I've had enough of danger And people on 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 But if you don't, just let me go * 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 that you're mine Because it ain't no joy for an uptown boy Those teacher has told him good bye Good bye, good bye When you were just a stranger And I was at your feet I didn't feel the danger Now I feel the heat That look in your eyes Telling me "no" So you think that you love me Know that you need me I wrote the song I know it's wrong Just let me go * Repeat Who's the teacher? Are you the student? Boy, I've just got to say You're the teacher When you say that you need me That you'll never leave me I know you're wrong You're not that strong Let me go And teacher, there are things that I still have to learn But the one thing I have is my pride So I don't want to learn to hold you, touch you Think that you're mine 'Cause there ain't no joy, just an uptown boy who just isn't willing to try I'm so cold inside Maybe just one more try
