

So I don't want to learn to

Hold you touch you

Think that you're mine

Because it ain't no joy

For an uptown boy

Whose teacher has told him good-bye good-bye

So when you say that you need me

You'll never leave me

I know you're wrong you're not that strong

Just let me go

Teacher

There are things

That I still have to learn

But the one thing I have is my pride

I don't want to learn to hold you touch you

Think that you're mine

Because there ain't no joy

For an uptown boy

Who just isn't willing to try

I'm so cold inside
