Dont Stand So Close To Me Lyrics

Artist: The Police
Album: Dont Stand So Close To Me

Young teacher the subject
Of schoolgirl fantasy
She wants him so badly
Knows what she wants to be
Inside her there's longing
This girl's an open page
Book marking She's so close now
This girl is half his age

Don't stand to close to me

Her friends are so jealous
You know how bad girls get
Sometimes it's not so easy
To be the teacher's pet
Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry
Wet bus stop, whe's waiting
His car is warm and dry

Don't stand so close to me

Loose talk in the classroom
To hurt they try and try
Strong words in the staffroom
The accusations fly
It's no use
He sees her
He starts to shake he starts to cough
Just like the old man in
That famous book by Nabakov

Don't stand so close to me

by Caitriona on 5/14/2008 9:04am The word famous at the end isnt in the song.
by Lukas on 5/23/2008 7:33am Yep that word famous is not in the song.Also wat a great song remninds me of myself so much im a teahcer and only 23.
by George on 5/27/2008 5:40am You're right about 'famous'. I'm using the lyric as an example of the underestimated strength of song lyrics for my "Writers Group" today. The others I like are The Pet Shop Boys "When I left,I left from the station with a rucksack and much trepidation", and Gilbert O'Sullivan's "As I drink my Napoleon Shandy......look it up!
by Mikhail on 6/5/2008 10:08am the song also says "he starts to shake and cough", not "He starts to shake he starts to cough." As to the the "famous" it doesn't say it but it is a famous book regardless "Lolita" by vladimir nabokov, and thats how his name is spelt nabokov not nabakov. Always good to see historical refferences in classic rock, for instance "we didn't start the fire" by billy joel.
by m on 6/9/2008 3:25am in the '86 version the word famous is in the song
by Holly on 6/14/2008 9:08pm This song reminds me of me in more ways then one haha. Love this song, thanks for the lyrics.
by Mike on 6/22/2008 5:15pm In the 1986 version the word famous is in the song.
by kelly on 7/9/2008 10:25am Love This Song Reminds Me Of Stuf Lol x
by hikari on 7/20/2008 11:49am Ah..this song makes me think of an idea for a movie that I had. Except the girl isn't half his age. And he's a college student who, despite being 18, is so smart he's about to graduate. And he's training to be a teacher so he helps out with her class and she gradually falls in love with him. ANd her "friends" that are jealous is her archrival Lana. But despite the differences it stil reminds me.
by wow on 7/23/2008 5:52pm wow these r wrong
by Echo on 7/25/2008 12:28pm They are pretty accurate actually. Except like one word.
by IZZY on 7/26/2008 6:27pm The word Famous is in the song but only in the 86 version.
by Blargh on 9/8/2008 3:45pm These lyrics aren't what I expected. They're too inaccurate. Just listened to the song bout an hour ago. It's one of my favorites.
by Kaylee on 9/21/2008 8:54pm Some of these lyrics are wrong, but is this song about a relastionship between a teacher and a student?
by Angie on 10/6/2008 7:36pm Love Sting. He is my all time favorite. beautiful song and lyrics. nobody can't beat Sting. love him.
by Joe on 10/13/2008 9:02pm Hey guys, these lyrics are exactly accurate if you listening to the 1986 version of the song, different tempo, a little slower, different lyrics that the first release.
by starfish on 10/18/2008 2:49pm this is one of the most realistic songs ive ever heard...nice!!
by umm on 12/7/2008 11:59pm My friends student teacher used to hit on her all the time and sing this song to her!!!!!! BAH!! ew.
by Segal on 2/13/2009 1:50pm Amazing song. though, its Nabokov, not Nabakov...
by La Policia on 2/23/2009 1:36pm I absoutly love this song!!!! The tune and the words are amazing!!!
by Great song great lyrics Sting rules on 3/6/2009 4:54pm W00t Please dont stand so close to me!
by Michelle Z on 3/9/2009 6:54pm This song soooo reminds me of my principal 20 years ago. I wonder if he's still yummy!!
by Nabakov Nabokov on 3/13/2009 4:46am Doesn't matter how the guy spelt his name. In the song (original Police version) Sting clearly pronounces it NAB-A-KOV
by TRDK on 3/18/2009 5:46pm I wnat to be the guy:). No but really great song awsome lyrics. Deep yet catchy. Sting does a great job of making music. If any body wants to learn anymore songs try brass monkey by the besti boys stupid by funny
by Marissa on 3/29/2009 5:45pm the word famous is at the end of the '86 version.
by Doug on 4/3/2009 8:48am How many times are people going to say that the word famous is in the 86 version? Dang, we get it already!

by Donny on 8/31/2009 12:16pm It's funny how it's the teachers who get fired even though the schoolgirls obviously keep having a crack.
