18 When I Kissed The Teacher

Written by: (B. Andersson / B. Ulvaeus)

Everybody screamed
when I kissed the teacher
and they must have thought they dreamed
when I kissed the teacher
all my friends at school
they had never seen the teacher blush
he looked like a fool
nearly petrified ‘cos he was

Taken by surprise
when I kissed the teacher
couldn’t quite believe his eyes
when I kissed the teacher
my whole class went wild
as I held my breath
the world stood still
but then he just smiled
I was in the seventh heaven
when I kissed the teacher

One of these days
gonna tell him I dream
of him every night
one of these days
gonna show him I care
gonna teach him a lesson alright

I was in a trance
when I kissed the teacher
suddenly I took the chance
when I kissed the teacher
leaning over me
he was trying to explain
the laws of geometry
and I couldn’t help it
I just had to kiss the teacher

One of these days
gonna tell him I dream
of him every night
one of these days
gonna show him I care
gonna teach him a lesson alright

What a crazy day
when I kissed the teacher
all my sense had flown away
when I kissed the teacher
my whole class went wild
as I held my breath
the world stood still
but then he just smiled
I was in the seventh heaven
when I kissed the teacher
