WELL, THE DAWN WAS COMIN'
HEARD HIM RINGIN' ON MY BELL
HE SAID, MY NAME'S THE TEACHER
OH, THAT IS WHAT I CALL MYSELF
AND I HAVE A LESSON
THAT I MUST IMPART TO YOU
IT'S AN OLD EXPRESSION
BUT I MUST INSIST IT'S TRUE
JUMP UP, LOOK AROUND
FIND YOURSELF SOME FUN
NO SENSE IN SITTIN' THERE
HATIN' EVERYONE
NO MAN'S AN ISLAND
AND HIS CASTLE ISN'T HOME
THE NEST IS FULL OF NOTHIN'
WHEN THE BIRD HAS FLOWN
SO, I TOOK A JOURNEY
THREW MY WORLD INTO THE SEA
WITH ME WENT THE TEACHER
WHO FOUND FUN INSTEAD OF ME
HEY, MAN, WHAT'S THE PLAN
WHAT WAS THAT YOU SAID
SUN-TANNED, DRINK IN HAND
LYIN' THERE IN BED
I TRY TO SOCIALISE
BUT I CAN'T SEEM TO FIND
WHAT I WAS LOOKIN' FOR
GOT SOMETHIN' ON MY MIND
THEN THE TEACHER TOLD ME
IT HAD BEEN A LOT OF FUN
THANKED ME FOR HIS TICKET
AND ALL THAT I HAD DONE
HEY, MAN, WHAT'S THE PLAN
WHAT WAS THAT YOU SAID
SUN-TANNED, DRINK IN HAND
LYIN' THERE IN BED
I TRY TO SOCIALISE
BUT I CAN'T SEEM TO FIND
WHAT I WAS LOOKIN' FOR
GOT SOMETHIN' ON MY MIND
