An apple for the teacher

That seems the thing to do

Because I want to learn

About romance from you.

An apple for the teacher

To show I'm meek and mild,

If you insist on saying

That I'm just a problem child.

You'll get all my attention,

Your wish will be my rule;

And maybe you'll be good to me

And keep me after school

An apple for the teacher

That's how I'd better start,

The after while you may give in

And let me bring my heart



An apple for the teacher

Will always do the trick,

When you don't know

Your lesson in arithmetic

An apple for the teacher

Will meet with great success

If you forgot to memorize

The Gettysburg Address

A little bit of glamour

A charm that's cute and quaint;

And he'll excuse your grammar

And believe you're what you ain't.

You may be just a lemon

But he'll think you're a peach

Just bring an apple for the teacher

When he starts to teach
