Jinjer – Teacher, Teacher! lyrics

[Intro]
Good evening kids, take your seats, open up your Bibles
I'm gonna chase down some rivals so keep your eyes wide open
Your young soul lost control, make your first foul
This is my duty to set the grounds

[Verse 1]
She grabbed my hair and took me and placed me in front of the class
She gave a hint I was a clue of the past
I’m in the middle of the holy of holies
I have no worries
I saw fuzzy icons on the wall
I saw needles and stones
So she put a paper bag on my head
She pointed finger at me and then she said
"Dear Lord forgive me as I'm slapping, slapping
Slapping this sinful child"
Bang your head against the wall, shout, shout
What is wrong and what is right
She chose me because I'm
Mercy, mercy
Merciful
[?] first pharaoh who will punish you

[Chorus]
Will the prejudice let us down?
We stand firmly on our ground
Don’t let the school make a fool of you because your teachers may be fools too
Will the prejudice let us down?
We stand firmly on our ground
Don't let the school make a fool of you because your teachers may be fools too

[Verse 2]
Laws chalked on the blackboard
Come be erased until it gets boring
Then he spoke, and then she choked
Tell dark convictions, her soul withering
She made a pulse in her verbal overdose
My paper bag slipped down on the floor
I took a look around
There was no sanctuary
Desk is empty, the school was all imaginary

[Bridge]
Teacher, teacher
Self-proclaimed preacher
Endure the flak [?]
Medieval scripture shoved down in my throat
So keep your monologues, the writing has been wrote
I am a bad example of order
This life is not a prison, and you are not the warden
Please teacher, teacher
Leave us alone
As we accept that this is from now on

[Chorus]
Will the prejudice let us down?
We stand firmly on our ground
Don't let the school make a fool of you because your teachers may be fools too
Will the prejudice let us down?
We stand firmly on our ground
Don't let the school make a fool of you

[Outro]
Your idol screamed to me
Throwing shame on my face
As I turn away from infamy and disgrace
I smile to you
'Cause I want you to see
How I break the rules
In front of your trinity
Your idol screamed to me
Throwing shame on my face
As I turn away from infamy and disgrace, oh
I smile to you
I smile to you
