It’s the first day of school, and I can hardly wait
to meet my teachers for the year.
I wonder if they’ve heard what I was like before,
What kind of stories did they hear?
Cuz I’ve had a lot of problems
with some of my teachers in the past.
But this is gonna be a great year. At least I hope it is at last!
And when I finally meet my teachers,
when that school bell rings today
I’m gonna ask them just one question
And I wonder what they’ll say...
“Teacher, tell me what you see...
Won’t you tell me what you see?
Teacher, tell me what you see ... in Me !”
Well I’m the first kid at the school, cuz I can hardly wait
To meet my teachers for the year.
I wonder if they know about what I was like before,
or am I finally in the clear?
Cuz I’ve had a lot of problems
With some of my teachers in the past
But this is gonna be my best year
At least I hope it is at last !
And when I finally meet my teachers
When that school bell rings today
I’m gonna ask them for a favor
And I wonder what they’ll say,
“Teacher, tell me what you see...
Won’t you tell me what you see?
Teacher, tell me what you see ... in Me !”
